Moldboard and Implement Operation
Moldboard Height
The height of the moldboard is adjusted through a Right
Side Height Control Lever
(1)
and a Left Side Height
Control Lever
(2)
. The levers are adjacent to one another
to allow one-handed operation when moving both ends of
the moldboard.
When the motor grader is equipped with moldboard float
this allows the moldboard to rise and fall to follow the
contour of the ground without operator adjustment. This
is especially helpful when cleaning debris or snow on
existing roads or extreme hard pack. On softer surfaces,
the weight of the moldboard may cause it to drop lower
than desired or be drawn into the material thus,
overloading the grader. The moldboard pitch will also
effect how aggressively the moldboard cuts and lifts the
material.
Move desired (Right or Left) Control Lever rearward
(3)
to raise moldboard.
Move desired control lever slightly forward
(5)
to lower moldboard. To engage float detent, move lever
fully forward
(6)
. To release from detent, pull lever rearward into neutral
(4)
.
