4-3 ATTACHING TO THE TRACTOR
4-3.1 Align the tractor drawbar with the machine.
Raise or lower the Model 2210 Series
Weatherproofer clevis, as needed, using the
swivel jack. Attach the unit with proper size
hitch pin.
4-3.2 Clean all hydraulic couplings and attach to
the tractor. When properly attached, the hy-
draulic control lever should cause the Model
2210 Series Weatherproofer to:
a.
Lower to the ground when the control lever
is moved forward or downward, and
b. Raise when the control lever is moved back-
ward or upward.
4-3.3 Fully extend the hydraulic gauge wheel cyl-
inders, and place the cylinder lockouts in the
transport lock position over the cylinder rods.
Secure the lockouts with the lockout pins.
4-3.4 Always place the swivel jack on the interior
mount before setting the machine in motion.
4-4 FIELD OPERATION
4-4.1 Remove the transport lock pins from the
cylinder lockouts. Flip lockouts over as
shown in Figure 3-3 and 3-5 . Use lock pins
to hook the lockouts to the lockout anchor
chains. Lower the Model 2210 Series Weath-
erproofer until the points run at the desired
depth.
4-4.2 Check the front-to-rear leveling of the
frame. Level the machine by adjusting the
hitch radius rod. Set the frame level to its
working depth.
4-4.3 Set the depth by changing the stroke con-
trol blocks on the gauge wheel cylinders. For
stability, it is important that the gauge wheels
always apply slight pressure against the soil.
4-4.4 Always lift the Weatherproofer completely
out of the ground before turning or backing.
This prevents shank or disc damage or dam-
age to their respective mounting brackets.
CAUTION
REDUCE SPEED AT FIELD ENDS, AND
LIFT THE WEATHERPROOFER COM-
PLETELY OUT OF THE GROUND BE-
FORE TURNING.
4-4.5 After a few hours of operation, check all
bolts for tightness, especially the shank u-
bolts and pivot bolts. Tighten wheel lug bolts
to 90 ft.-lbs. of torque. Tighten any loose
bolts to the torques shown in Table 2-1.
DANGER
FAILURE TO KEEP ROLL PINS AND
NUTS IN PLACE IN THE DISC GANG
PINS, CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS IN-
JURY OR DEATH TO PEOPLE NEAR
THE DISC GANGS.
4-4.6 Adjust the disc gangs to operate to a de-
sired depth. Use the following procedure to
adjust the disc gangs.
a. Loosen the disc gang pins.
b. Install or remove the spacer blocks between
the frame and the disc gang tubes. Adjust-
ments can be made in 2" increments. The
spacer blocks should be stored in the storage
