To avoid serious injury or death:
Make adjustments to the Box Scraper after it has been
properly attached to a tractor and secured with solid supports
in the up position
.
Never work around or under equipment
supported by hydraulics. Hydraulics can drop equipment
instantly if controls are actuated or if hydraulic lines burst
even when power to hydraulics is shut off.
WARNING

To avoid serious injury or death:
•
Always keep your body extremities out from under the
shanks while adjusting them. It is possible for the shanks to
fall causing injury to your feet and/or legs.

Keep clear of the shank slots while adjusting shank height.
Shanks can pinch body parts in the slots during adjustments.

1. Before installing shanks (#15), manually raise front
shank tube up to insert shanks from the bottom or
attach scraper to a tractor’s 3-Point hitch and raise
unit up with tractor’s 3-Point lift arms.
2. Securely support scraper in the raised position with
support jacks or blocks.
3. With shank tips pointing forward, insert shanks (#15)
into the bottom slots in the shank tube.
4. Push each shank up until the lowest notch in the
shank catches in the slot on top of the shank tube.
5. Secure shanks in the top slot by inserting spring
retainer clips (#5) into the slots behind each shank
until they snap into place.
