4. We have supplied both a 7" to 6" and 8" to 6" Hose Adapter. Determine which best fits your Lawn
Deck Adapter.
5. Slip the Hose Adapter over the cut end of your Lawn Deck Adapter, until they make contact.
6. Position the assembly beside your Tractor and rotate the Hose Adapter so that the Hose Latches
will be located with one on top and one on the bottom of the Adapter (Figure 21).
7. Drill a 3/8" hole through the Hose Adapter and Lawn Deck Adapter Exit Tube at a predrilled hole in
the Hose Adapter (Figure 21) and secure the Adapter in place with a 5/16" Bolt, Nut and Washer by
inserting the Bolt through the drilled hole from the inside the Adapter tube.
8. Attach the Washer and Nut on the outside of the Adapter tube, thus preventing debris from
collecting on the retaining hardware (Figure 21).
9. Repeat Steps 7 and 8, two (2) more times as shown, around the Hose Adapter (Figure 21).
NOTE: There are two (2) holes provided in the Hose Adapter as guides. For ease of assembly, drill the third
hole on top of the Hose Adapter.
10. Tighten the Nuts with a 1/2" Wrench or Socket. Be careful not to over tighten and damage the
Hose Adapter.
11. Re-install the Lawn Deck Adapter.
