Important Safety Information

11/6/18

Important Safety Information

Listed below are common practices that may or may not be applicable to the products

described in this manual.



Tractor Shutdown & Storage

 If engaged, disengage power

take-off.

 Park on solid, level ground and

lower implement to ground or onto

support blocks.

Look for the Safety Alert Symbol

The SAFETY ALERT SYMBOL indicates there is a

potential hazard to personal safety involved and extra

safety precaution must be taken. When you see this

symbol, be alert and carefully read the message that

follows it. In addition to design and configuration of

equipment, hazard control, and accident prevention are

dependent upon the awareness, concern, prudence, and

proper training of personnel involved in the operation,

transport, maintenance, and storage of equipment.

Safety Precautions for

Children

Tragedy can occur if the operator

is not alert to the presence of

children. Children generally are

attracted to implements and their

work.

 Never assume children will remain

where you last saw them.

 Keep children out of the work area

and under the watchful eye of a

responsible adult.

 Be alert and shut the implement

and tractor down if children enter

the work area.

 Never carry children on the tractor

or implement. There is not a safe

place for them to ride. They may

fall off and be run over or interfere

with the control of the power

machine.

 Never allow children to operate the

power machine, even under adult

supervision.

 Never allow children to play on the

power machine or implement.

 Use extra caution when backing

up. Before the tractor starts to

move, look down and behind to

make sure the area is clear.

Safety at All Times

Careful operation is your best

assurance against an accident.

All operators, no matter how much

experience they may have, should

carefully read this manual and

other related manuals, or have the

manuals read to them, before

operating the power machine and

this implement.

 Thoroughly read and understand

the “Safety Label” section. Read

all instructions noted on them.

 Do not operate the equipment

while under the influence of drugs

or alcohol as they impair the ability

to safely and properly operate the

equipment.

 The operator should be familiar

with all functions of the tractor and

attached implement and be able to

handle emergencies quickly.

 Make sure all guards and shields

appropriate for the operation are in

place and secured before

operating implement.

 Keep all bystanders away from

equipment and work area.

 Start tractor from the driver’s seat

with hydraulic controls in neutral.

 Operate tractor and controls from

the driver’s seat only.

 Never dismount from a moving

tractor or leave tractor unattended

with engine running.

 Do not allow anyone to stand

between tractor and implement

while backing up to implement.

 Keep hands, feet, and clothing

away from power-driven parts.

 While transporting and operating

equipment, watch out for objects

overhead and along side such as

fences, trees, buildings, wires, etc.

 Do not turn tractor so tight as to

cause hitched implement to ride

up on the tractor’s rear wheel.

 Store implement in an area where

children normally do not play.

When needed, secure attachment

against falling with support blocks.

Be Aware of

Signal Words

A signal word designates a degree or

level of hazard seriousness. The

signal words are:

Indicates a hazardous situation that, if

not avoided, will result in death or

serious injury.

Indicates a hazardous situation that, if

not avoided, could result in death or

serious injury.

Indicates a hazardous situation that, if

not avoided, may result in minor or

moderate injury.

WARNING

CAUTION

DANGER

Important Safety Information

11/6/18

Listed below are common practices that may or may not be applicable to the products

described in this manual.

Practice Safe Maintenance

 Understand procedure before doing

work. Refer to the Operator’s

Manual for additional information.

 Work on a level surface in a clean

dry area that is well-lit.

 Lower implement to the ground and

follow all shutdown procedures

before leaving the operator’s seat to

perform maintenance.

 Do not work under any hydraulic

supported equipment. It can settle,

suddenly leak down, or be lowered

accidentally. If it is necessary to

work under the equipment, securely

support it with stands or suitable

blocking beforehand.

 Use properly grounded electrical

outlets and tools.

 Use correct tools and equipment for

the job that are in good condition.

 Allow equipment to cool before

working on it.

 Disconnect battery ground cable (-)

before servicing or adjusting

electrical systems or before welding

on implement.

 Inspect all parts. Make certain

parts are in good condition &

installed properly.

 Replace parts on this implement

with genuine Land Pride parts only.

Do not alter this implement in a way

which will adversely affect its

performance.

 Do not grease or oil implement

while it is in operation.

 Remove buildup of grease, oil, or

debris.

 Always make sure any material and

waste products from the repair and

maintenance of the implement are

properly collected and disposed.

 Remove all tools and unused parts

before operation.

 Do not weld or torch on galvanized

metal as it will release toxic fumes.

Use A Safety Chain

 A safety chain will help control

drawn machinery should it

separate from the tractor drawbar.

 Use a chain with the strength

rating equal to or greater than the

gross weight of the towed

implement.

 Attach the chain to the tractor

drawbar support or other specified

anchor location. Allow only

enough slack in the chain to

permit turning.

 Always hitch the implement to the

machine towing it. Do not use the

safety chain tow the implement.

Transport Safely

 Comply with federal, state, and

local laws.

 Use towing vehicle and trailer of

adequate size and capacity. Secure

equipment towed on a trailer with

tie downs and chains.

 Sudden braking can cause a towed

trailer to swerve and upset. Reduce

speed if towed trailer is not

equipped with brakes.

 Avoid contact with any overhead

utility lines or electrically charged

conductors.

 Always drive with load on end of

loader arms low to the ground.

 Always drive straight up and down

steep inclines with heavy end of a

tractor with loader attachment on

the “uphill” side.

 Engage park brake when stopped

on an incline.

 Maximum transport speed for an

attached equipment is 20 mph. DO

NOT EXCEED. Never travel at a

speed which does not allow

adequate control of steering and

stopping. Some rough terrains

require a slower speed.

 As a guideline, use the following

maximum speed weight ratios for

attached equipment:

20 mph when weight of attached

equipment is less than or equal

to the weight of machine towing

the equipment.

10 mph when weight of attached

equipment exceeds weight of

machine towing equipment but

not more than double the weight.

 IMPORTANT: Do not tow a load

that is more than double the weight

of the vehicle towing the load.

Tire Safety

 Tire changing can be dangerous

and must be performed by

trained personnel using the

correct tools and equipment.

 Always maintain correct tire

pressure. Do not inflate tires

above recommended pressures

shown in the Operator’s Manual.

 When inflating tires, use a clip-on

chuck and extension hose long

enough to allow you to stand to

one side and NOT in front of or

over the tire assembly. Use a

safety cage if available.

 Securely support the implement

when changing a wheel.

 When removing and installing

wheels, use wheel handling

equipment adequate for the

weight involved.

 Make sure wheel bolts have been

tightened to the specified torque.

Important Safety Information

11/6/18

Listed below are common practices that may or may not be applicable to the products

described in this manual.

Avoid High

Pressure Fluids Hazard

 Escaping fluid under pressure can

penetrate the skin causing serious

injury.

 Before disconnecting hydraulic

lines or performing work on the

hydraulic system, be sure to

release all residual pressure.

 Make sure all hydraulic fluid

connections are tight and all

hydraulic hoses and lines are in

good condition before applying

pressure to the system.

 Use a piece of paper or

cardboard, NOT BODY PARTS, to

check for suspected leaks.

 Wear protective gloves and safety

glasses or goggles when working

with hydraulic systems.

 DO NOT DELAY. If an accident

occurs, see a doctor familiar with

this type of injury immediately. Any

fluid injected into the skin or eyes

must be treated within

a few hours or

gangrene may

result.

Wear Personal Protective

Equipment (PPE)

 Wear protective clothing and

equipment appropriate for the job

such as safety shoes, safety

glasses, hard hat, and ear plugs.

 Clothing should fit snug without

fringes and pull strings to avoid

entanglement with moving parts.

 Prolonged exposure to loud noise

can cause hearing impairment or

hearing loss. Wear suitable

hearing protection such as

earmuffs or earplugs.

 Operating equipment safely

requires the operator’s full

attention. Avoid wearing

headphones while operating

equipment.

Use Seat Belt and ROPS

 Land Pride recommends the use

of a CAB or roll-over-protective-

structures (ROPS) and seat belt

in almost all power machines.

Combination of a CAB or ROPS

and seat belt will reduce the risk

of serious injury or death if the

power machine should be upset.

 If ROPS is in the locked-up

position, fasten seat belt snugly

and securely to help protect

against serious injury or death

from falling and machine overturn.

Keep Riders Off

Machinery

 Never carry riders on tractor or

implement.

 Riders obstruct operator’s view

and interfere with the control of

the power machine.

 Riders can be struck by objects or

thrown from the equipment.

 Never use tractor or implement to

lift or transport riders.

Avoid Underground

Utilities

 Dig Safe, Call 811 (USA).

Always contact your local utility

companies (electrical, telephone,

gas, water, sewer, and others)

before digging so that they may

mark the location of any

underground services in the area.

 Be sure to ask how close you can

work to the marks they positioned.

Prepare for Emergencies

 Be prepared if a fire starts.

 Keep a first aid kit and fire

extinguisher handy.

 Keep emergency numbers for

doctor, ambulance, hospital, and

fire department near phone.

911

Use Safety

Lights and Devices

 Slow moving tractors, skid steers,

self-propelled machines, and towed

equipment can create a hazard

when driven on public roads. They

are difficult to see, especially at

night. Use the Slow Moving Vehicle

sign (SMV) when on public roads.

 Flashing warning lights and turn

signals are recommended

whenever driving on public roads.

Driveline Installation

DANGER

To avoid serious injury or death:

• Do not engage power take-off while hooking-up or

unhooking the driveline, or while someone is standing near

the driveline. A person’s body and/or clothing can become

entangled in the driveline.

• All guards and shields must be installed and in good

working condition while operating the implement.

• Do not use a power take-off adapter. The adapter will

increase strain on the tractor’s power take-off shaft causing

possible damage to shaft and driveline. It will also defeat

the purpose of the tractor’s power take-off shield.

WARNING

To avoid serious injury or death:

Always shut tractor down using “Tractor Shutdown

Procedure” provided in this manual before dismounting

tractor.

CAUTION

To avoid minor or moderate injury:

Some tractors are equipped with two power take-off speeds.

Do not exceed 540 rpm power take-off speed or equipment

breakage may result.

Refer to Figure 1-1 on page 10:

1. Park tractor on a level surface. Slowly engage tractor

3-point lift lever to raise rake until gearbox shaft (#1)

is in line (level) with tractor power take-off shaft.

2. Support rake at this height with support jacks or

blocks to keep rake from drifting down.

3. Place gear selector in park, set park brake, shut

tractor off, and remove switch key.

4. It is best if driveline is lubricated before installing.

Refer to “Lubrication Points” on page 25.

IMPORTANT: An additional driveline may be

required. See "Check Driveline Collapsible Length"

on this page for additional information.

IMPORTANT: The driveline must be lubricated

before putting it into service. Refer to “Lubrication

Points” on page 25.

IMPORTANT: The power take-off shaft and gearbox

input shaft must be aligned and level with each other

when checking driveline minimum length. A driveline

that is too long can damage tractor and implement.

NOTE: Bell housing (#2) is longer than (#3) and

surrounds pull collar (#4). Inner yoke pull collar (#4)

attaches to rake gearbox input shaft (#1).

driveline onto power take-off shaft, skip to “Check

Driveline Collapsible Length” on page 12.

8. Driveline (#3) should now be moved back and forth at

both ends to ensure yokes are secured to tractor and

rake power shafts. Reattach any end that is loose.

Check Driveline Collapsible Length

Refer to Figure 1-2:

1. Make sure driveline is properly installed and level

before checking driveline collapsible length. (Refer to

“Driveline Installation” instructions on page 11 if

needed.)

2. With driveline level, measure 1" (“B” dimension)

back from universal joint shield to end of outer

driveline shield as shown in Figure 1-2 on page 12. If

measurement is less than 1", then shorten driveline

using instructions provided on this page.

IMPORTANT: A driveline that is too long can bottom

out causing structural damage to the tractor and

implement. Always check driveline minimum length

during initial setup, when connecting to a different

tractor, and when alternating between using a quick

hitch and a standard 3-point hitch. More than one

driveline may be required to fit all applications.

possible damage to shaft and driveline. It will also defeat

the purpose of the tractor’s power take-off shield.

WARNING

To avoid serious injury or death:

• "Always shut tractor down using “Tractor Shutdown

Procedure” provided in this manual before dismounting

tractor."

• Do not use implement as a man lift, work platform or as a

wagon to carry objects. It is not properly designed or

guarded for this use.

• "Never carry riders on the implement or tractor. Riders can

obstruct the operator’s view, interfere with control of the

equipment, be pinched by moving components, become

entangled in rotating components, be struck by objects, be

thrown or fall from the equipment, etc."

• Buildup of debris around moving components and

gearboxes is a fire hazard. Keep rotating parts and

gearboxes free from debris to avoid serious injury and

property damage.

• Improper oil level can cause bearing failure and be a fire

hazard. Maintain proper gearbox oil level to avoid serious

injury and property damage.

• "Do not operate a broken or bent driveline. Such a driveline

will break apart while rotating at high speeds and can cause

serious injury or death. Always remove the implement from

Tractor & Power Rake Inspection

Make the following inspections after attaching the

Powered Rake to the tractor. Make certain power take-off

is disengaged and completely stopped before continuing.

1. Inspect tractor safety equipment to make sure it is in

good working condition.

2. Carefully raise and lower implement with the

Powered Rake set at the maximum 15 degree angle

to ensure that the drawbar, tires, and other

equipment on the tractor do not contact the frame or

driveline.

3. Check all hoses and wires to be sure that they will not

contact driveline. Check power take-off guards to

make certain they are in good condition and in place.

4. Inspect hydraulic hoses for wear, damage, and

hydraulic leaks. See “Avoid High Pressure Fluids

Hazard” on page 3

. Replace damaged and worn

hoses with genuine Land Pride parts.

5. Set tractor throttle to idle or slightly above idle and

slowly engage the power take-off. Once the Powered

Rake is running smoothly, increase tractor power

take-off speed to the rated power take-off speed.

Stop power take-off rotation immediately if vibration

occurs. Wait for the power take-off to come to a

complete stop and then dismount from the tractor to

check for probable causes.

Transporting

WARNING

To avoid serious injury or death:

When traveling on roadways, travel in such a way that other

vehicles may pass you safely. Use LED lights, clean reflectors,

and a slow moving vehicle sign that is visible from the back to

warn operators in other vehicles of your presence. Always

comply with all federal, state, and local laws.

1. Be sure that the driveline does not contact tractor or

Powered Rake when raising the Powered Rake to the

transport position.

2. Be sure to reduce tractor ground speed when

turning; and to leave enough clearance between the

Powered Rake and other obstacles such as

buildings, trees, or fences to prevent damage from

contacting them.

3. Select a safe ground speed when transporting from

one area to another. When traveling on roadways,

transport in such a way that faster moving vehicles

may pass you safely.

4. Shift tractor to a lower gear when traveling over rough

or hilly terrain.

IMPORTANT: ALWAYS disengage power take-off

before raising the Powered Rake to transport

position.

General Operating Instructions

First, completely familiarize yourself with the Operator’s

Manual. Then complete the Operator’s checklist,

properly attach the Powered Rake to your tractor, make

initial depth, level, and roller angle adjustments. After

completing the above, you will need to choose a work

site, perform operational safety checks, and make final

adjustments before using your Land Pride Powered

Rake.

It’s now time for a running operational safety check. Make

certain that the tractor’s park brake is engaged, power

take-off is disengaged, and the Powered Rake is resting

on the ground. Start the tractor and back off engine rpm

to approximately one-quarter throttle. Using the rear draft

link hydraulic control, lift the Powered Rake about half

way off the ground and then engage the rear power take-

off. If everything is running smoothly, increase throttle

speed until you have reached full operating speed. Never

engage the tractor power take-off at full engine rpm.,

damage to the driveline and/or Powered Rake could

occur.

To make final adjustments, choose a work site that is dry

and allows you to make at least a 50 ft. straight run. Raise

Powered Rake half way off the ground, disengage tractor

power take-off, release the park brake, and travel to your

starting point. Travel speed should be between 3 and 5

mph.

Once at the site, idle the tractor engine, engage the

power take-off, and then increase engine speed until the

tractor is at full 540 rpm operating speed. Begin traveling

forward while gently lowering the running Powered Rake

to the ground. Make slight changes to the tractor’s ground

speed as you travel forward to determine the desired

ground finish. Generally, a slower speed results in a finer

finish, while a higher speed results in a coarser finish.

Excessive ground speed may result in dirt or material

passing over the top of the material control deflector or

too much material being windrowed off to the side.

Powered Rakes do not perform well in wet sticky soil.

Avoid making sharp turns or backing-up when in contact

with the ground.

Normal operating rake angle is 15 degrees left or right.

However, you may want to make subtle hydraulic

adjustments to the roller angle to determine varying

effect on the surface finish.

IMPORTANT: Shut off all power, disengage power

take-off, set park brake, and remove ignition key any

time the Powered Rake is not operating properly or

needs adjustment.

You can also vary the effect on the surface finish by

setting the material control deflector height above the

roller. The material control deflector sifts out clods, rocks,

and other debris as the soil passes over the top of the

roller. Adjusting the blade down decreases the gap

between the deflector and roller and will sift out more

objects for a finer soil finish. Adjusting the blade up allows

more clods, rocks, and debris to pass over the roller and

produces a coarser soil finish.

Set working depth and level the rake at the caster gauge

wheels and not with the tractor. Normally a one-inch

cultivation depth is considered ideal for a surface finish.

Make adjustments to the working depth if too many rocks

or excessive debris pass under the roller by changing the

C-spacers on the gauge wheel spindles. Increase

working depth by moving the spacers from below the

support arms to above the support arms. Decrease

working depth by moving the spacers from above the

gauge wheel support arms to below the support arms.

The Powered Rake should also be set to operate level. It

has a tendency to go in deeper on the driveline side (left

side) because that is the heavy side of the rake.

Compensate for this by changing the C-spacers on the

right gauge wheel so that it is set approximately 1"

deeper than the left gauge wheel.

After you have traveled 50 feet, properly shut down the

tractor and Powered Rake to inspect the finish and

determine what, if any, additional adjustments need to be

made. Check for any foreign objects wrapped around the

roller or lodged between moving parts.

Remember that the right finish is achieved through a

combination of proper soil moisture conditions, operating

depth, ground speed, material control deflector opening

and roller angle. Your Powered Raking capabilities will

improve rapidly with experience.
