Shank Depth Adjustment
WARNING
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
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.
Refer to Figure 2-1:
The GS05 has three shank height settings. Shank
settings are based on the vertical distance measured
from bottom edge of skid shoes to bottom edge of shank
tips.
1. Either manually raise the front of the scraper up and
support it on two 4" (10 cm) hight support blocks or
hook the scraper to a tractor with a Category I 3-point
hitch. Refer to
“3-Point Hook-up”
on page 10.
2. If hooked to a tractor, raise scraper up about
6" (15 cm) . Without lowering the scraper, shut tractor
down properly before dismounting. See “Tractor
Shutdown Procedure”
on page 8.
3. Place 4" (10 cm) high support blocks under the four
corners of the scraper.
4. Restart tractor and lower scraper onto the blocks.
5. Shut tractor down properly before dismounting.
