3.1. Assemble the hanger rod mounting pins to the
front hanger rod, then install the nylon locking
nuts onto the hanger rod ends. Tighten the nuts
until they are about 1” from the ends of the rod.
See Figure 3.1.
3.2. Slide the shouldered ends of the hanger rod
mounting pins into the slots in the front hanger
brackets, so that the bottom of the rod is roughly
parallel to the ground.
3.3. Install the fixed lift link between the inner and
outer brackets welded near the back of the deck,
on the right side. See Figure 3.3.
NOTE: The spacer tube is outboard of the lift
link, on the bolt. Tightne the bolt to a torque of
70-80 ft.-lbs. using a pair of 3/4” wrenches.
