This scraper is a durable piece of equipment and with proper care will yield
many years of trouble free operation. The scraper requires a power source with
TWO 4 way (double acting) hydraulic control valves.
The scraper should be greased at all points where grease fittings are provid-
ed. Connect hydraulic hoses to the tractor and retract lift cylinders to REMOVE
TRANSPORT LOCK PINS (point A), then extend and retract all cylinders several
times to force out any air from the hydraulic cylinders and lines. Check the oil
levels in the tractor hydraulic system and add to maintain the proper level. Care
should be used when adding oil or when disconnecting any oil line to keep all dirt
out of the oil as dirt is a major factor in the failure of hydraulic components.
When the scraper is placed into operation, the operator will have to “feel out”
the amount of depth of cut to obtain maximum loading efficiency. This is usu-
ally accomplished by taking a lesser and more uniform cut; however, some soil
conditions such as loose sand may require a “pumping action” obtained by taking
successive deep cuts and lifting out of cut as the tractor begins to lose power or
traction.
1. After 10 hours work, all bolts should be checked and tightened if necessary.
2. Every 10 hours all grease fittings should be lubricated.
3. After 50 hours work, all bolts should be rechecked and tightened if
necessary. Check wheel bearings and adjust if necessary.
4. After 300 hours work, clean and repack wheel bearings and replace, if
necessary, cutting edges, worn pins, etc.
5. Tighten all wheel bolts after first two hours use. Check daily for two weeks.
Keep torqued to 450 ft. lbs.
6. Maintain tire pressure at 35 to 40 psi on a rear unit, 40 to 50 on a front
unit.
