is allowed to hinge.
For finishing and fine grading, secure both ends of the
rear gate to the moldboard with 1/2" x 1 1/2" long bolts
(1/2" bolts are supplied by customer).

DANGER
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Make adjustments to the implement after it has been properly
attached to a tractor and secured with solid non-concrete
supports in the up position. Never work around or under
equipment supported by hydraulics. Hydraulics can drop
equipment instantly if controls are actuated or if hydraulic
lines burst even when power to hydraulics is shut off.
WARNING
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Always keep your body extremities out from under the shanks
while adjusting them. It is possible for the shanks to fall
causing injury to your feet and/or legs.
Refer to Figure 3-1:
Shank settings are based on the vertical distance
measured from bottom edge of side plates to bottom of
shank tips. Adjust each shank height as follows:
1.
Remove hairpin cotter (#1) and shank pin(#2).
2. Adjust shank (#3) up or down to the desired hole
setting and then replace shank pin and secure with
hairpin cotter.
