The UB Series Rear Blades will fit most Category I
tractors equipped with a standard 3-point hitch. These
blades are designed for use on tractors up to 50
horsepower. For use on larger tractors, extra care is
required and it is strongly suggested that purchasing a
heavier rear blade be considered.
Check the tractor’s 3-point hydraulic lift system. It
should operate up and down smoothly and hold its
position when set. Refer to your tractor owner’s manual
or dealer for any adjustments necessary to put the 3-
point hydraulic lift system in good working order. (I&T
shop manuals will list most specifications and adjustment
instructions – available from most farm equipment
dealers.)
Tractor should be equipped with stabilizer bars,
adjustable sway chains, or sway blocks to keep the
implement from swinging side to side.
Smaller size tractors may need front counter weights to
counter-balance the weight of the implement.
It is recommended that the tractor be equipped with a
Rollover Protection System (ROPS) and a seat belt that
is used.
It is suggested that you mount the main frame on the 3-
point hitch of your tractor before assembling the blade as
follows:
1. Lower the 3-point hitch on your tractor to facilitate
mounting of the main frame of the blade to the tractor.
2. Insert the lift arm pins on the main frame into the ball
sockets in the lift arms of the tractor 3-point hitch. Pin
in place with linch pins (not furnished).
3. Attach the mast of the main frame to the tractor by
installing the tractor center (or top) link with a top link
pin (not furnished). Pin in place with a linch pin (not
furnished).
The main frame of the blade is now installed on the
tractor. You are ready to proceed with assembling the
moldboard and cutting edge assembly to the main frame
as follows:

3. Place the two 1 / 2 ” x 1 1 / 2 ” hex head bolts provided
through the two center holes at the top of the
moldboard assembly into the corresponding holes on
the upper moldboard bracket on the spindle assembly.
(NOTE: The moldboard assembly may be positioned
in the center, 12” to the right, or 12” to the left, accord-
ing to the setting desired.)
4. Tighten all bolts securely.

NOTE: Always use the tractor anti-sway bars, blocks, or
chains to prevent blade side-sway. This is a must when
using the blade in a reverse position.
