Remove Existing Parts
At each grab handle on the back corners of the rear-

total) of:
802-203C HFSS 1/2-13X1 1/2 GR5
803-169C NUT HEX FLG. LOCK 1/2-13 PLT.
and two:
These are re-mounted on the new SGS box at
step 15 on page 4.
Note: Existing hardware may vary slightly from parts
called out in these instructions. For example,
instead of flange nuts, there may be separate
washers and there may be a 133-045D strap. Note
such changes, so that parts are correctly re-
installed.
Refer to Figure 4
Step 10 is required only for drills with existing Native
Grass boxes, but is recommended for all drills, to clear
access for mounting the SGS box.

WARNING
!
Negative tongue weight hazard:
Lower the openers on pull-type drills. The weight of a person
on raised openers can cause an unhitched tongue to fly up,
causing a fall and possible serious injury.
