■Keep bystanders away from equipment.

■Wear appropriate hearing protection.

11.Depth of cut can be controlled with the skid shoes or by tilting the blower forward or backward. Exces- sive forward or backward tilt may cause U-joint to flutter resulting in PTO shear bolt failure. Do not run the PTO shaft at more than a 15° angle.

12.Allow the snowblower to work its way through the snow rather than forcing it.

13.In deep snow it may be necessary to raise the snowblower for the first pass through and clean up the remainder with a second pass.

14.Do not feed snow through snowblower when rais- ing or lowering.

TRANSPORTING

„A minimum 20% of tractor and equipment weight must be on the tractor front wheels when

attachments are in transport position. Without this weight, front tractor wheels could raise up result- ing in loss of steering. The weight may be attained with front wheel weights, ballast in tires or front tractor weights. Weigh the tractor and equipment. Do not estimate.

„Never allow riders on power unit or attachment.

„Do not operate PTO during transport.

CAUTION

„Always comply with all state and local lighting and marking requirements.

NOTICE

■Do not exceed 20 mph (32km/h). Reduce speed on rough roads and surfaces.

When transporting snowblower, review and follow this procedure:

■Be sure all bystanders are clear of machine.

■Be sure that machine is securely attached to tractor and all retainer pins are installed.

■Raise machine.

■Do not allow riders.

STORAGE

„Block equipment securely for storage.

„Keep children and bystanders away from stor- age area.

After season's use, machine should be thoroughly inspected and prepared for storage. Repair or replace any worn or damaged components to prevent any unnecessary down time at start of next season.

To insure a long, trouble free life, this procedure should be followed when preparing unit for storage.

1.Clear area of bystanders.

2.Thoroughly wash machine to remove all dirt, mud, debris or residue.

3.Check auger, fan and drivelines for damage or entangled material. Repair or replace damaged parts. Remove the entangled material.

4.Inspect all hydraulic hoses, fittings, lines and cou- plers. Tighten any loose fittings. Replace any hose that is cut, nicked or abraded or is separating from crimped end of fitting.

5.Change oil in gearbox.

SB84S, SB54S, SB74S, SB64S specifications

Woods Equipment Company has established itself as a leader in the manufacturing of high-quality landscape equipment, and the SB series of landscape rakes—specifically the SB64S, SB74S, SB54S, and SB84S—stand out for their exceptional performance and innovative features.

The SB series is designed to meet the needs of both residential and commercial users. These models range in width from 54 inches to 84 inches, allowing for versatility in handling various tasks, whether you're maintaining a small garden or clearing a large lot. The difference in size also caters to different tractor sizes and horsepower ratings, making it easier for users to select a rake that fits their specific requirements.

A notable feature of the SB series is its durable construction. Built from high-strength steel, these rakes can withstand rigorous use in various environments. The rakes are further equipped with heavy-duty tines that are engineered to be resilient against breakage while providing optimal soil leveling and debris clearing performance.

The SB rakes utilize a patented Quick-Tatch mounting system. This system allows for fast and easy attachment and detachment from tractors, reducing downtime and enhancing productivity. Additionally, the rakes can be adjusted to various angles, enabling users to efficiently handle different tasks such as grading, levelling, or scarifying soil.

One of the key characteristics of the SB64S, SB74S, SB54S, and SB84S models is their ergonomic design. The rakes are built with user-friendly controls that facilitate operation. Operators can change the angle and height with ease, which contributes to overall efficiency while reducing the physical strain typically associated with manual adjustments.

The rakes also feature a heavy-duty frame that supports consistent performance across various job conditions, whether working on flat ground or uneven terrains. Enhanced stability during operation means users can trust that the rake will provide uniform results without compromising the integrity of the landscape.

Another technological advantage of the SB series is its versatility in compatible attachment options, which allows users to employ the rake for various applications beyond standard landscaping, including gravel leveling and road maintenance.

In conclusion, the Woods Equipment SB64S, SB74S, SB54S, and SB84S rakes offer a combination of strength, technology, and user convenience, making them essential tools for landscape management. Their wide range of sizes and features ensures that there is a suitable option for every need, allowing for efficient and effective work across diverse environments.
