If you are sure that you have the correct pitman, then there is no need to build your own. Go by the local Tractor Supply and measure the Z9298 or Z9892 pitman. Can't remember which number is correct. Rotate the PTO shaft until the pitman moves the knife to the end of the outward stroke. Look at the sections in relation to the guards. The tip of the section should be squarely underneath the guard. If you need to 'register' the knife to align the sections and guards, you will need to adjust the yoke on the drag bar. I believe the long bar that connects to and supports the yoke is called the Drag Bar. On the end of the drag bar there is a ring with a pin through it that secures the yoke. Remove the pin and ring. There will be several yoke washers of various widths inside the yoke. Put these yoke washers on whatever side necesary to reposition the yoke. There is a better description on 'registering the knife' in all versions of the Operator's Manual. Hope this helps.
