necessary. See Figure 13.7.

13.8. The pivot bolt can be removed using a pair of

1 1/2” wrenches. See Figure 13.8.

NOTE: On installation, tighten the pivot bar nut
and bolt until front-back play is gone from the
pivot bar, but not so tight that movement is inhib-
ited by friction.

13.9. The pivot bar can be withdrawn once the pivot

bolt is removed. See Figure 13.9.

NOTE: The pivot bar is off-set to the front. This
provides room for the caster wheels to swivel
without deck interference.

13.10.The bushings that support the pivot bar can be

easily driven out for replacement.

13.11. When installing the pivot bar, tighten the nut until

a slight bind is placed on the pivoting action,
then loosen the bolt until the bind just goes
away.
