Horsepower Requirements The power requirement for this unit is 20-40 hp. per shank, depending on the depth of pen- etration and ground conditions.
  • Page 84: Attaching To Tractor

    RIPPER-STRIPPER — Operation Attaching To Tractor • Operating a 3-point implement with an articulated four-wheel drive or track tractor requires the operator to drive straight to prevent damage to the implement. Sudden turns or steer- ing corrections when the implement is in the ground can exert extreme forces through the implement’s frame and/or shank components.

    RIPPER-STRIPPER — Operation Flex Hydraulic (Optional) — Field Operation Your Ripper-Stripper implement features dual function cylinders that are designed with 2 separate chambers in the one cylinder body. The longer 48” cylinder end folds the wings between transport and working positions. In field operation, tractor hydraulics allow the longer cylinder rods to piston in or out as the wings follow field contours.

Activate SCV#1 to pull wings up level (short end of cylinders). Activate SCV#2 to fold the wings (long end of cylinders). NOTE: If SCV#1 is not done before activating SCV#2, unit may not fold.
  • Page 97 RIPPER-STRIPPER — Operation Flex Hydraulic (Optional) — Field Operation (continued) Raising Subsoiler On Field Ends Raise tractor 3-point on the end, and simultaneously activate SCV#1 to retract the short end of the cylinders to tilt wings to approximate level with main frame. (Timer may need to be adjusted from 4-5 seconds to match tractor 3-point speed.) Extend short cylinders when lowering machine back down to working position.
  • Page 98: Preparing Implement

    To determine the precise location of the hard- pan, a “penetrometer” should be used (FIG. 3-20). For more information on this device, refer to your local Unverferth dealer or contact us, at Unverferth Mfg. Co., Inc. om-01124 An alternate method of locating the hardpan is to dig a hole to a depth of 24” or greater.
  • Page 99: Support Stand

    RIPPER-STRIPPER — Operation Preparing Implement (continued) Raise stabilizer wheel so that it is approximately 2-3 inches more than the determined depth of the hardpan, and retighten locking nut. • It is recommended that the stabilizer wheels are 1/2” to 1” off the ground during operation. This transfers more draft and weight onto the tractor rear tires for maximum traction.
