The purpose of this manual is to assist you in operating and maintaining your Box Scraper and/or Rear
Blade. Read it carefully. It furnishes information and
instructions that will help you achieve years of

experience and these instructions, you should be able
to develop procedures suitable to your particular situation.
4 Introduction
The illustrations and data used in this manual were
current at the time of printing. However, due to possible inline production changes, your machine may vary

Safety is a primary concern in the design and
manufacture of our products. Unfortunately, our
efforts to provide safe equipment can be wiped
out by an operator’s single careless act.
In addition to the design and configuration of
equipment, hazard control and accident prevention are dependent upon the awareness, concern, judgement, and proper training of
personnel involved in the operation, transport,
maintenance, and storage of equipment.
It has been said, “The best safety device is an
informed, careful operator.” We ask you to be
that kind of operator.
SAFETY RULES
ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!

attachments are in transport position. Without this
weight, front tractor wheels could raise up resulting in loss of steering. The weight may be attained
with front wheel weights, ballast in tires or front
tractor weights. Weigh the tractor and equipment.
Do not estimate.
Consult local utilities before working. Know
location of all underground cables, pipelines, overhead wires, and other hazards in working area and
avoid contact.
