The three following symbols and text in bold letters are used throughout this manual to call your attention to instructions concerning your personal safety: DANGER! It indicates an emergency which, if not avoided, may result in injury or death. This sign calls your attention to a most serious danger. DRESSTA TD-15H https://www.truck-manuals.net/...
Page 13
NOTE: This sign and text in italics is used throughout this manual to call your attention to an important function having influence on the right functioning of a machine or for informational purposes. 1.2. SERIAL NUMBERS Fig. 1.2. Product Identification Number Fig. 1.2A.Product Identification Number (P.I.N.) (P.I.N.) on the Filters Cover TD-15H DRESSTA https://www.truck-manuals.net/...
Fig. 1.4. Serial Number Designation of Blade. The equipment model designation is stamped on the back of the blade or stamped on the plate attached in this same place, near the top right hand corner (Fig. 1.4). DRESSTA TD-15H https://www.truck-manuals.net/...
Page 15
(Fig. 1.5.). All other components having serial numbers are equipped with a separate serial number plate. Use machine serial numbers when requesting information or ordering parts and the proper numbers from the Parts Catalogue. TD-15H DRESSTA https://www.truck-manuals.net/...
Page 20
The machine should be equipped with a fully charged fire extinguisher. All personnel should be instructed in proper usage. Recharge immediately after use. If machine is equipment with Grammer operator's seat the extinguisher is placed in the cab on the left hand side of the operator’s seat (Fig. 2.1). DRESSTA TD-15H https://www.truck-manuals.net/...
Electrical system is 24-volt negative ground. Each machine is equipped with a starting receptacle. It should be used when starting the machine using booster batteries. In case the receptacle cannot be used the following precautions must be taken to minimize chances of injury or damage to electrical parts. TD-15H DRESSTA https://www.truck-manuals.net/...
Page 22
Do not start the engine until any unsafe conditions are corrected. Secure all caps and filler plugs. Know and understand the traffic flow patterns of your job and obey flagman, signs and signals. DRESSTA TD-15H https://www.truck-manuals.net/...
Never use a cable that is damaged. Failure to follow these precautions could result in serious injuries. Never mix gasoline, gasohol and/or alcohol with diesel fuel. This practice creates an extreme fire hazard and under certain conditions an explosion, which could result in personal injury or death. TD-15H DRESSTA https://www.truck-manuals.net/...
When operating a machine, look in the intended direction of travel to be sure personnel or allied equipment does not interfere with the machine work pattern. Never try to get on or off a machine while it is moving. A serious injury or death could result. DRESSTA TD-15H https://www.truck-manuals.net/...
Page 25
Have all equipment resting on the ground or blocked before removing any hydraulic component. Actuate the control levers in opposite directions to relieve all pressure from the system. Never work beneath a blade or ripper without proper blocking. Improper blocking could result in serious injuries. TD-15H DRESSTA https://www.truck-manuals.net/...
Lower the blade and/or the ripper before making hydraulic adjustments. To prevent personal injury, be sure the personnel are standing out of the way of the blade when it is being lowered. Never allow anyone to walk under or be near unblocked raised equipment. DRESSTA TD-15H https://www.truck-manuals.net/...
Page 27
3. For your own personal safety, always remove the ether container when welding, grinding or using a torch on the machine. 4. Do not let ether come in contact with your skin, as it can cause local freezing. TD-15H DRESSTA https://www.truck-manuals.net/...
Keep away from a blade and ripper when they are in a raised position. Do not allow the hydraulic system to support the mounted equipment when leaving a machine unattended, to eliminate possibility of an unexpected drop of the blade or ripper. DRESSTA TD-15H https://www.truck-manuals.net/...

Pouring cold coolant into the engine may result in damage to cast components of the engine. Never use water alone in the cooling system. Fill the fuel tank at the end of each day's work to reduce moisture condensation in the tank. DRESSTA TD-15H https://www.truck-manuals.net/...
NOTE: In cold weather, if no louver is mounted, it may be necessary to cover part of the radiator to maintain the minimum coolant temperature indicated at the lower end of the GREEN area. The engine temperature under full load should remain in the GREEN of the gauge. DRESSTA TD-15H https://www.truck-manuals.net/...

(depending upon the side to be tilted). Shut off the engine. Refer to “STOPPING THE ENGINE”. b) Adjust the mechanical strut as described under “TILTING THE BLADE WITH MECHANICAL TILT”. TD-15H DRESSTA https://www.truck-manuals.net/...
Page 75
2. To pitch the blade backward (decreasing suction angle), the upper strut must be shortened on each side of the blade an equal amount A given on Fig. 4.27. 3. After making the adjustments, secure the upper strut with the locking pin so it will not rotate. DRESSTA TD-15H https://www.truck-manuals.net/...
Page 76
7. Lock the strut trunnion in place through the C-frame bracket with lock pin chained to the lower strut. Loosen the clamping screws and nuts on the lower struts so that the strut eyebolt can be adjusted to fit into the swivel block. Fig. 4.28. Adjusting the Diagonal Angle of Blade TD-15H DRESSTA https://www.truck-manuals.net/...
Page 77
9. Level the blade so one end does not dig in deeper than the other. This can be done by adjusting either or both upper struts. Refer to “LEVELLING THE BLADE” Fig. 4.30. Swivel Pin Adjustment Gap. 1. C-frame 2. Swivel Pin 3. Gap DRESSTA TD-15H https://www.truck-manuals.net/...

4. Having determined the “neutral” position, shorten each upper strut by 1 full turn. NOTE: Adjustment made in step 4 must be made only if all strut adjustments have been made with blade raised off the ground. 5. Reinstall the upper strut locking pins. TD-15H DRESSTA https://www.truck-manuals.net/...
Page 79
Crossing ditches, ridges, rock or logs should be done slowly and, at an angle. This slows the fall, lessens the danger of upsetting the machine and reduces the fall jolt, which can be harmful to the operator and machine. DRESSTA TD-15H https://www.truck-manuals.net/...
When using Method 2, make a cut wide enough to avoid trapping the tractor. Fig. 4.33. Cutting Down a Pile or Hill 1. Method 1 2. Method 2 TD-15H DRESSTA https://www.truck-manuals.net/...
Page 81
Soft soil or shallow slopes may allow the side hill cut to be made as shown in Fig. 4.35. Increased stability is realized by running the uphill track inside the ridge left by the first cut.

Never use water alone because water will allow rust, scale deposits, and corrosion to occur within the system. 5.8.1. WATER Use water, which has a low mineral content. Water used in conjunction with antifreeze, coolant filters and inhibited water must meet the following standards: DRESSTA TD-15H https://www.truck-manuals.net/...
Page 108
If the concentration is too high it causes plugging problems in the cooling system, which reduces heat transfer. Cooling system conditioners, which contain these inhibitors, must be added or filters replaced to maintain corrosion protection. TD-15H DRESSTA https://www.truck-manuals.net/...
