Skid Shoe Maintenance
!
CAUTION
Excessive wear on skid shoes may cause inadequate operation
of cutter and create a safety hazard.
Two skid shoes are mounted on the center section and
one skid shoe mounted on each wing section. Check all
skid shoes for wear and replace if necessary. Order only
genuine Land Pride parts from your local Land Pride
dealer.
Center Skid Shoes
Refer to Figure 5-9:
Replace center skid shoes as follows:
1. Remove 1/2"-13 hex whiz nuts (#4), 1/2" -13 x 1 1/4"
GR5 carriage bolts (#3), and right-hand center skid
shoe (#1) from the center deck frame (#2) as shown.
2. Attach new skid shoe (#1) to cutter with existing
1/2" hex bolts (#3), and secure with existing 1/2" hex
whiz nuts (#4). Tighten bolts to the correct torque.
3. Repeat steps 1 & 2 for left-hand center skid shoe.

Replace wing skid shoes as follows:
1. Remove 3/8" hex whiz nuts (#3), 3/8" plow bolts (#2),
and left-hand skid shoe (#1) as shown.

Spindle Gearbox Shaft Guard
Refer to Figure 1-11:
1. To remove shaft guard (#1) at the spindle gearbox,
unsnap latches (#2) on both sides of guard (#1) and
slide shaft guard over driveline to expose driveline
yoke. Do not unhook safety chain (#3).
2. When servicing of driveline yoke is completed, return
shaft guard to its original position and secure with
latches (#2).
3. Check safety chain (#3). Make sure it is latched to
shaft guard mounting plate (#4) and shaft guard (#1).
IMPORTANT: Excessive wear on skid shoes can
weaken cutter side panels and cause damage that
will require extensive repairs. Always replace skid
shoes at the first sign of wearing thin.
