3ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
It is very important that your new SS7600 Se-
ries Soil Saver be properly assembled, adjusted
and lubricated before use. Illustrations to assist
with the assembly process are provided in Section
2, “Standard Specifications”. They show proper
shank, disc gang and mounting bracket spacings.
Illustrations in this section show proper assembly
procedures. Remove paint from grease fittings. Re-
place any grease fittings that are damaged or
missing. Be sure to return bolts, clips, etc., to their
original locations.
To insure alignment of assemblies, leave the
nuts loose until completion of final assembly.
Use lock washers or flatwashers as specified.
Spread all cotter pins.
After completion of final assembly, tighten all
nuts evenly to prevent misalignment, distortion or
binding. Tighten all bolts and nuts to the recom-
mended torques shown in Table 2-1, “Standard
Bolt Torques”.
DANGER
DISC BLADES ARE EXTREMELY
SHARP. EXERCISE EXTREME CARE
WHEN WORKING ON OR NEAR DISC
BLADES. DO NOT ALLOW DISCS TO
ROLL OVER OR FALL ONTO ANY BOD-
ILY PART. DO NOT ALLOW
WRENCHES TO SLIP WHEN WORKING
NEAR DISC BLADES. NEVER PUSH
WRENCHES TOWARD DISC BLADES.
DO NOT CLIMB OVER MACHINE
ABOVE DISC BLADES. FAILURE TO
STAY CLEAR OF DISC BLADE EDGES
CAN CAUSE SERIOUS PERSONAL IN-
JURY OR DEATH.
CAUTION
INCORRECT ADJUSTMENT OF DISC
ADJUST RODS WILL CAUSE PERMA-
NENT EQUIPMENT DAMAGE.
WARNING
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO LIFT HEAVY
PARTS (SUCH AS THE FRAME, DISC
GANGS, ROCK SHAFT, AND PULL
HITCH) MANUALLY. USE A HOIST OR
A FORK LIFT TO MOVE THESE PARTS
INTO POSITION.
DANGER
TO PREVENT ACCIDENTAL LOWER-
ING:
1. ALL HYDRAULICALLY ELEVATED
EQUIPMENT MUST BE LOCKED OUT
USING THE CYLINDER LOCKOUTS:
2. LOWER EQUIPMENT TO THE
GROUND WHILE SERVICING OR
WHEN IT IS IDLE.
FAILURE TO TAKE MEASURES TO
PREVENT ACCIDENTAL LOWERING
MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL
INJURY OR DEATH.
CAUTION
BE SURE DEPTH STOPS ARE EQUAL
LENGTHS ON ALL CYLINDERS. USING
UNEQUAL DEPTH STOP LENGTHS
CAN CAUSE PERMANENT EQUIP-
MENT DAMAGE.
CAUTION
BE SURE TO BLEED THE HYDRAULIC
SYSTEM OF ALL AIR IN LINES AFTER
INSTALLATION. FAILURE TO BLEED
THE SYSTEM OF ALL AIR CAN RE-
SULT IN IMPROPER MACHINE OPERA-
TION.

Figure 3-1 Tandem Axle Frame Assembly

3-1 SINGLE AXLE MODEL FRAME ASSEMBLY
No assembly is needed for the single axle
model frame. However, it needs to be placed on
stands about 36" high in an open, level area. If
your Soil Saver is equipped with frame extensions,
see Section 3-2.4 and 3-2.5 for their proper in-
stallation procedures.
3-2 TANDEM AXLE MODEL FRAME ASSEMBLY
WARNING
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY OR
DEATH, READ ALL SAFETY PRECAU-
TIONS AT THE FRONT OF THIS SEC-
TION BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY OF
THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURES.
IMPORTANT
SEE FIGURE 3-1 FOR PART NAMES.
3-2.1 Place both frame halves on stands about
36" high in an open, level area.
a. Use 3/4" x 2-1/2" cap screws and 3/4" lock-
ing nuts in the tube plates
b. Use 3/4" x 6-1/2" cap screws with locking
nuts in the mast plates.
c. Install bushing on rear top mast capscrew
and bushing with front leveler link on front top
capscrew.
IMPORTANT
LONG ARM OF LEVELER SHOULD BE DOWN
WITH GREASE ZERK FACING FORWARD. (SEE
FIGURE 3-8)
CAUTION
FRONT LEVELING LINKAGE MUST BE
INSTALLED ON FRONT MAST PLATE
BOLT OR DAMAGE WILL OCCUR DUR-
ING OPERATION.
d. Bolt the two halves together. Leave all bolts
loose, initially.
3-2.2 Level the frame halves.
3-2.3 Tighten all connecting bolts to the torques
listed in Table 2-1, “Standard Bolt
Torques”.
IMPORTANT
BE SURE TO TIGHTEN THE TOP AND BOTTOM
BOLTS EQUALLY.
3-2.4 Mark the spacing for shank mounts on the
tool bars. See Figures 2-1 through 2-6 for
their proper locations.
3-2.5 FRAME EXTENSIONS: If your SS7600
Soil Saver needs frame extensions to add
extra shanks:
a. Install the extensions by securing them to
the plates provided on the sides of the
frames. Use cap screws and locking nuts to
secure the plates.
b. Secure the braces on the long frame exten-
sions to the frame with U-bolts and locking
nuts.
