2-4 Lift Handle Installation
The various parts of the handle assembly P#(A0273)
must be attached to the container frame. PAGE 13
shows the orientation and location of the components.
Slide the lift handle into the slot in the handle mount
bracket P#(B1730) on the grass container. It may be
necessary to remove the handle grip P#(J0522) to allow
the handle to fit through the slot.
Before attaching the handle, hook one end of the spring
P#(J0176) into the hole on the underside of the handle.
Hook the other end of the spring into the open hole in
the handle mount bracket. Fasten the handle to the
grass container frame by using (1) 3/8”-16 x 2” HHCS
P#(K1208) and (2) 3/8”-16 flange nuts P#(K1215). At this
point the handle can pivot back and forth in the slot of
the handle mount bracket. With the handle in place,
fasten the ball joint P#(K1442) to the end of the latch rod
P#(A0260) (PAGE 8). Tighten to approximately half way
down the threads of the latch rod. Slide the ball joint into
the hole on the latch hook P#(B1529). Use (1) 5/16”-24
hex nut P#(K1444) and (1) 5/16” lock washer P#(K0043)
to fasten the ball joint to the latch hook. Attach the
opposite end of the latch rod into the handle. Fasten the
rod to the handle by using (1) 3/32” x 3/4” cotter pin
P#(K0094). Adjust the rod to allow the hook to close the
box door completely.
Refer to page 13 for exploded parts drawings and
photographs of the complete assembly.
2-5 Aluminum Grass Container
Installation
NOTE: It is recommended that (3) people assist in
mounting the container.
With three people available, two can lower the container
onto the frame while the third person inserts the pivot
pins P#(K0172) through the holes. Insert the pins from
the outside to the inside. Secure with (1) 5/8” washer
P#(K0058) and (1) 5/32” x 2-5/8” hair pin clip P#(K0088)
per pivot pin. Refer to Figures 2-5a and 2-5b.
Reattach the bottom ends of the door opening linkages
to the main frame by using (1) Rue-Ring cotter pin
P#(K1437) per side.
To test the functionality of the dump mechanism, pull the
lift handle away from the unit, and lift upward (Page 13).
The door of the container should open and the box
should pivot clockwise towards the ground.

2-6 Aluminum Grass Container Inlet
Attachment
The inlet will need to be attached to the container. Open
the container, push the inlet, from the inside of the
container through the hole in the container to the
outside. Orient the inlet opening to face the ground. Use
the tabs P#(B1668) inside of the box to hold the inlet in
place. It is recommended that two people Perform this
step. That way, one person on the inside of the container
can position the tabs, while the other person tightens the
bolts. Looking at the outside of the container, the most
difficult tab to tighten down will be the tab at the 4-5
o’clock position. Tighten that tab first. Then proceed to
tighten the others. Figure 2-6a.
