Hitch Plate Configurations
Universal Hitch Plate Installation
NOTE: Depending on the size and shape of your Lawn Tractor, different Hitch Plate Kits may be used. Pick the
configuration that aligns best with the existing mounting holes and avoids areas with other equipment
such as the gas tank, battery, or electrical wiring. You may need to drill mounting holes if none are
available. See Figure 12 a typical installation.
IN DETERMINING WHICH HITCH PLATE CONFIGURATION TO USE, NOTE THE LOCATION OF THE
BATTERY, FUEL TANK, ELECTRICAL WIRING, ETC.; ON YOUR TRACTOR SO AS NOT TO DAMAGE THEM
WITH THE MOUNTING HARDWARE. DETERMINE THE BEST ORIENTATION OF THE HITCH PLATE TO
AVOID HITTING OTHER ITEMS WHILE DRILLING ANY HOLES.
Follow the mounting instructions provided with your Hitch Plate Kit. If you have difficulty attaching your
