3 ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
It is very important that your new SF4800 Soil
Finisher be properly assembled, adjusted and lubri-
cated before use. Illustrations to assist with the as-
sembly process are provided in Section 2, “Stan-
dard Specifications” . They show proper shank,
disc gang and mounting bracket spacings. Illustra-
tions in this section show proper assembly proce-
dures. Remove paint from grease fittings. Replace
any grease fittings that are damaged or missing. Be
sure to return screws, clips, etc., to their original lo-
cations.
To insure alignment of assemblies, leave the
nuts loose until completion of final assembly. Use
lock washers or flatwashers as specified. Spread all
cotter pins.
After completion of final assembly, tighten all
nuts evenly to prevent misalignment, distortion or
binding. Tighten all screws and nuts to the recom-
mended torques shown in Table 2-1, “Standard
Bolt Torques” .
