Always wanted to play around with a Tumblebug scraper, and picked one up locally, for $50.
Kind of perplexed as to how the hitch clevis setup is supposed to work. It has a vertical slot, allowing the hitch to move up/down about 10", and a trip lever to catch it, so that the hitch is in the lowest position.
Played around a few hours with it, and can't get it to cut. The blade doesn't want to contact the ground, it just slides along with the cutting surface an inch or two above the surface. If the pan would rotate forward, against the trip stops, it would cut, but I just can't get it to roll forward on its own.
Any thoughts?
