extreme forward port of the cylinder.
F. Install the cylinder with two hose ports on the right side of the scraper with the rod end to
the actuating frame, and the grease hole in the rod end bushing facing up. Use the same size
pins as the cylinder on the left side.
G. Install ½” NPT 90° swivel adapters in both ports of the cylinder. Tighten so that the swivel
will be facing toward the rear.
H. Connect a ½” x 18” hose from the forward pipe line on the frame cross-member to the
base (rear) port of the cylinder (same as left cylinder).
I. Connect a ½” x 38” hose from the remaining pipe line on the frame cross-member to the
forward port of the cylinder.
J. Install the 4” x 8” hydraulic cylinder on the rear of the scraper with the rod end connected
to the rear frame section with the grease hole facing up. Insert the 1-1/8” x 3-1/8” square
head pin at the base of the cylinder. Secure with 3/16” x 1 ½” cotter pin. Use 1-1/8” x 3 ½”
square head pin at the rod end of the cylinder and secure with a 3/16” x 1 ½” cotter pin.

½” female threads face toward each other and somewhat to the left of the scraper.

inside the gooseneck. Remove the cast socket halves.
12. Roll the pole and axle assembly directly under the gooseneck, place the cast socket halves
around the ball on the axle. Lower the frame into place so that the socket halves seat into the
gooseneck (If necessary, clamp halves together with C-clamp while inserting into gooseneck).
Replace the 5/8” x 4” bolts and tighten securely. Install long shank grease fitting into hole in
the back side of gooseneck.
13. Install all grease fittings and grease liberally.
14. If available, place assembled scraper on a level floor or pavement and measure the distance
from the cutting edge to floor, on both left and right sides, and then adjust rear axle spindles to
obtain equal distance on both sides.
