2.Lubricate all mower grease points and fill gearbox oil level as detailed in the maintenance section.
3.Tighten all bolts and pins to the recommended torque.
4.Check the mower for worn and damaged parts. Perform repairs and make replacements immediately so that the mower will be ready for use at the start of the next season.
5.Store the mower in a clean, dry place with the mower housing resting securely on blocks or at ground level.
6.Keep the driveline yoke from sitting in water, dirt and other contaminants.
7.Use spray
mower.
It is critical that the driveline clutch slip when an obstacle or heavy load is encountered to avoid mower and/or tractor damage. If the mower sits outside for an extended period of time or is exposed to rain and/or humid air, the clutch lining plates must be inspected to ensure they are not frozen together from rust or corrosion. If the mower has been exposed to such conditions, at the start of each mowing season, and any time it is suspected that the slip clutch plates may be frozen together, readjust the slip clutch as detailed in Clutch Maintenance section of this
