Adjustments
Gauge Wheels
Refer to Figure 3-1:
Caster type gauge wheels control roller height during
field operation. Moving gauge wheels up or down to set
working depth. Do not use tractor to control roller height.
1.
Remove linchpin (#5) and washer (#4).
2. Rotate open end of lower spacers (#3) to align with
notch (#2).
To Increase Working Depth
Pull desired number of lower spacers (#3) from
below the support arm and add to gauge wheel
spindle (#1) above support arm.
To Decrease Working Depth
Pull desired number of upper spacers (#3) from
above support arm and add to notch (#2) below
support arm.
3. Replace washer (#4) and linchpins (#5).
4. Repeat above steps 1-3 for the other side.
Rake Angle
Refer to Figure 3-2:
The roller frame can be angled a maximum of 15 degrees
in either direction for windrowing material to one side.
Angling is accomplished with either a hydraulic cylinder
(shown) or with a ratchet jack (not shown).
Adjust rake angle with ratchet jack by setting the ratchet
mechanism on the jack and then pumping the jack handle.
DANGER
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Do not operate hydraulic 3-point lift controls while someone
is directly behind tractor or near implement.
Adjust rake angle with the hydraulic cylinder by operating
the control lever at the tractor. The hydraulic cylinder
option is very useful when changing rake angle often. You
may order a hydraulic cylinder from your nearest Land
Pride dealer or visit our dealer locator at landpride.com.
Material Control Deflector
Refer to Figure 3-3:
A material control deflector mounted above the rake roller
controls both size and shape of material being raked by
adjusting the height of the deflector above the roller. The
highest position or widest gap allows most dirt and rock
to pass over the roller and lowering the deflector height or
narrowing the gap produces a finer raking job.
Reposition the height of the material control deflector (C)
by loosening at both ends bolts (A) and repositioning
bolts (B) to a different deflector height location.
NOTE:
The gauge wheel on the chain case side
should be down approximately 1 inch more than the
non-drive side to compensate for extra weight.
