Connecting the DR POWER GRADER to your Tow

Vehicle

The following procedure is for connecting the DR POWER

GRADER to your tow vehicle using the Adjustable Tow Bar

with the Hitch Pin configuration (Lawn Tractor) or Ball Hitch

configuration (ATV).

Tools Needed:

• (2) 1/2" Wrench

• (2) 9/16" Wrench

1. Select the appropriate hitch configuration and using two

(2) 1/2" Wrenches, attach the hitch to the Adjustable

Tow Bar with two (2) 5/16"-18 x 2-1/2" Bolts, 5/16" Flat

Washers, and 5/16"-18 Lock Nuts (Figure 13).

• DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN THE SHEAR PIN.

• USE ONLY THE SHEAR PIN PROVIDED; USE OF ANY

OTHER BOLT MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO YOUR DR

POWER GRADER. SEE FIGURE 13.

• THERE ARE TWO (2) EXTRA SHEAR PIN PROVIDED.

STORE THEM WITH YOUR OPERATORS MANUAL OR

IN A SAFE LOCATION. KEEP ONE WITH YOU WHEN

GRADING.

2. Insert the Adjustable Tow Bar into the front of the Yoke

and align the holes between the Yoke and Tow Bar to

suit the correct towing distance from your vehicle

(Figure 13). Using two (2) 9/16" Wrenches, bolt the Tow

Bar in place using the 3/8"-16 Shear Pin and 3/8" Lock

Nut supplied.

Lawn Tractor

1. Set the parking brake on your Lawn Tractor, lift the Tow

Bar, and position the Tow Bar Hitch so that the Hitch

Plate on your Lawn Tractor is in the opening in the Tow

Bar Hitch (Figure 14).

2. Align the hole in the center of the Hitch Plate on your Lawn

Tractor with the holes in the Tow Bar Hitch. Insert and

secure the Safety Snap Pin (Figure 14).

gear. Set the

parking brake on your ATV (if you have one), lift the Tow Bar

on the DR POWER GRADER and slip the Keyhole Hitch over

the Hitch Ball on the ATV (Figure 15). Pull back on the Tow

Bar so the slot in the Keyhole Hitch fits around the Hitch
