Installation of Hydraulic Deflector Kit 5RDF048
(Figures 15 to 20)
1. Install the chute according to the instructions
in the snowblower Operator Manual.
2. Figure 15: Remove the two manual adjustment
knobs (item 1) and bolts (item 2) from each
side of deflector and replace with two 5/16” NC
x 3/4” carriage bolts (item 3), using original
nylon washers (item 5-6) and two 5/16" NC
nylon insert locknuts (item 4). Place one insert
locknut outside the deflector and one (item 6)
between the deflector and the chute base. Do
not tighten completely to allow deflector
movement by hand.
3. Figures 16 & 17: Place the deflector bracket
(item1) on center of chute deflector (item 2),
flush with bottom edge of deflector (detail A).
Using this bracket as a template, drill four 1/2"
holes in deflector.
4. Figure 17: Bolt in place with four 5/16" x 3/4"
allen flat socket head capscrews (item 3) and
5/16" serrated flange nuts (item 4), with the
capscrews heads inside the chute. Tighten so
that capscrews heads sink into deflector
surface.
5. Figure 17: Retract hydraulic cylinder rod
(item 5) completely and secure to deflector
bracket (item 1) and deflector base bracket
(item 6), using the two cylinder pins (item 7)
and the two cotter pins (item 8). Direct the
cylinder ports toward the snowblower center.
6. Figure 17: Open deflector to maximum so that
actuator rod retracts completely. Place
deflector base bracket (item 6) on the center
rear of chute and using the bracket as a
template, drill four 1/2" holes in chute.
7. Figure 17: Bolt deflector base bracket (item 6)
to chute using four 5/16" x 3/4" allen flat socket
capscrews (item 9) and 5/16" serrated flange
nuts (item 10), with the capscrews heads
inside the chute. Tighten so that capscrews
heads sink into chute base surface.
