Before You Start
Make sure the intended tractor conforms to the
requirements stated above. Also, read and understand
this Operator’s Manual for your Snow Trip Blade. An
understanding of how it works will aid in its assembly and
set-up.
Go through the
Pre-Assembly Checklist
before
assembling the Snow Trip Blade. To speed up your
assembly task and make the job safer, have all needed
parts and equipment readily at hand.
Pre-Assembly Checklist
Check
Reference
Have a hoist, fork lift or loader with properly sized chains and
safety stands capable of lifting and supporting the equipment
on hand.
Have a minimum of two people available during assembly.
Make sure all major components and loose
parts are shipped with the machine.
Assembly
& Set-up
Double check to make sure all parts, fasteners,
and pins are installed in the correct location.
Refer to the Parts Manual if unsure. By double
checking, you will lessen the chance of
incorrectly using a bolt that may be needed
later.
NOTE:
All assembled hardware from the
factory has been installed in the correct
location. Remember location of a part or
fastener if removed. Keep parts separated.

Operator’s
Manual
Make sure all grease fittings are in place and
lubricated.
Make sure all safety labels are correctly
located and legible. Replace if damaged.
Make sure all red and amber reflectors are
correctly located and visible when machine is
in transport position.
IMPORTANT:
Ballast may need to be added to your
tractor to maintain steering control and to prevent
tipping. Refer to your tractor’s operator manual to
determine if additional ballast is needed.
Tractor Shutdown Procedure
The following are basic tractor shutdown procedures.
Follow these procedures and any additional shutdown
procedures provided in your tractor Operator’s Manual
before leaving the operator’s seat.
1.
Reduce engine speed and shut-off all power to the
attachment.
2. Park tractor and attachment on solid, level ground.
3. Lower attachment until it is flat on the ground or on
non-concrete support blocks.
4. Put tractor in park or set park brake, turn off engine,
and remove switch key to prevent unauthorized
starting.
5. Relieve all hydraulic pressure to auxiliary hydraulic
lines.
6. Wait for all components to come to a complete stop
before leaving the operator’s seat.
7.
Use steps, grab-handles and anti-slip surfaces when
stepping on and off the tractor.
Cutting Edge Assembly
Land Pride offers two cutting edge options, steel cutting
edge and poly cutting edge, for the Snow Trip Blade. The
steel cutting edge for tougher applications and the poly
cutting edge for applications where you want to be more
gentle on the surface being bladed such as asphalt
parking lots.
Steel Cutting Edge Assembly
1.
Locate steel cutting edge (#2) two plow bolts (#1)
and two hex flange locknuts (#4).
2. Insert plow bolt (#1) through the cutting edge (#2)
and moldboard (#3) on one end first and hand tighten
hex flange locknut (#4).
3. Repeat step 2 for the opposite end.
4. Raise the Snow Trip Blade with a hoist and install
remaining plow bolts (#1) and hex flange lock
nuts (#4).
5. Tighten nuts to proper torque and lower the Snow
Trip Blade to level ground.
Poly Cutting Edge Assembly
1.
Locate the poly cutting edge (#4) two carriage
bolts (#2), retaining plate (#1) and two hex flange
locknuts (#3).
2. Insert carriage bolt (#2) through the retaining
plate (#1), the cutting edge (#2) and moldboard (#5)
on one end first. Attach hex flange locknut (#3) and
hand tighten.
3. Repeat step 2 for the opposite end.
4. Raise the Snow Trip Blade with a hoist and install
remaining carriage bolts (#2) and hex flange locknuts
(#3).
