CHAPTER 4

OPERATING YOUR DR POWER GRADER

This chapter covers the procedures for operating your new DR POWER GRADER and discusses basic
operation features. You may find it helpful to review the Controls and Features on page 9.

Operating Safety



NEVER ALLOW ANYONE TO OPERATE THE DR POWER GRADER WITHOUT FIRST READING AND
UNDERSTANDING ALL INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS MANUAL. BE THOROUGHLY FAMILIAR WITH THE
CONTROLS AND THE PROPER USE OF YOUR GRADER BEFORE USING.

NEVER LET PEOPLE RIDE ON THE GRADER.

ALWAYS CHECK FOR OBJECTS IN THE GRADER’S PATH BEFORE MOVING.

WHEN OPERATING IN A ROADWAY, WE SUGGEST THAT YOU PUT OUT OBSTRUCTIONS (MARKER
CONES OR PAILS) TO DIVERT ANY TRAFFIC AWAY FROM YOUR WORK AREA. ALWAYS BE AWARE OF
POTENTIAL TRAFFIC HAZARDS.

Understanding the Height Adjustment Control Box

The Height Adjustment Control Box contains a 3-position momentary Rocker Switch. The “Raise” position
raises the Scarifying Teeth. The “Lower” position lowers the Scarifying Teeth. When you release the Switch,
it will return to center or OFF position (Figure 19).
