CONTROL IDENTIFICATION AND FUNCTION

Before operating machine, become familiar with
the controls and general operation of the
BedShaper

®

. Know the location, purpose and

operation of the blade engagement lever, speed
control, engine shut off/throttle.

The lift lever is used to raise the blade arm from
the ground for transport. Pulling the lever towards
the operator raises the blade arm to the transport
position. The spring-loaded latch keeps the blade
in the transport position. Releasing the latch and
easing the lever forward will set the blade in the
ground.

The operating speed control is used to propel the
machine in forward and reverse. See “STARTING
OPERATION
” for details.

before adjusting working depth.

Blade depth adjustment is controlled by a gauge
wheel (see Photo 4-2). To adjust to a different cut-
ting depth, lift blade arm, remove pin on gauge
wheel, adjust to desired height. Replace pin.

The height of the BedShaper

can be adjusted

from 1" to 4.5" (2.5 to 11.4 cm). As a starting point,
with the blade resting on a hard surface, adjust
the gauge wheel so it is 2" (5.1 cm) above the hard
surface. Further adjustments can be made to
accommodate the desired performance.
