TRACTOR PREPARATION
The Landoll 850 Finisholl is designed to be
pulled by tractor equipped with a double lip or cle-
vis type hitch. If your tractor is not equipped as
such, you need to purchase the hitch from your lo-
cal tractor dealer. If your Finisholl is equipped with
the clevis option, this should be removed. The cle-
vis option is only for transport use. Before attach-
ing the Finisholl, prepare the tractor as follows:

4-1.1
Inflate the rear tractor tires equally and
add ballast according to the tractor opera-
tor's manual.
4-1.2
Lock the tractor drawbar in the center
position.
4-2.1
Prior to operating the 850 Finisholl, in-
spect it thoroughly for good operating condi-
tion.
4-2.2
Replace worn or missing parts.
4-2.3
When the machine is new, check the
bolt tightness after a few hours of operation.
Tighten any loose nuts or bolts. Check the
gauge wheel lug bolts daily.
4-2.4
Check the gauge wheel tire inflation. In-
flate all tires equally to avoid side draft. Fol-
low the tire manufacturer's recommended
pressures listed on the sidewall of the tires.
4-2.5
Check disc scrapers for proper adjust-
ment to the disc blade. (See Figure 4-1). To
adjust the pressure of the disc gang scrap-
ers, loosen the u-bolts that clamp the assem-
bly to the disc gang and slide the scraper as-
sembly into the disc blades. Only enough
pressure is required to keep the disc blades
clean. The scraper blades are reversible to
allow extended use before replacement is re-
quired.
4-2.6
Lubricate the machine as shown in Sec-
tion 4-5.8 (See Figure 4-11).
