Shank Height Adjustment
WARNING
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
•
To prevent injury, make adjustments to the shank height
after the implement has been properly hooked to a tractor.
•
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.
Shank settings are based on the vertical distance
measured from bottom edge of skid shoes to bottom
edge of shank tips.

3-point hitch before adjusting shanks.
2. Adjust shank height by removing hair cotter pin (#1)
and shank lock pin (#2).
3. Adjust shank up or down to the desired depth and
then replace shank lock pins and hair cotter pin.
