OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE

Tractor Preparation

The Landoll 6230 Disc is designed to be pulled by tractor
equipped with a double lip or clevis type hitch. If your
tractor is not equipped as such, you need to purchase the
hitch from your local tractor dealer. If your Disc is
equipped with the clevis option, this should be removed.
The clevis option is only for transport use.
Before attaching the Disc, prepare the tractor as follows:
1. Inflate the rear tractor tires equally and add ballast
according to the tractor operator's manual.
2. Lock the tractor drawbar in the center position.

Disc Preparation

1. Prior to operating the 6230 Disc, inspect it thoroughly
for good operating condition.
2. Replace worn or missing parts.
3. When the machine is new, check the bolt tightness
after a few hours of operation. Tighten any loose nuts
or bolts. Check the lift wheel lug bolts daily.
4. Check the lift wheel tire inflation. Inflate all tires
equally to avoid side draft. Follow the tire
manufacturer's recommended pressures listed on
the sidewall of the tires.
5. Check disc scrapers for proper adjustment to the disc
blade (See Figure 4-1.)
6. Lubricate the machine (See Figure 4-20.) (Also
refer to "Lubrication Maintenance" on page 4-25).
