OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
Tractor Preparation
The Landoll 876 Series Wing Tilloll is designed to be
pulled by tractor equipped with a double lip or clevis type
hitch. If your tractor is not equipped as such, you need to
purchase the hitch from your local tractor dealer. If your
Tilloll is equipped with the clevis option, this should be
removed. The clevis option is only for transport use.
Before attaching the Tilloll, prepare the tractor as follows:
1. Inflate the rear tractor tires equally and add ballast
according to the tractor operator’s manual.
2. Lock the tractor drawbar in the center position.
3. Install front end weights as needed on the tractor to
maintain stability.
Tilloll Preparation
1. Prior to operating the 876 Series Wing Tilloll, inspect
it thoroughly for good operating condition.
2. Replace worn or missing parts.
3. When the machine is new, check the bolt tightness
after a few hours of operation. Tighten any loose nuts
or bolts. Check the gauge wheel lug bolts daily.
4. Check the gauge wheel tire inflation. Inflate all tires
equally to avoid side draft. Follow the tire
manufacturer’s recommended pressures listed on the
sidewall of the tires.
5. Check disc scrapers for proper adjustment to the disc
blade
(See Figure 4-1.) To adjust the pressure of the
disc gang scrapers, loosen the u-bolts that clamp the
assembly to the disc gang and slide the scraper
assembly into the disc blades. Only enough pressure
is required to keep the disc blades clean. The
scraper blades are reversible to allow extended use
before replacement is required.
6. Lubricate the machine as shown in “Lubrication”
on page 4-9 (See Figure 4-7.)
