Skid Shoe Maintenance
Figure 5-3
Skid Shoes
Skid shoes should be inspected at the beginning of each
season and replaced when material thickness is less
than 1/8" (3 mm) 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" (8 cm) or more off the
ground and move the Grading Scraper over support
blocks. Make sure support blocks are positioned so
they will not interfere with skid shoe replacement.
2. Lower scraper onto support blocks and shut down
3. Remove 3/8" hex whiz nuts (#3), 3/8"-16
plow bolts
(#1), and skid shoe (#2) from the grading scraper.
4. Plow bolts (#1) should be checked for wear and
replaced if necessary.
5. Turn old skid shoe (#2) around or install new skid
shoe (#2) to scraper with 3/8"-
16 x 1" GR5
plow bolts
(#1) and 3/8" hex flange locknuts (#3). Torque whiz
nuts (#3) to 31 ft-lbs.
6. Raise scraper up and drive away from support
blocks.
Long-Term Storage
DANGER
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Always secure equipment with solid, non-concrete supports
before working under it. Never go under equipment supported
by concrete blocks or hydraulics. Concrete can break,
hydraulic lines can burst, and/or hydraulic controls can be
actuated even when power to hydraulics is off.

WARNING
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Always shut tractor down according to “Tractor Shutdown
Procedure” provided in this manual before allowing anyone
including the operator to hook up or unhook the implement.
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 to 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.
4. 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.
5. A light coating of oil or grease may be applied to the
lower frames, grader blades, and inside the side
panels in lieu of paint to minimize oxidation.
6. Replace all damaged or missing decals.
7.
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.
