Loop the 25" tarp strap under the hose. Fasten the •

Assemble the hitch plate to the tractor hitch if: •
- Your tractor has a square (straight) hitch frame, to
help prevent binding.
- Your tractor has a lightweight hitch frame that
needs reinforcement for towing.
Use a 1/2" x 1-1/2" hex bolt, a 7/16" flat washer and a •
1/2" nylock nut. See figure 13.
