Skid Shoe Maintenance
Figure 5-2
Skid Shoes
Skid shoes should be inspected at the beginning of each
season and replaced when material thickness is less
than 1/8" at any point. The skid shoe may be turned
around to extend its wear life if one end is wearing faster
than the other.
Order only genuine Land Pride parts from your local Land
Pride dealer when replacing skid shoe components.
Replace or turn skid shoe around as follows:
1.
Raise Grading Scraper 3" or more off the ground and
place support blocks under the scraper. Make sure
support blocks are positioned so they will not
interfere with skid shoe replacement.
2. Lower scraper onto support blocks, place tractor in
park, set park brakes, shut tractor engine off, and
remove switch key.
3. Remove 3/8" hex flange locknuts (#3), 3/8"-16
plow
bolts (#1), and skid shoe (#2) from scraper.
4. Plow bolts should be checked for wear and replaced
if necessary.
5. Turn old skid shoe around or install new skid shoe to
scraper with 3/8"
16 x 1" GR5
plow bolts (#2) and
3/8" hex flange locknuts (#1). Torque locknuts (#4) to
31 ft-lbs.
6. Raise scraper up and remove support blocks.

Long-Term Storage
Clean, inspect, service, and make necessary repairs to
the implement when storing it for long periods and at the
end of the season. This will help ensure the unit is ready
for field use the next time you hook-up to it.
1.
Clean off any dirt that may have accumulated on the
scraper and cutting blade. Scrape off compacted dirt
and wash surfaces thoroughly with a garden hose.
2. Check frames and plow bolts for wear and replace if
necessary. For additional instructions, see
3. Inspect Grading Scraper for loose, damaged, or
worn parts. Adjust and tighten loose parts. When
needed, replace parts with genuine Land Parts only.
Repaint parts where paint is worn or scratched to prevent
rust. Ask your dealer for Land Pride aerosol touch-up
paint. They are also available in touch-up bottles with
brush, quarts, and gallon sizes by adding TU, QT, or GL
to the end of the aerosol part number.
4. A light coating of oil or grease may be applied to the
lower frames, inside the mold board, and inside the
side panels in lieu of paint to minimize oxidation.
5. Replace all damaged or missing decals.
6. Store Grading Scraper on a level surface in a clean,
dry place. Inside storage will reduce maintenance
and make for a longer scraper life.
Ordering Replacement Parts
Land Pride offers equipment in factory standard Beige
with black highlights. This implement is also available in
Orange.
When ordering an optional color, the suffix number
corresponding to the color must be added at the end of
the part number. Parts ordered without the suffix number
will be supplied in factory standard colors.
For example, if you are ordering a replacement part with
part number 555-555C and the existing part is orange,
then add the suffix 82 to the end of the number to make
the part number read 555-555C82.
