ADJUSTMENTS

RAKE LIFT CYLINDER

Completely lower Rake Lift. Remove the clevis pin (A). Twist lift linkage
(C) so clevis pin end of cylinder extension lines up with holes in attach-
ment lift arm. Replace clevis and cotter pins. Raise and lower Rake Lift
to check for proper clearance.

When the rear rake attachment is lowered while the
machine is in forward motion, the forward speed of
the machine will slow drastically. Operator should be
prepared for a rapid change in speed.

STEERING CHAIN ADJUSTMENT

You will have to remove the nose cone assembly to get a t
steering sprockets. Steering Sprockets (A) should be level
with each other. Check with straight edge. Make any adjust-
ments. Adjust the chain tensioner bolt (B) so that the chain
is snug. Tighten all nuts and bolts in place.

SPEED BOSS

Speed Boss allows the machine to operate at a proper speed
while raking sand traps on golf courses. This speed boss has
been factory set at an average speed of 3-4 m.p.h. (5-6.5
kph). The Speed Boss will only limit the speed while the rake
is lowered into the operating position. The speed setting may
be adjusted by turning the Ball Joint (A) counterclockwise to
make the machine operate slower or turn clockwise to go
faster. Tighten jam nut. Check to make sure nothing is bind-
ing and test drive to check desired speed.

For RBS System, Spiker and Grader Box remove the speed
boss arm and the speed boss rod from machine so it does
not interfer with other operations.
