ADJUSTMENTS

RAKE LIFT CYLINDER

Completely lower Rake Lift. Remove the clevis pin (A). Twist lift linkage
(C) so clevis pin end of cylinder extension lines up with holes in attach-
ment lift arm. Replace clevis and cotter pins. Raise and lower Rake Lift
to check for proper clearance.

When the rear rake attachment is lowered while the
machine is in forward motion, the forward speed of
the machine will slow drastically. Operator should be
prepared for a rapid change in speed.

SPEED BOSS

Speed Boss allows the machine to oper-
ate at a proper speed while raking sand
traps on golf courses. This speed boss
has been factory set at an average
speed of 3-4 m.p.h. (5-6.5 kph). The
Speed Boss will only limit the speed
while the rake is lowered into the operat-
ing position.

Quick Disconnect Ball Joints (A) are
used in applications where the housing
needs to be easily disconnected from
the ball stud. This is accomplished by
pulling back the spring-loaded outer
housing.

The speed setting may be adjusted by
turning the Ball Joint (A) counterclock-
wise to make the machine operate
slower or turn clockwise to go faster.
Tighten jam nut. Check to make sure
nothing is binding and test drive to check
desired speed.

For RBS System, Spiker and Grader Box remove the speed boss arm and the speed boss rod from machine so
it does not interfere with other operations.
