5. Fasten the hitch mount arms to the outside of the angle brackets at the front of the tine shield. Use two 5/16" x 3/4" hex bolts and 5/16" hex lock nuts. Tighten and then loosen the nuts slightly. See figure 3. 6. Fasten the hitch mount arms to the outside of the hitch arm mount brackets at the rear of the tine shield. Use two 5/16" x 1" carriage bolts, 5/16" lock washers and 5/16" hex nuts. Do not tighten yet. See figure 3.
11. Assemble the axle bracket on the outside of the angle brackets using two 5/16" x 3/4" hex bolts and 5/16" hex lock nuts. The ends of the axle bracket must point as shown in figure 5. Tighten and then loosen the bolts and nuts slightly. 14. Assemble the spring align wires through the front and rear rows of spring tines, passing the wires in between the hitch mount arms and the tine shield. Bend the ends of the wires to secure them. See figure 8.
5. If the de-thatcher appears to be "jumping" during use, then extra weight should be added to the tine shield. In most conditions extra weight will be needed. Concrete patio blocks are recommended for weight because of their low profile; however any type of weight is suitable if it can be tied down to the shield. Secure weight by using suitable binding material such as rubber tie down straps or wire, fastening to the holes in the shield flange. See figure 11.
