3.21 Adjusting scrapers
The scrapers remove dirt adhering to the surfaces of the drums/tyres.
For transport driving, move the scrapers away from the drums/tyres. This
prevents premature wear.
NOTE
Rinse out dirt embedded between drums/tyres and scrapers
with a water jet. Remove any extremely stubborn dirt with a
spatula or similar tool.
CAUTION
Spring mechanism under tension!
Injury when caught and pinched.
■
Do not put your hands or fingers between scraper and roller drum/
tyre when applying or lifting off the scrapers.
