Assembly Instructions

d)
Attach the coulter arm to the coulter shank using the coulter clamp to hold it in place.
Add the cotter pin to the hole in the bottom of the coulter shank. This pin will retain the
coulter arm if the bolt on the coulter clamp casting becomes loose.
e)
Bolt the coulter blade to the coulter arm. Adjust the height of the coulter blade so the bottom
of the blade is aligned with the top of the torpedo tube. If the center line of the coulter blade
is not aligned with the center of the knife, loosen the coulter shank clamps and reposition
them to move them into alignment. Position the coulter clamp so the coulter is free to swing
around an arc centered on the knife and torpedo tube. Assembly of the coulter assembly is
now complete and should appear similar to that shown in Figure 9.
Your GA-800 Gopher Getter is now assembled. Refer to the next chapter for additional tips and
instructions for adjusting the machine before its first use.
