Shank Installation

See Figures 2-3 - 2-10 for shank placement dimensions.
Verify that all shank clamps are properly installed.

1.

Install shanks in clamps (See Figure 3-15.)

a.

Spring clamp assembly - Install shank in clamp
using 5/8-11 X 1-3/4 round head square neck
screw and flange lock nut provided.

b.

Install shank clamp, 1/2-13 x 3-1/4 hex head cap
screw, and hex lock nut across bottom of shank
clamp weldment.

c.

S-tine clamp assembly - Install shank in S-tine
spring using 5/8-11 X 2-1/4 hex head cap screw
and hex lock nut provided.

2.

Install sweep on shank with 7/16-14 X 1-1/2 plow
bolt, washers, and nuts provided. Note that the flat
washer is only used in the lower slotted sweep hole.

NOTE

Spring shank assemblies with frame extensions (front
bar) are mounted reversed for narrower shipment. These
shanks must be removed and turned forward for proper
operation.
See Figures 2-3 - 2-10 for proper placement.
After shanks have been reversed, verify that springs
have been set to the proper tension. Adjust the spring
until there is 1/8” gap between the top of the mount and
locking jam nut on top of the spring (See Figure 3-16.)

Lock the jam nut against the top of the spring, not the top
of the mount.
