Sickle mower restoration, some guidance please.

Hi,
daviddakjr, the Cub 22 Mower operator's manual I posted on page 1 of this post, tells how to put the mower on a Cub, beginning on page 14.
The manual has info for 3 different mowers for 3 different models of IH tractors, some info is for all 3 mowers, and some is for a Cub, the pages say when info is for 1 mower.
If the front bracket at the clutch housing has holes with tapers, the mower should have the IH tapered head bolts. They help keep the mower in place, with the vibration it makes.
Tighten the mounting bolts tight, and check them often at first, they can vibrate loose.
Below is a listing at TM Tractor Parts for the bolts, you can look at the pics.

The mower needs a longer bolt at the rear bracket, if it is the bracket like the pic I posted above.

The mower is not hard to put on the Cub, it is easier if you have it in pieces, like the manual shows.
