Abstract
A moldboard rail cleaner for removing debris from a rail of a work machine having a tilt frame housing defining a first cavity. The work machine has a wear insert positioned within the first cavity and adapted to slide along the rail as the rail moves along a rail axis. Further, a sub-housing may be coupled to the tilt frame housing and define a second cavity. Finally, a wiper is disposed at least partially within the second cavity, the sub-housing configured to bias the wiper into contact with the rail.
