Axis 500 4x4 UTV Kołpin UTV switchblade plow 175000 purchased Dec 2023 How my son and I mounted the UTV universal weldment part#21 and the universal mount LH&RH bracket (#12&13) using the square U bolts #42. Remove plastic cover under engine. Just behind front suspension the two U bolts that hold # 21 will need to have one hole on each side drilled in sheet metal (watch out for wires). Do to the frame being where # 9 rear attaching bracket connects to #21 you will not be able to use the (2) #23 spacer plates. You will need to spread with your hands the 2 square U bolts approx 1/4 inch each and use a thick washer instead. The #12&13 bracket and #23 spacer plate goes behind (to the rear) and you will need to drill holes as needed to move bracket to bolt it to #21. After you have it all figured out (loose fit) take off #21 put plastic cover up to U bolts, drill 2 one inch holes in plastic cover, reattach plastic cover. Then assemble and tighten everything up. We used my cordless impact w/ 13mm deep well socket & wrench to speed up the dry runs and the final assembly.
