Section 4: Maintenance
Maintenance
Proper servicing and adjustments are key to the long life
of any implement. With careful inspection and routine
maintenance, you can avoid costly downtime and repair.
Check all bolts after using the unit for several hours to be
sure they are tight. Replace any worn, damaged, or
illegible safety labels by obtaining new labels from your
Land Pride dealer.
The parts on your Fixed Bar Box Scraper have been
specially designed and should only be replaced with
genuine Land Pride parts. Do not alter the scraper in a
way which will adversely affect its performance.
DANGER
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Make adjustments to the implement after it has been properly
attached to a tractor and secured with solid non-concrete
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 and cutting blades while removing, installing, and
adjusting them. It is possible for the cutting blades and/or
shanks to fall causing injury to your body.
•
Do not alter implement or replace parts on the implement
with other brands. Other brands may not fit properly or
meet OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer)
specifications. They can weaken the integrity and impair the
safety, function, performance, and life of the implement.
Replace parts only with genuine OEM parts.
