Setting up your ABI TR3 Rake Tractor Implement correctly is key to achieving optimal performance. Here's a step-by-step guide:
-
Initial Setup:
- Connect the tractor to the TR3's lower arms using the designated connecting holes.
- Ensure your tractor's drawbar is pushed in before attaching the TR3.
- Adjust the scarifiers to the required depth for ripping.
- Remove the bent pins securing the leveling blade's upright mast.
- Mount the stabilizing wheels in the center hole on their bracket.
- Use the top link to adjust the TR3 so that both the leveling blade and finish rake contact the ground simultaneously.
-
Scarifier Adjustment:
- Raise or lower the scarifiers to achieve your desired working depth.
- Make sure scarifiers are not touching the ground when pushing material rearward.
-
Driveway Grading:
- Use the scarifiers to loosen the gravel, then grade and compact the driveway with the leveling blade and finish rake.
-
Stabilizing Wheel Maintenance:
- Regularly grease the stabilizing wheels every three months and before and after storage to ensure smooth operation.
-
Arena Leveling:
- For arena leveling, we recommend watching the detailed video on the ABI support page.
-
Optional Attachments:
- If you're using optional components like the Rail Blade, Rail Buster, Hydraulic Top Link, or Profiler Attachment, follow the specific instructions provided for each attachment.
-
TR3 Rolling Basket:
- Attach the rolling basket and make the necessary adjustments so it sits firmly on the arena surface for the desired results. For further assistance or specific questions, please contact ABI Attachments Customer Support.
