Hydraulic Installation
H1. Install Hydraulic components as shown in Figure 12 provided.
A. Leave enough slack at the hitch pivot to allow folding machine without stretching or
pinching hydraulic hoses.
B. Secure hoses with nylon ties and clamps provided. Do not over tighten clamps
H2. Block the hitch hydraulic cylinders so the rods can extend 32 inches without contacting any
obstructions. Fully extend and retract cylinders 3 times to insure all air is purged from the
cylinders.
H3. Fully retract the left cylinder, which will fully extend the right cylinders as shown in the draw-
ing below.
H4. Swing the hitch to the eld position. Transferring the weight of the hitch from the transport
to the eld position may cause the machine to shift. Use caution during this step.
H5. Install the pin in the rod end of the left cylinder. This will set the correct position of the hitch.
H6. Position the right cylinder to the hitch. At this point the hole in the rod end of the left cylin-
der may not line up with the hole in the hitch. Install the provided shims (8P6020) so the
hole in the rod of cylinder lines up with the hole in the hitch. The amount of shims used will
vary. Do not install so many shims that it pushes the hole in the rod of the cylinder past the
center of the hole in the hitch. Installing the pins with to many shims behind the pivot will
cause undo stress on the cylinder. It may be necessary to cycle the hydraulics a minimum
amount to get holes to line up perfectly.
H7. Level the cylinders and tighten the hardware on the pivots.

towed vehicle or implement. Loss of control could result causing serious injury or death to you or
others. Never tow this implement with less than an 16,000 lb. vehicle
2. Ability to safely operate the Summers Land Roller is determined by both tractor horsepower and
weight. The minimum tractor weight for operating this implement is 16,000 lb. Minimum tractor
engine horsepower is 125. Dual tires or single tires set at maximum width are required for safe
operation of the Land Roller.
3. The Summers Land Roller must be connected to a tractor drawbar with a locked draw pin. The
tractor drawbar must be able to withstand 2000 lb of tongue weight during transport and eld operation.
4. Park tractor and Land Roller on a rm level surface with enough open area that will allow unfolding
Land Roller without contacting obstructions.
5. Unhook Hitch Pivot Safety Lock Chains. Hook Chains onto storage Rings located on the main
hitch. Open pivot lock hydraulic valve.
6. Operate tractor hydraulics from operator station only. Do not allow anyone to stand near the Land
Roller when folding or unfolding. Do not raise or lower Land Roller when implement is moving.
7. Place tractor in Neutral as the folding procedure may cause the tractor to roll.
8. Activate the lift cylinder hydraulic valve. Lower the machine completely to the ground; fully retract
lift cylinders so wheels rise off the ground.
9. Activate the hitch cylinder hydraulic valve. Fully cycle the pivot cylinders until the Land Roller no
longer rotates. During rotation the entire Land Roller may move to the right side of the tractor,
the tractor may also roll.
