Gauge Wheels

Refer to Figure 3-1

Caster type gauge wheels are mounted on the rake to control roller height during field operation. Do not use tractor to control roller height.

Set working depth of the Powered Rake by moving the gauge wheels up for greater depth and down for less depth. Move wheels up by repositioning the desired number of C-spacers located on the gauge wheel spindles from below the support arms to above the support arms or from above the support arms to below the support arms to move the wheels down. For best results, set the gauge wheel on the chain case side approximately one inch lower than the non-drive side to allow for additional weight on the chain case side.

Rake Angle

The roller frame can be angled a maximum of 15 degrees in either direction for windrowing material to the side. Angling is accomplished with either a hydraulic cylinder or a ratchet jack.

Adjust rake angle with a ratchet jack by setting the ratchet mechanism on the jack and then pumping the jack handle.

!DANGER

Do not operate the hydraulic cylinder controls while someone is directly behind the tractor or near the Powered Rake.

Adjust rake angle with the hydraulic cylinder by operating the control lever at the tractor. The hydraulic cylinder option is very useful when changing rake angle often. You may order a hydraulic cylinder from your nearest Land Pride dealer or visit our dealer locator at landpride.com.

Material Control Deflector

Refer to Figure 3-2

A material control deflector mounted above the rake roller controls both size and shape of material being raked by adjusting the height of the deflector above the roller. The highest position or widest gap allows most dirt and rock to pass over the roller and lowering the deflector height or narrowing the gap produces a finer raking job.

Reposition the height of the material control deflector (C) by loosening at both ends bolts (A) and repositioning bolts (B) to a different deflector height location.
