INSTALL END SHAFTS from mounting 
package using four 3/8 NC flange bolts. 
NOTE: End shaft can be identified as right or 
left by the decal on the support to which it is 
assembled. Be sure the drive end shaft is 
installed at the proper end of the reel for your 
machine. 
IMPORTANT: Tighten the four bolts evenly to 
pull shaft straight into tube. Plate (A) must 
contact disc (B). When contact is made, torque 
bolts to 35 ft.lbs. (47 N

end shafts, matching rotation decals on center 
tube to decals on reel supports.
