•Do not perform adjustments or repairs with the engine running
•Always lower raised equipment to the ground or securely support it to prevent
unintentional movement

FLOAT SETUP INSTRUCTIONS
The ROTO-RAKE can be used in a float condition that will allow it to follow minor ground
contours instead of gouging the terrain with a rigid connection. With the ratchet set so that the
Roto Rake is horizontal on level ground, the operator can engage the Float feature.
FLOAT SETUP OF ROTO-RAKE
•Remove the locking hairpin from the pin holding the tilt adjuster end in the hole under the
slot and pull it out.
•Raise the tilt adjuster end until the clevis hole lines up with the slot and insert the pin.
•Secure the pin in the slot with the hairpin.
•The float position allows the Roto-Rake to tilt and follow minor variations in the contours
of the ground.
•The float position allows 7” of up and down movement as the Roto Rake travels across
uneven ground.
•The Wheel Attachment may be left either engaged or disengaged at the discretion of the
operator.
