5.12.3 Mud Scraper Adjustment
Ensure that the pneumatic packer tire
has a pressure of 10-15 lbs. There is
no adjustment to the semi-pneumatic
since there is no air pressure. Also
ensure the gap between the packer
tire and the mud scraper is minimal.
Be sure to check mud scraper setting
before seeding and yearly to ensure
proper gap between packer tire and
mud scraper.
For optimal mud clearance set the
mud scraper between 1/16 in. and
1/8 in. from the packer tire
20-7/8"

tained to packer tires as a re-
