Operator’s Responsibilities  
wagon to carry things.  
Hazard control and accident prevention are dependent  
upon the awareness, concern, prudence and proper  
training involved in the operation, transport, storage, and  
maintenance of the Soil Pulverizer. Therefore, it is  
absolutely essential that no one operates the Soil  
Pulverizer without first having read, fully understood and  
become totally familiar with the Operator’s Manual. Make

below.  
Never use the Soil Pulverizer to pull or tow other  
equipment or objects.  
Make sure all safety labels are in their proper location  
and in good condition before operation.  
Never work under the Soil Pulverizer without properly  
blocking pulverizer up.  
Before working the soil contact your local utility  
services, so that they may mark location of any under  
ground utility services in the area. Be sure to ask how  
close you can work to the marks or flags they  
positioned.  
Operating Checklist

!
DANGER!  
Tractor hook-up to equipment is dangerous and can result in  
serious injury or death. Do not allow anyone to stand between  
the Soil Pulverizer and tractor during hook-up operations. Do  
not operate hydraulic 3-point lift controls while someone is  
directly behind the tractor or near the Soil Pulverizer.  
Read and make all required adjustments. Be sure all

1. Slowly back tractor up to the Soil Pulverizer and use  
tractor’s 3-point hydraulic control to align the lower  
hitch link holes with the clevis lug holes on the Soil  
Pulverizer.  
Check Soil Pulverizer initially and periodically for loose  
bolts and pins. Refer to “Torque Values Chart”.  
2. Engage tractor park brake, shut tractor engine off  
and remove key before dismounting from tractor.

WARNING!  
Speeds in excess of 5 MPH can damage frame & or shanks  
7. Manually adjust the length of the top-link to level the  
Soil Pulverizer from front to rear.  
IMPORTANT: Do Not turn tractor with pulverizer  
shanks in the ground. Damage to shanks will occur.  
Transporting  
Before putting your Land Pride Pulverizer into service  
you must thoroughly review the Operator’s Manual. Once  
you have read the Operator’s Manual and properly  
mounted the pulverizer on your tractor, you should be  
ready to head for the work site. You should have already  
removed any sizeable sticks, rocks, or extraneous debris  
from this area. Do not attempt to rip up concrete, black  
top, asphalt, or large rocks.  
!
CAUTION!  
When traveling on public roads at night or during the day, use  
accessory lights and devices for adequate warning to  
operators of other vehicles. Comply with all federal, state, and  
local laws.  
1. Be sure to reduce tractor ground speed when  
turning; and leave enough clearance so the Soil  
Pulverizer does not contact obstacles such as  
buildings, trees, or fences.  
With tractor stopped, lower 3-point of tractor down until  
all weight is off the tractor. Pull ahead slowly to get the  
shanks to start digging. Scarifying and pulverizing action  
will commence as soon as the rear roller touches the  
ground and begins to roll. Increase ground speed once  
shanks and roller have entered the ground. Do not  
exceed 5 MPH and make straight passes only. When you  
reach the end of a pass, raise tractor’s 3-point up before  
turning. Trying to turn with unit in the ground will damage  
the scarifier shanks and can damage the pulverizer  
roller.  
2. Select a safe ground travel speed when transporting  
from one area to another.  
3. When traveling on roadways, transport in such a way  
that faster moving vehicles may pass you safely.  
4. When traveling over rough or hilly terrain, shift tractor  
to a lower gear.  
Adding Weight  
If ground conditions are extremely hard and the scarifier  
shanks are not achieving adequate penetration, you may  
need to add additional weight to the top frame.  
Up to 400 lbs can be added to this area.  
Up to 400 lbs of weight may be applied by installing  
bricks or blocks in frame for additional weight if required  
by ground conditions.  
If the pulverizing roller is bouncing and not staying in  
uniform contact with the ground, the down pressure of  
the roller can be adjusted by the spring tensioners  
located at both ends of the pulverizer.  
If you are getting a build-up on the rear roller, pulverizing  
operations should be discontinued until the ground is dry  
enough to work. If the ground needs more cultivation  
than can be accomplished in one pass, continue to make  
additional passes until the desired finish is achieved.  
Owners of the Model 30 Series Land Pride Pulverizers  
can attach an additional optional rear mounted pulverizer  
roller to achieve a more professional finish in less time.  
Once you are finished using your pulverizer, park it on a  
dry and level surface, clean it, and make it ready for the  
next use. With a little practice you will be able to achieve  
professional results from your Land Pride Pulverizer.

prevent rust. Ask your Land Pride dealer for aerosol  
touch-up paint. They are also available in touch-up  
bottles with brush, quarts, and gallon sizes by adding  
TU, QT, or GL to the end of the aerosol part number.  
Check all bolts after using unit for several hours to be sure  
they are tight. Replace any worn, damaged, or illegible  
safety labels by obtaining new labels from your Land  
Pride Dealer.  
The parts on your Soil Pulverizer have been specially
