General Maintenance Information
Proper servicing and adjustment is the key to the long life
of any implement. With careful inspection and routine
maintenance, you can avoid costly downtime and repair.
Check all bolts after using the unit for several hours to be
sure they are tight. Replace any worn, damaged, or
illegible safety labels by obtaining new labels from your
Land Pride dealer.
The parts on your Pull Type Drag Scraper have been
specially designed and should only be replaced with
genuine Land Pride parts. Do not alter the scraper in a
way which will adversely affect its performance.
DANGER
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Always secure equipment with solid, non-concrete supports
before working under it. Never go under equipment supported
by concrete blocks or hydraulics. Concrete can break,
hydraulic lines can burst, and/or hydraulic controls can be
actuated even when power to hydraulics is off.
WARNING
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
•
Perform scheduled maintenance. Check for loose
hardware, missing parts, broken parts, structural cracks,
and excessive wear. Make repairs before putting implement
back into service. Serious breakdowns can result in injury
•
Do not alter implement or replace parts on the implement
with other brands. Other brands may not fit properly or
meet OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer)
specifications. They can weaken the integrity and impair the
safety, function, performance, and life of the implement.
Replace parts only with genuine OEM parts.
Tractor Maintenance
One of the most important things you can do to prevent
hydraulic system problems is ensure that your tractor's
reservoir remains free of dirt and contamination. Use a
clean cloth to wipe hose ends before attaching them to
your tractor. Replace your tractor’s hydraulic filter
element at the prescribed intervals. These simple
maintenances will go a long way to prevent occurrence of
control valve and hydraulic cylinder problems.
Cutting Blade Removal & Replacement
Figure 4-1
30004
Cutting Blade
Always inspect cutting blade (#3) before each use. Make
certain it is properly installed and in good working
condition.
1.
Unbolt cutting blade (#3) and turn it over when the
bottom cutting edge is worn out. Replace blade when
the top and bottom edges are worn out.
2. Inspect 5/8" -11 x 1 1/2" GR5 plow bolts (#1) and hex
flange locknuts (#2) for wear. Replace if worn out.
3. Reattach blade (#3) with plow bolts (#1) and hex
flange locknuts (#2). Tighten nuts to the correct
torque.
Long-Term Storage
Clean, inspect, service, and make necessary repairs to
the implement when storing it for long periods and at the
end of the season. This will help ensure the unit is ready
for field use the next time you hook-up to it.
DANGER
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Always secure scraper in the up position with solid supports
before working under the scraper.
1.
Scrape off compacted dirt and then wash scraper
surfaces thoroughly with a garden hose.
2. Check grader blade and grader blade mounting bolts
for wear. Reverse or replace grader blade if needed.
Replace hardware if worn excessively.
3. Inspect scraper for loose, damaged, or worn parts.
Adjust and tighten loose parts or replace as needed.
4. Repaint parts where paint is worn or scratched to
prevent rust. Ask your dealer for Land Pride Aerosol
touch-up paint. Paint is also available in touch-up
bottles with brush, quarts, and gallon sizes by adding
TU, QT, or GL to the end of the Aerosol part number.
5. Replace all damaged or missing decals.
6. Apply a light coat of oil or grease to the lower
moldboard, side panels, grader blade, and exposed
hydraulic cylinder rods to minimize oxidation.
7.
Store scraper on a level surface in a clean, dry place.
Inside storage will reduce maintenance and make for
a longer scraper life.
8. Follow all unhooking instructions on page 19 when
unhooking from the tractor.
