Hydraulic Maintenance

!DANGER

Hydraulic fluid under pressure can penetrate skin. Wear protective gloves and safety glasses or goggles when working with hydraulic systems. Use a piece of cardboard or wood rather than hands when searching for hydraulic leaks. If hydraulic fluid is injected into the skin, it must be treated by a doctor within a few hours or gangrene may result.

One of the most important things you can do to prevent hydraulic system problems is to ensure that your Skid Steer reservoir remains free of dirt and contamination.

Use a clean cloth to wipe the hose ends before attaching them to your Skid Steer. Replace the filter element for your Skid Steer’s hydraulic system at the prescribed intervals. These simple maintenances will go a long way to prevent occurrence of hydraulic problems.

Storage

!CAUTION

Store cutter with hitch plate in the upright position. A hitch plate that is stored folded down against the deck can tip up easily resulting in serious injury to the body.

!DANGER

Do not modify the Rotary Cutter without authorization from Land Pride. Unauthorized modifications to the cutter can result in the cutter not performing properly and/or in serious injury or death.

Clean the Rotary Cutter at the end of the working season or when the cutter will not be used for a long period.

1.Clean off any dirt or grease that may have accumulated on the cutter and moving parts. Scrape off compacted dirt from the bottom of the deck and then wash the surface thoroughly with a garden hose. A coating of oil may also be applied to the lower deck area to minimize oxidation.

2.Check blades and blade bolts for wear and replace if necessary. See “Cutter Blade Maintenance” on page 23.

3.Inspect for loose, damaged or worn parts and adjust or replace as needed.

4.Lubricate as noted in the Lubrication portion of this section starting on page 26.

5.Store the Rotary Cutter in a clean, dry place. The deck should be positioned on a flat surface to suitable Skid Steer hook-up height. Ensure that the main frame is stable. Use auxiliary supports or posts if necessary to prevent the possibility of the unit tipping over. Store hitch in the upright position.

6.Repaint parts where paint is worn or scratched to prevent rust. Ask your dealer for Aerosol Land Pride touch-up paint.

SC2672, SC2660 specifications

The Land Pride SC2660 and SC2672 are exceptional tillers designed to enhance agricultural productivity through their advanced features and technologies. These models are tailored for small to medium-sized tractors, making them versatile choices for hobby farmers and professionals alike.

One of the standout characteristics of the SC2660 and SC2672 is their robust construction. Built with high-quality materials, these tillers ensure durability and longevity, allowing them to withstand the rigors of demanding soil conditions. The two models differ primarily in width, with the SC2660 featuring a 60-inch working width, while the SC2672 offers a slightly wider 72-inch option, catering to various land preparation needs.

Both tillers are equipped with heavy-duty tines made from hardened steel, providing excellent soil penetration and thorough tilling action. The tines are designed to break up compacted soil effectively, promoting better aeration and root growth for crops. The adjustable tilling depth feature allows operators to customize the tilling process to meet specific agricultural requirements, ensuring optimal soil health and structure.

The SC2660 and SC2672 incorporate a chain drive system that delivers reliable power from the tractor to the tiller. This efficient drive mechanism reduces wear and enhances the tillers' overall performance, ensuring a smooth operation even under challenging conditions. The adjustable side skids provide further flexibility, allowing users to control the width of the tilling area, which is particularly beneficial for row cropping applications.

Another important aspect of these tillers is their ease of use. The quick-hitch compatibility allows for fast attachment and detachment, saving valuable time in the field. Additionally, the low maintenance requirements and straightforward design mean that operators can focus more on tilling and less on equipment upkeep.

In summary, the Land Pride SC2660 and SC2672 tillers offer a blend of strength, efficiency, and ease of use. Their durable build, adjustable features, and reliable performance make them an indispensable tool for any agricultural operation. Whether you're preparing your garden or cultivating larger fields, these tillers provide the versatility and reliability needed to achieve outstanding results.
