Reversing the Scraper Blade
The scraper blade contacts the ground preventing
damage to the snow blade. Periodically inspect the
scraper blade for wear. When scraper becomes worn,
before working surface contacts the housing, reverse
the scraper blade.
1. Disengage the power take off (PTO), set the
parking brake, and turn the ignition key to
“OFF” to stop the engine. Remove the key.
2. Raise the attachment lift lever: Refer to Raising
Attachments, and support the housing off the
ground.
3. Remove lock nuts and carriage bolts to remove
scraper blade (Fig. 21).
4. Reverse scraper blade to replace a worn edge and
install with previously removed hardware
(Fig. 21).
