ADJUSTMENTS

Lift Rod

For initial setting, place front set collar (A, figure 10) 1” from rod guide with blade fully lowered. Place rear set collar (B) against spring (C). Tighten the setscrews in the two set collars. To adjust, perform the following:

1.Fully raise the blade by raising on the tractor lift lever. Measure distance between scraper bar and ground. If it measures approximately 6”, it is prop erly adjusted. If not, proceed to step 2.

2.Lower the blade. Loosen the setscrew in the front set collar. Move the set collar back to increase clearance or forward to decrease clearance. Tighten the setscrew. Recheck the measurement.

M O T E : D%rent ground contours may require differ- ent adjustments. Lower the blade to adjust rear set collar. Moving the rear set collar toward rear will allow the blade to follow a rolling contour. The farther back the rear set collar is positioned, the more the blade will float. Moving the rear set collar toward the front will increase blade down pressure.
