Operation
TO THE NEW OPERATOR OR OWNER
The Degelman Dozer Blade is a push type tractor
attachment designed primarily for excavating,
levelling and filling of dirt, snow and silage.
It is the owners or operators responsibility to read
this manual carefully to learn how to operate
the machine safely and how to set it to provide
maximum efficiency. Safety is everyone’s business.
By following safe operating practices, a safe
environment is provided for the operator and
bystanders.
The manual will take you step-by-step through
your working day. By following the operating
instructions in conjunction with a good
maintenance program your machine will provide
many years of trouble-free service.
PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
The dozer blade consists of a blade/cutting edge
unit attached to a pivot-main frame combination
suspended from the tractor by the front and side
mount brackets. By driving the tractor forward
with the blade either straight ahead or angled,
and allowing the cutting edge to run just under the
ground surface - dirt, silage or snow is relocated
as desired.
BREAK-IN
Although there are no operational restrictions on
the Dozer Blade when it is new, there are some
mechanical checks that must be done to ensure
the long term integrity of the unit. When using the
machine for the first time, follow this procedure:
TRACTOR PREPARATION
1. Wheel Spacing
Important: To avoid possible damage from
over stressing tractor axles, use no tire combination
which results in overall width greater than the
width of the angle blade.
Important: Before beginning operation, turn
the wheel fully to the right and left to be sure there
is sufficient clearance between the tires and the
angling cylinders. If necessary, move the wheels
to a wider setting to provide clearance. See your
Tractor Operator's Manual.
2. Rear Wheel Weight and Tire Inflation:
Add necessary rear end weights for efficient
operation and safety. Any of the cast-iron weights
recommended for your tractor or liquid in the tires,
may be used for necessary ballast. Be sure the
weight is distributed equally on each rear wheel.
Inflate front and rear tires to proper pressure as
recommended in the Tractor Operator’s Manual for
heavy front-mounted implements.
3. Checking Hydraulic Oil Level:
Check the oil level in the tractor hydraulic system
daily. Refer to your tractor operator's Manual for
Instructions. Keep the oil supply up to the proper
level. Before checking oil supply, fully extend
and retract angle and lift cylinders 3 - 4 times and
return the blade to the ground.
ATTACHING THE DOZER BLADE
A. Before using:
1. Read Operator's Manual.
2. Lubricate all points shown in the
Maintenance Section.
3. Check all bolt tightness.
B. After operating for 2 hours:
1. Check all hardware.
2. Check all hardware tightness.
3. Check all hydraulic system connections.
Tighten if any are leaking.
C. After operating 10 hours:
1. Repeat Step B.
2. Go to the service schedule as outlined in the
Maintenance Section.
143351 - 69/7200 Series (12-May-2017)
NOTE: Please refer to the assembly section of this
manual - for full instructions for attaching your
specific tractor and blade model.
BLEEDING THE HYDRAULICS
Before beginning operation, bleed the hydraulic
system to remove any air. To do this, cycle the
hydraulics several times by holding the cylinder
fully extended for several seconds. This will cause
any trapped air to be purged from cylinder.
COLD WEATHER OPERATION
To assure smooth operation in cold weather, cycle
the cylinders several times to warm the oil in the
hydraulic system.

Operation
OPERATOR’S RESPONSIBILITY
Every operator should read this manual and
be instructed in safe operating procedures. An
untrained operator is not qualified to operate this
machine and could place themselves or bystanders
in danger.
OPERATING SPEED
For normal operation, operate the tractor at a
comfortable or manufacturer recommended speed.
When operating over rough terrain or limited to
space, reduce engine speed. The actual forward
speed will be determined by tractor horsepower,
land density and depth of cut.
Experience will teach you the most efficient operating
speed, but as a rule 3-4 MPH (5-7 km/h) is a normal
operating range.
FLOATING THE DOZER BLADE
Here are some the things you can do with your
hydraulic system in float position:
• Skim the top of pavement
• Run on the skid shoes
• Back drag
BLADE DEPTH
Gauge the depth of cut to push the most material
possible without losing speed through spinning
the wheels or slowing the tractor engine. Do this
by setting the depth shoes, and by regulating the
depth for the blade height with the lifting cylinder
operating lever.
The distance the material is pushed should be kept
to a minimum. Dig and cut the material downgrade
whenever possible.
DEPTH/SKID SHOES
Soft uneven ground
• Skid shoe low
• Blade high

By placing the remote cylinder operating lever for
the lift function in float position, the blade may be
used to smooth an area by running the tractor in
reverse (refer to Tractor Operator's Manual). On
moderate grades, the tractor can be driven up
the slope and the blade dropped down for backdragging. It may also be used to push dirt or snow
on pavement or other smooth surfaces.
ANGLING DOZER BLADE
The dozer blade can be hydraulically angled
approximately 30° to the right or left by operating
the proper tractor remote cylinder lever. In the
angled position, the dozer blade can be used
for backfilling trenches, side-casting into ditches,
levelling and grading.
A dual relief valve is incorporated to protect
the hydraulic angling system when the blade is
overloaded. (This valve will bypass the hydraulic
fluid and diminish the degrees that the blade was
initially angled.)
Important: To avoid damage to tractor or
blade, the hydraulic system must be hooked up
properly including line to hydraulic tank drain.
PRE-OPERATION CHECKLIST
Efficient and safe operation of the Dozer Blade
requires that each operator reads and understands
the operating procedures and all related safety
procedures outlined in this manual.
Before Using for the FIRST Time
• Lubricate all points
• Torque all hardware to correct setting
• Check hardware torque & hydraulics
after the first 2 hrs & again after 10 hrs.
Before Using EVERY Time
Check: • If all points lubricated
• All components attached securely
• Condition of cutting edge
• Depth/skid shoe wear
• Hydraulics:
- Tractor’s oil reservoir
- Condition of hoses, lines & fittings

Maintenance
HYDRAULIC SAFETY
1. Always place all tractor hydraulic controls in
neutral before dismounting.
2. Make sure that all components in the hydraulic
system are kept in good condition and are clean.
3. Replace any worn, cut, abraded, flattened or
crimped hoses and metal lines.
4. Do not attempt any makeshift repairs to the
hydraulic lines, fittings or hoses by using tape,
clamps or cement. The hydraulic system operates
under extremely high pressure. Such repairs will
fail suddenly and create a hazardous and unsafe
condition.
5. Wear proper hand and eye protection when
searching for a high pressure hydraulic leak. Use a
piece of wood or cardboard as a backstop instead
of hands to isolate and identify a leak.
6. If injured by a concentrated high-pressure stream of
hydraulic fluid, seek medical attention immediately.
Serious infection or toxic reaction can develop from
hydraulic fluid piercing the skin surface.
7. Before applying pressure to the system, make sure
all components are tight and that lines, hoses and
couplings are not damaged.
Think SAFETY! Work SAFELY!

10 STEP MOUNTING PROCEDURE
Procedure to mount blade:
1. Align the tractor behind the main frame.
(Unhook & lower front Tow Cable - if applicable)
2. Open the HQT (Hydraulic Quick-Tach) circuit ball
valve. Check and ensure HQT Cylinder pins are
retracted.
3. Drive forward close enough to connect the hydraulics.
Hook up the hydraulics.
4. Extend the lift cylinders fully.
5. Jack up frame until the main frame hooks are lifted up
level with the side bracket roller pins.
6. Drive forward to engage the side bracket pins.
7. Lower main frame hooks onto side bracket pins with
jacks until the jack base(s) are approximately 4” to 6”
off the ground.
8. Retract the lift cylinders bringing the rear main frame
connection into position. (By retracting the lift cylinder,
the weight of the front of the blade swings the back
frame upward, positioning the HQT Cylinder pins)
9. Activate the HQT Cylinder and ensure both axle pins
are engaged and fully secured.
10. Remove frame jacks and place in their storage
IMPORTANT: Close the ball valve to prevent
accidental operation of this circuit.
