achieve uniform distribution and leveling of scraped
material by setting the scraper to shave off high spots and
allowing accumulated material to flow out under the
grader blade in low spots. If the ground or surface
material is very hard, you may want to add weights in the
weight box in order for the cutting edge to be effective.
Achieving the desired effect will require a little
experimentation and experience. Pull Type Drag
Scrapers generally perform better in dry to slightly damp
soil conditions.
Your Land Pride Pull Type Drag Scraper can also be used
for making slopes, terracing, and ditching if the tilt axle is
used. Just simply extend the tilt cylinder to lower the right
side of the grader blade. Fully retract the tilt cylinder to
return the grader blade to level.
With a little practice you should become a very good
operator and consistently achieve the desired results you
expect with your Land Pride Pull Type Drag Scraper. See

Unhook Tractor
DANGER
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
A crushing hazard exists while hooking-up and unhooking
implement. Keep people and animals away while backing-up
to implement or pulling away from implement. Do not operate
hydraulic controls while a person or animal is directly behind
the power machine or near the implement.
1.
Park Pull Type Drag Scraper on a level solid hard
surface.
2. If optional tilt axle cylinder is included, fully retract tilt
cylinder to level the scraper’s cutting edge.
3. If transport lock (#1) is attached to lift cylinder (#3) as
shown in Figure 2-3 on page 18, then relocate it to
the drawbar as follows;
a. Fully extend lift cylinder to raise scraper up.
b. Without lowering the scraper, shut tractor down.
See
c.
Refer to Figure 2-3 on page 18:
Remove wire
retaining pin (#2) and transport lock (#1) from
cylinder rod (#3).
d. Store transport lock (#1) on the gusset plate with
wire retaining pin (#2) as shown in Figure 2-4.
4. Start tractor and lower scraper until its cutting edge is
resting on the ground and hitch weight is off the
tractor drawbar.
5. Shut tractor down before dismounting. Refer to
6. Pull hitch pin keeper (#7) and hitch pin (#6).
7.
Start tractor and slowly move tractor forward until
tractor drawbar is clear of scraper hitch (#5). Do not
travel so far forward as to cause wire harness (#13)
or hydraulic hoses (#3 or #4) to disconnect.
8. Use lift control lever to lower scraper until cutting
edge and side plates are resting on the ground.
9. Unhook wire harness (#13) from the tractor. Store
coupler end of wire harness in hose support
loop (#11).
10. Unhook hydraulic hoses (#3 & #4) from tractor. Store
hydraulic hose ends in spring hose loop (#11).
11. Store hitch pin (#6) and keeper (#7) with scraper. If
hitch pin is used with other equipment, store hitch pin
and keeper with the tractor.
