2.
Slowly lower the power rake to the ground.
3.
Engage the hydraulic-control lever for auxiliary
implements.
4.
Move the traction unit forward or backward as
desired.

Setting the Barrier Gap
The normal gap between the roller and the barrier for
average conditions is approximately 3.2 cm (1-1/4
inches).
The barrier gap should be the same all the way across.
Set the barrier gap as follows:
•
To widen the barrier gap, loosen the 2 U-bolts (3/8
inch) that hold the barrier mount
Note:
A wider opening will allow more dirt and
rock to pass through.

1. U bolts (3/8 inch)
•
To narrow the barrier gap, tighten the 2 U-bolts
(3/8 inch) that hold the barrier mount
Important:
Ensure that the roller does not hit the
barrier, as the parts could be damaged.
