2. Install the two Bolts and Locknuts and tighten with two 9/16" Wrenches.
Note: The Tow Hitch can be rotated to position the Clevis Pin holes at the top or
bottom depending on how much adjustment you need to adjust the Tow Bar
to level the machine.
Adjusting the Tow Bar Offset
The Tow Bar offset adjusts the trimming distance from the center of the Tow
Vehicle. The straight in line position trimming distance is 29". The first offset
position will trim a distance of 40.5". The second offset position will trim a
distance of 51".
Note: This procedure is easier with the Trimmer disconnected from the Tow Vehicle.
1. Disconnect the Trimmer from the Tow Vehicle.
2. Remove the Snap Safety Pin that is securing the Swivel Frame to the Tow Bar
(Figure 21).
3. Move the Tow bar to the desired offset position, align the holes and reinstall
the Snap Safety Pin (Figure 22).
4. Reattach the Trimmer to the Tow Vehicle.
Adjusting the Kickback Spring tension
If you prefer to have the kickback function return quicker or are trimming thicker
material, the Chain Link can be moved to the outer position to create more
tension.
Tools and Supplies Needed:

7/16" Wrench
Loosen the Chain Link using a 7/16" Wrench and move the Chain Link and
Spring to the outer hole location to increase Spring tension for a quicker return
(Figure 23).
