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.

After using your Grading Scraper for several hours, check 
all bolts to be sure they are tight.

Replace any worn, damaged, or illegible safety labels by 
obtaining new labels from your Land Pride dealer.

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:  

Allow only persons to perform maintenance on this 

implement who have been properly trained in its safe 

operation.

Perform scheduled maintenance. Check for loose 

hardware, missing parts, broken parts, structural cracks, 

and excessive wear. Make repairs before putting implement 

back into service. Serious breakdowns can result in injury 

or death.

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.

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.

Cutting Blade and Shank Tip Removal

Figure 5-1

Cutting Blades

Refer to Figure 5-1:

The front mounted and optional rear mounted cutting 
blades (#3) have two cutting edges. Unbolt blades and 
turn them over when bottom edges wear out. Inspect 
plow bolts(#4) and nuts (#5) for wear and replace as 
needed. Reattach blades and torque nuts to 150 ft-lbs. 
Replace cutting blades when both edges are worn out.

Shank Tips

Refer to Figure 5-1:

Shank tips (#6) are removable by heating them in the 
dimpled area on both sides and knocking them off with a 
blunt punch. New shank tips need to be dimpled with a 
punch after they are installed.
