And some others probably too if you poke around that site. The tub is raised and
lowered using the vertical cylinders just behind the front wheels. Larger
scrapers generally have 2 engines these days, one at each end. And as Mark said,
most are generally engineered so as they can also be pushed by other equipment,
including other scrapers, very helpful especially in slippery conditions, as a
tracked vehicle pushing can get much more grip than a wheeled tractor.
Unfortunately I don't know of any online diagrams, but it may be worth
contacting a John Deere agent for datasheets and information. I've found they're
usually happy to provide any info they have.
