Operators and Maintenance Instructions
OPERATORS AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
This scraper is a durable piece of equipment and with proper care will yield many years of trouble
free operation. The scraper requires a power source with TWO 4 way (double acting) hydraulic
control valves.
The scraper should be greased at all points where grease fittings are provided. Connect hydraulic
hoses to the tractor and retract lift cylinders to REMOVE TRANSPORT LOCK PINS (point A), then
extend and retract all cylinders several times to force out any air from the hydraulic cylinders and
lines. Check the oil levels in the tractor hydraulic system and add to maintain the proper level. Care
should be used when adding oil or when disconnecting any oil line to keep all dirt out of the oil as dirt
is a major factor in the failure of hydraulic components.
When the scraper is placed into operation, the operator will have to “feel out” the amount of
depth of cut to obtain maximum loading efficiency. This is usually accomplished by taking a lesser
and more uniform cut; however, some soil conditions such as loose sand may require a “pumping
action” obtained by taking successive deep cuts and lifting out of cut as the tractor begins to lose
power or traction.
1.
After 10 hours work, all bolts should be checked and tightened if necessary.
2.
Every 10 hours all grease fittings should be lubricated.

After 300 hours work, clean and repack wheel bearings and replace, if necessary,
cutting edges, worn pins, etc.
