SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)
All equipment is potentially hazardous. There is no substitute for a cautious, safe-minded operator who
recognizes potential hazards and follows reasonable safety practices.
Most accidents occur because of neglect or carelessness. Keep all helpers and bystanders fifty feet (50’) from
an operating power unit and attached equipment. Only properly trained people should operate this machine.
It is recommended the tractor be equipped with a Rollover Protection System (ROPS) and a seat belt that is
used. Always stop the tractor, set brake, shut off the engine, remove the ignition key, and lower loader and
attachment to the ground before dismounting. Never leave equipment unattended with the engine running.
This equipment is dangerous to children and persons unfamiliar with its operation. The operator should be a
responsible adult familiar with farm machinery and trained in this equipment’s operations. Do not allow per-
sons to operate or assemble this unit until they have read this manual and have developed a thorough
understanding of the safety precautions and of how it works.
Only use a power unit equipped with a ROPS cab or rollover protective structure. Keep foldable ROPS sys-
tems in “locked up” position at all times. Keep seat belt fastened.
Always use two people to handle heavy, unwieldy components during assembly, installation, removal, or
moving the implement.
Never place any part of your body where it would be in danger if movement should occur during assembly,
installation, operation, maintaining, repairing, removal, or moving the implement.
Never place yourself between the tractor and implement while implement is in operation.
Do not work under a raised implement unless it is securely blocked or held in position. Do not depend on the
tractor hydraulic system to hold the implement in place.
A heavy load can cause instability of the tractor. Use extreme care during travel. Slow down on turns and
watch out for bumps. The tractor may need front counter-weights to counter-balance the weight of the
implement.
Never use alcoholic beverages or drugs which can hinder alertness or coordination while operating this
equipment. Consult your doctor about operating this machine while taking prescription medications.
Do not allow others to ride on the tractor with an operator. Riders are subject to injury such as being struck by
foreign objects or being thrown off. Riders obstruct the operator’s view resulting in unsafe operation. Never
allow anyone to ride on the implement!
Before you operate the implement, check over all pins, bolts and connections to be sure all are securely in
place. Replace any damaged or worn parts immediately.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)
Never allow children to operate or be around equipment.
Use stabilizer bars, adjustable sway chains, or sway blocks on your tractor lift arms to keep the implement from
swinging side to side. Adjust as tightly as practical for best performance.
Keep alert and watch the front as well as the rear when working with the implement.
When maneuvering close to buildings or passing through narrow areas, be sure to allow sufficient clearance
for the implement.
Do not operate close to ditches or creeks. Slow down when operating over rough ground.
Always be sure the implement is in the fully raised position when in transport.
When removing, changing the angle, or reversing the rake, be sure that your feet are never under the rake.
Use extreme caution when backfilling deep holes or trenches.
Be careful to avoid catching the rake on stumps or other immovable objects.
Use care when working on slopes.
Avoid excessive speed during operation.
Make adjustments only when the implement is attached to the tractor.
When using the rake in a reverse position, use extra care. Do not ram rake into piles of dirt. Tractor lift arms
and the rake are not built to take high impact loads in this position. Ramming backwards can also dislodge
operator from seat and/or tractor controls, resulting in possible serious injury or death.
Always ease the tractor into the load. It may be necessary to reposition and take less “bite” on the material to
move it safely.
Operating spring steel rake tines may suddenly fling rocks and clods. Keep all bystanders 50 feet away and
operator must wear safety glasses.
Watch for and avoid hidden obstructions, i.e., buried pipes, rocks, concrete piers, uneven concrete slabs,
stumps, etc., when operating.
Stop power unit and equipment immediately upon striking an obstruction. Turn off engine, remove key, inspect,
and repair any damage before resuming operation.
Before leaving operator’s seat, lower lift arms and put attachment on the ground. Engage brake, stop engine,
remove key, and remove seat belt.
Never perform service or maintenance with engine running.

ASSEMBLY AND MOUNTING
——————————————————
Series rakes will fit these tractors if equipped with special
Cat. 0 pullpins. The pins need to be installed to the inside
of the 3 pt. frame.
Preview the assembly instructions and the exploded
view of the landscape rake in your operator’s manual and
become familiar as to how the parts or assemblies go
together.
Select an area for assembly that is clean and free from
debris.
The two main subassemblies of the landscape rake are
heavy and awkward to handle. It is recommended that
you have one or two helpers to complete the assembly.
Check the tractor’s 3 point hydraulic lift system. It should
operate up and down smoothly and hold its position when
set. Refer to your tractor owner’s manual or dealer for any
adjustments necessary to put the 3 point hydraulic lift
system in good working order. (I&T shop manuals will list
most specifications and adjustment instructions –
available from most farm equipment dealers.)
Tractor should be equipped with stabilizer bars,
adjustable sway chains, or sway blocks to keep the imple-
ment from swinging side to side.
1. On DCR and MCR models, assemble the “A” frame as
shown in the exploded parts view (pg. 12 or pg. 13).
2. It is suggested that you mount the main frame on the
3 point hitch of your tractor before assembling the
landscape rake as follows:
Smaller size tractors may need front counter weights to
counter-balance the weight of the implement.
a. Lower the 3 point hitch on your tractor to facilitate
mounting of the main frame of the rake to the
tractor.
b. Insert the lift arm pins on the main frame into the
ball sockets in the lift arms of the tractor 3 point
hitch. Pin in place with linchpins (not furnished).
WARNING!

cab and seat belt. Keep seat belt securely fastened.
Falling off power unit can result in death from being
run over or crushed. Keep foldable ROPS systems in
“locked up” position at all times.
NOTE: On DCR models – if your tractor has a Category
0 3 point hitch (20” drawbar spacing), then the lift arm
pins must be installed to the inside of the frame. If the
tractor has a Category I 3 point hitch (26” drawbar
spacing), then the pull pins must be installed on the
outside of the frame.
c. Attach the mast of the main frame to the tractor by
installing the tractor center (or top) link with a top
link pin (not furnished).
CAUTION!
Be sure your tractor and loader is in good condi-
tion. Read all the safety precautions and make sure
all equipment operators are familiar with the safety
rules of operation.

operation.
GAUGE WHEEL INSTALLATION
——————————————————
Level the A-frame and tinebar with 3 point connecting
links and top link. Adjusting the top link length will change
the fore and aft pitch of the teeth.
SINGLE WHEEL PACKAGE
(DCR Models Only)
Refer to the parts illustration and assemble the wheel
package to the center of the rake frame weldment using
(4) bolts, nuts and washers as shown. Grease the wheel
upon initial assembly.
Lengthening the top link will cause the teeth to contact
the ground with a sharper pitch and be more aggressive.
You may need to adjust the optional gauge wheels after
adjusting pitch to maintain the desired working depth.
DUAL WHEEL PACKAGE
(Recommended for rakes above 6’ in width
and all MCR and LRHD Series rakes)
FOR MODEL LRHD RAKES ONLY
Refer to the parts illustration and install the gauge
wheel arms approximately one foot in from each end of
the rake using longer carriage bolts provided. Grease the
wheels upon initial assembly.
For Category 1 Quick Hitch application, order optional
bushing kit part #862500 (one pair); place bushing over

OPERATION
LEVELING
OPERATION
——————————————————
The rake should be straight across, i.e., 90° to the line
of travel of the tractor, in other words 0° horizontal angle.
There should be 0° vertical angle, i.e., the lift arms on
the tractor 3 point hitch should be parallel to the ground.
The use of gauge wheels will make the leveling opera-
tion much easier and improve the quality of the job.
When using the rake with gauge wheels, you may need
to adjust the gauge wheels after adjusting pitch to
maintain the desired working depth.
The operator is responsible for the safe operation of this
equipment. The operator must be properly trained.
Operators should be familiar with the equipment, the
tractor, and all safety practices before starting operation.
Read the safety rules and safety decals on page 3
through page 6.
The landscape rake is designed for a wide range of
applications: loosening, leveling, and clearing soil or
debris.
The rake may be angled to windrow material to the side
for removal.
REVERSE OPERATION
Depending on the job, the angle grading or leveling
position may be used. For heavy work, use a regular 3
point rear blade.
WARNING!
Power unit must be equipped with ROPS or ROPS
cab and seat belt. Keep seat belt securely fastened.
Falling off power unit can result in death from being
run over or crushed. Keep foldable ROPS systems in
“locked up” position at all times.
NOTE: Most rakes and blades are damaged in this
position – use extra care – DO NOT RAM into obstruc-
tions (including hard packed dirt piles)!
WARNING!
RAKING
When using the rake in a reverse position, use extra
care – DO NOT RAM RAKE into dirt or packed snow
piles! Tractor lift arms and the rake are not built to
take high impact loads in this position. RAMMING
backwards can also dislodge operator from seat
and/or tractor controls, resulting in possible serious
injury.
Vegetative trash and clods or rocks may be raked into
piles or into windrows for easier pickup. DO NOT overload
rake – remove large rocks, roots, or limbs by other
means.
INCORPORATING SEED
Seed is best incorporated by making two passes in
diagonal directions. Consult your seed supplier or refer-
ence book for the recommended seed depth. Set the rake
straight and operate the rake at two times the
GRADING
Adjust the 3 point hitch upper link so that the frame of
the landscape rake is parallel with the ground. If gauge
wheels are used, adjust them for the amount of cut you
want to take, usually about 1”. Set the rake angle adjust-
ment as desired – straight for grading or angled for a
windrowing effect. It is recommended to operate the rake
at a slow speed (max. 3 mph) to give ample time for fine
material to flow through the tines.
recommended seed depth. Grass seed, for example,
1

should be covered approximately / ”. Operate the rake at
1
2
/ ” penetration and make two passes in diagonal direc-
tions. The use of gauge wheels will provide much better
depth control and improve the quality of the job.
ANGLE GRADING
These suggestions are generalities; best results will be
obtained after some experience.
The rake should be angled horizontally only enough to
allow the material to slide along it easily.The angle (tilt) of
the rake must be set to suit conditions. This is controlled
by the lift arm leveling assembly (turnbuckle) on the trac-
tor 3 point hitch.
NOTE: Do not load either end of the landscape rake
heavily. Try to balance the load on both ends of the land-
scape rake.

TRANSPORTING
WARNING!
——————————————————
Pay particular close attention to the Safety Messages
regarding transport. Avoid unnecessary injuries and
equipment damage by exercising cautious, conscientious
travel procedures.
Attaching the landscape rake to the tractor increases
the overall length of the working unit. Allow additional
clearance for the landscape rake to swing when turning.
Always place the rake straight across (90° to line of
travel) for transport.
NEVER GO UNDERNEATH EQUIPMENT. Never
place any part of the body underneath equipment or
between moveable parts even when the engine has
been turned off. Hydraulic system leak down,
hydraulic system failures, mechanical failures, or
movement of control levers can cause equipment to
drop or rotate unexpectedly and cause severe injury
or death.
Raise the landscape rake as high as possible for trans-
porting.
• Service work does not require going underneath.
• Read Manual for service instructions or have
service performed by a qualified dealer.
MAINTENANCE
——————————————————

who possess basic mechanical skills. If you need help,
your dealer has trained service technicians available. For
your protection, read and follow the safety information in
this manual.
WARNING!
Inspect the landscape rake for loose, damaged or worn
parts and adjust or replace if needed.
Repaint parts where paint is worn or scratched to pre-
vent rust.
Keep all persons away from operator control area
while performing adjustments, service, or mainte-
nance.
Check all bolts and nuts to be sure they are tight.
Periodically grease the gauge wheel assemblies.
Before dismounting power unit or performing any
service or maintenance, follow these steps: disen-
gage power to equipment, lower the 3 point hitch and
all raised components to the ground, operate valve
levers to release any hydraulic pressure, set parking
brake, stop engine, remove key, and unfasten seat
belt.
REPLACING RAKE TEETH
To service the landscape rake when attached to the
tractor, it must be blocked up off the ground.
1. Place two blocks under the tinebar. Lower the tinebar
