ATTACHING   AND   USING   OPTIONAL   PARTS   –   

RAIL   BLADE   ATTACHMENT:

   

   

1.

 

The   Rail   Blade   attaches   to   the   right   side   or   left   side   of   the   Leveling   
Blade.   To   attach   the   Rail   Blade   remove   the   2   bolts   from   the   45   
degree   wing   and   remove   the   wing   from   the   Leveling   Blade.   Then   
align   the   Rail   blade   to   the   Leveling   Blade   over   the   Leveling   Blade   
section   on   the   outside.   Using   the   same   2   bolts   removed   from   the   
wing,   and   attach   and   secure   the   Rail   Blade.   

2.

 

The   Rail   blade   will   not   come   directly   in   contact   with   the   ground   
when   the   TR3   is   in   the   normal   drag   position.   The   Rail   Blade   was   
designed   this   way   so   that   it   could   be   attached   to   the   TR3   while   
dragging   the   rest   of   the   Arena,   without   disturbing   the   footing   as   it   
is   groomed.   

RAIL   BUSTER   ATTACHMENT   AND   USE:   

   

1.

 

To   attach   the   Rail   Buster   to   the   TR3   remove   one   of   the   stabilizing   wheels   on   the   TR3   
and   insert   the   Rail   Buster   in   place   of   the   stabilizing   wheel.   

2.

 

The   Rail   Buster   depth   can   be   adjusted   by   adjusting   where   the   scarifier   is   pinned   on   
the   Scarifier   tube.   Adjust   the   scarifier   to   the   same   depth   as   the   scarifiers   on   the   TR3.   

3.

 

The   Rail   Buster   can   be   used   in   conjunction   with   the   Rail   Blade   or   separately.   

   

Hydraulic   Top   Link   Option:   
Some   Tractors   may   need   an   extender   with   the   optional   Hydraulic   Top   Link   to   get   maximum   
range   of   movement   with   the   Hydraulic   Top   Link.   

1.   Attach   the   hydraulic   top   link   to   the   Tractor   replacing   the   manual   top   link.   
For   tractors   with   enclosed   mounting   areas   the   hydraulic   top   link   may   need   
to   be   mounted   with   the   body   of   the   hydraulic   top   link   attached   to   the   TR3   
with   the   shaft   attached   to   the   Tractor.   If   the   hydraulic   top   link   must   be   
mounted   with   the   body   of   the   hydraulic   top   link   on   the   TR3,   ensure   the   
hoses   will   be   long   enough   to   reach   the   tractor   when   the   hydraulic   top   link   
is   fully   extended   before   operating   the   TR3.   

2.   Hook   the   hydraulic   hoses   of   the   hydraulic   top   link   to   the   hydraulic   fittings   
on   the   tractor.   

3.   Extend   out   the   hydraulic   top   link   shaft   so   that   it   can   be   attached   to   the   

TR3/Tractor   and   attach   using   a   hitch   pin   to   the   TR3/Tractor.   The   hydraulic   top   link   is   now   ready   for   use.
