Refer to Figure 8-2:
7.
Start by assembling blades without shim (#2). Insert
blade bolt (#1) through blade (#3), dish pan (#4), and
flat washer (#5). Temporary secure blade with a used
1 1/8"-12 nut. Draw nut up snug. Do not tighten.
8.
Check blade deflection. If deflection is greater than
3/4", remove blade bolt and reassemble as before
except include shim (#2) in the assembly. Select
shim thickness based on deflection. The greater the
deflection, the thicker the shim.
9.
Once blade deflection is correct, replace used nut
with new locknut (#6) and torque to 450 ft. lbs.
10. If replacing dishpan (#4), nut on gearbox output shaft
should be torqued to 550 ft./lbs. and cotter pin
installed in nut with legs securely bent around nut.

IMPORTANT: Examine blade bolts (#1) and
washers (#5) for excessive wear and replace if worn.
IMPORTANT: Locknuts can loose their ability to
lock properly once removed. Always use a used
blade nut or plain nut in steps 7 & 8 below and then
replace used nut with new locknut in step 9.

Skid Shoes
!
WARNING
Excessive wear on skid shoes can damage side panels, cause
inadequate operation of cutter, and create a safety hazard.
Always replace skid shoes at the first sign of wearing thin.
Inspect skid shoes at the beginning of each cutting
season. Check all skid shoes weekly for wear and
replace if necessary. Original material thickness is 1/4".
They should be replaced when the material thickness is
less than 1/8" at any point. They are interchangeable
from left to right.
Order only genuine Land Pride parts from your local
Land Pride Dealer.
