the trailer support guide on the rear of the chipper frame.
The stabilizer is secured and adjusted with the provided

1. First, be sure that the hitch pole (1) is properly
orientated before mounting. The end of the hitch
pole in which the holes are closest together will be
orientated toward the axle.
2. Place the spacer (2), drawbar mount (3) and drawbar
clamp (4) into position on the hitch pole as shown in
Figure 2.6.
3. Use two M12 x 40mm bolts (5), washers and nylock
nuts to hold the spacer and drawbar pieces in place.
DO NOT tighten securely at this point.
4. Slide hitch pole back until reaching the attachment on
the axle. Use two M12 x 120mm bolts (6), washers,
nuts and torque to 95 N•m.
5. Now go back and torque the drawbar assembly
hardware from step 3 to 95 N•m.
6. Attach coupler assembly (7) to hitch pole with two
M12 x 100mm bolts (8), washers, nuts and torque to
140 N•m.
7. Locate the brake control rod (9) and thread one M10
nut (10) about 4 cm on to the end of brake control
rod with the least amount of threading. Then thread
