Abstract: A scraper having a frame with a first removable sidewall removably coupled to the frame, a second removable sidewall removably coupled to the frame, a rear bucket pivotally coupled to the frame and having a dump position and a carry position, the rear bucket comprising a first rear sidewall positioned on a first side of the rear bucket and a second rear sidewall positioned on a second side of the rear bucket. Wherein, the first removable sidewall is positioned adjacent to the first rear sidewall and the second removable sidewall is positioned adjacent to the second rear sidewall. Further wherein, as the rear bucket transitions between the carry position and the dump position, the first and second removable sidewalls move relative to the surface of the corresponding first and second rear sidewalls.

Abstract: Elevating scrapers are useful for loading material into a bowl and transporting the material to a location for dumping. When the elevator loads material into the bowl, a portion tends to slide forward between the side walls and the elevator and out of the bowl. The subject arrangement provides a blocking plate attached to the side wall which extends toward the elevator. The blocking plate blocks the reverse flow of material between the side wall and the elevator. This arrangement of components reduces the amount of time needed to load the material into the bowl.
