need to flush the midgate drain with water. But first you
will have to remove the drain grate by using the
following steps:
1. Lower the midgate. See Midgate on page 2-13 for
more information.
2. Pull up on the rear side of the drain grate.
3. Tilt the drain grate away from you and pull it
straight out.
Reverse the procedure to reinstall the drain grate.
