Adjustable Scraper Bracket for Drills PLANTING EQUIPMENT Accessories 13-6-27 An adjustable bracket for drill scrapers lets you lower the scraper down between the disc blades as the discs wear, eliminating problems with scrapers that wear down into hooks over the top of discs, according to Tough-T Mfg., Glenfield, N. Dak.
"It makes scrapers wear longer and makes changing scrapers easier," says Jerry Tufte, manufacturer. "New scrapers work fine at first, but as the discs wear, the scraper extends over the edge and can wear down and lock the discs. Locked discs push residue instead of slicing through it and cause uneven planting. By loosening a bolt in the slot, you can adjust the scraper downward as the discs wear."
The bracket was invented by farmer Walter Hoyt, of Pekin, N. Dak., to solve troubles he had with the scrapers on his drill. The bracket comes in two parts which attach to the drill shoe with three bolts. It fits Deere, IH, and some other drill models. Sells for $5.85.
