Maintenance
Proper servicing and adjustments are key to the long life
of any implement. With careful inspection and routine
maintenance, you can avoid costly downtime and repair.
The parts on your Landscape Rake have been specially
designed and should only be replaced with genuine Land
Pride parts.
After several hours of use and on a regular basis
thereafter check all bolts and pins to be sure they are
tight. Replace worn, damaged, or missing parts.
Replace any worn, damaged, or illegible safety alert
labels by obtaining new labels from your Land Pride
dealer.
Do not alter the rake in a way which will adversely affect
its performance.

Always check all rake hardware for tightness before moving
or working around the unit. Make sure pivot retaining
hardware is tighten to the correct torque. The rake can fall
from its pivot mount if retaining hardware is loose or
•
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.

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 to ensure the unit is
ready for field use the next time you hook-up to it.
1.
Remove all dirt and grease that has accumulated on
the rake and then wash the surface thoroughly with a
garden hose.
2. Inspect rake for loose, damaged, or worn parts and
adjust or replace as needed.
3. Repaint parts where paint is worn or scratched to
prevent rust. Ask your Land Pride dealer for aerosol
touch-up paint. They are 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.
4. Replace all damaged or missing decals.
5. Lubricate as noted in
on page 14. A coating of oil may be applied to
the unpainted surfaces of the rake teeth to minimize
oxidation.
6. Store rake on a level surface in a clean, dry place.
Inside storage will reduce maintenance and make for
a longer rake life.
7.
Follow all unhooking instructions on page 12 when
disconnecting tractor from rake.
Ordering Replacement Parts
Land Pride offers equipment in factory standard Beige
with black highlights. This implement is also available in
Orange.
When ordering an optional color, the suffix number
corresponding to the color must be added at the end of
the part number. Parts ordered without the suffix number
will be supplied in factory standard colors.
For example, if you are ordering a replacement part with
part number 555-555C and the existing part is orange,
then add the suffix 82 to the end of the number to make
the part number read 555-555C82.
