• Perform the following steps to install the slope decal:

  1. Use the following table to determine which decal is applicable for your traction-unit model and equipped attachments:

     Important: If you use more than 1 front attachment, then you must install the lowest applicable slope decal.For example: If you have a Model 31900 traction unit and will use the Model 31970 cutting unit (slope decal A) and the Model 02835 flail (slope decal B), then you must apply slope decal A.

     Important: Refer to your traction unit Operator’s Manual for the amount of required rear weight per your traction unit and attachment configuration.
