Set drawbar to the following dimensions:

A-356 mm (14 in.)

NOTE: Two bushings (C) are included with the hitch, if needed. Use largest bushing required to fit in hole.

Fasten using two cap screws (A and B), washers (E) and castellated nuts.

Use washers (E) as required, to locate hole in castellated nuts. Tighten nuts to 244 Nm (185 lb-ft).
