3-8 FLEX DISC GANG INSTALLATION
DANGER
DISC BLADES ARE EXTREMELY
SHARP. EXERCISE EXTREME CARE
WHEN WORKING ON OR NEAR DISC
BLADES. DO NOT ALLOW DISCS TO
ROLL OVER OR FALL ONTO ANY BOD-
ILY
PART.
DO
NOT
ALLOW
WRENCHES TO SLIP WHEN WORKING
NEAR DISC BLADES. NEVER PUSH
WRENCHES TOWARD DISC BLADES.
DO NOT CLIMB OVER MACHINE
ABOVE DISC BLADES. FAILURE TO
STAY CLEAR OF DISC BLADE EDGES

JURY OR DEATH.
IMPORTANT
READ ALL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AT THE
FRONT OF THIS SECTION BEFORE ATTEMPT-
ING ANY OF THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURES.
IMPORTANT
SEE FIGURE 3-9 FOR PART NAMES.
3-8.1
Disc gangs are partly assembled at the
factory. Some assembly is needed before
installing on the frame. A special wrench is
used to tighten 1-1/2" nuts on the disc
gangs.
3-8.2
Assemble the flex mount shanks to the
disc bearing mounts using 3/4-10 x 2-1/2 cap
screws. Be sure the open end of the flex
shank is facing the rear of the disc gang.
3-8.3
Insert the disc gang mounting pins into the
disc gang tubes (2 per tube). Assemble the
disc gang tubes to the flex shanks using u-
bolts, mounting plates, spacer plates, and
nuts. The two shorter tubes are for the front
disc gangs. The two longer tubes are for the
rear disc gangs.
IMPORTANT
THE FRONT AND REAR DISC GANG TUBES
ARE THE SAME LENGTH FOR 4-BLADE DISC
GANGS (ON 2215’S) AND 6-BLADE DISC
GANGS (ON THE 2217’S).
3-8.4
Set the disc gang tubes each with one
right (R) and one left (L) disc gang. Disc
gangs are to be assembled left and right as
shown in
Figure 3-9
3-8.5
Find your model of the Weatherproofer in
. Study the dia-
gram to assist you in properly placing the
disc gangs for your machine type. Decide at
this time which disc gang angle you will be
using (10
o
, 15
o
, or 20
o
).
3-8.6
Use a hoist or forklift combination to posi-
tion the disc gangs
(See Figure 3-9)
under
the front of the frame.
3-8.7
Carefully, lower the jackstands and release
the cylinder lockouts from the gauge wheel
cylinders to lower the machine onto the disc
gangs.
3-8.8
Secure the disc gangs to the frame. Use
the disc gang pins and one each 1-1/2"-12
UNF nut and jam nut. Set the outer pins in
the proper holes to achieve the desired disc
gang angle (10
o
, 15
o
, or 20
o
). Tighten 1-1/2"
nuts to 1200 ft-lbs of torgue.
(See Figure 4-3
for an example of torque)
.
3-8.9
After disc gang installation is done, place
an amber reflective tape square on the front
outer end of the front disc gang tubes, and a
red reflective tape square on the rear outer
end of the rear disc gang tubes.
3-8.10
Insert cotter pins through the top of the
disc gang mounting pins.
3-8.11
Install scrapers per
Figure 3-9.
Adjust ac-
cording to instructions in
Section 4-2.5
IMPORTANT
SCRAPERS ARE NOT USED ON THE OUTRIDE
DISCS ON FRONT GANGS OR THE INRIDE
DISCS ON REAR GANGS.
