OPERATION

11. BLADE STORAGE

Properly preparing and storing the blade at the end of the season is critical to maintaining its appearance and to help ensure years of dependable service. The following are suggested storage procedures:

•Thoroughly clean all debris off the blade to prevent damage from rotting grass and standing water.

•Lubricate all blade grease points and fill gearbox oil levels as detailed in the maintenance section.

•Tighten all bolts and pins to the recommended torque.

•Check the blade for worn and damaged parts. Perform repairs and make replacements immediately so that the blade will be ready for use at the start of the next season.

•Store the blade in a clean, dry place with the blade resting securely on blocks or at ground level.

•Use spray touch-up enamel where necessary to prevent rust and maintain the appearance of the blade. OPS-0053_D

Never allow children to play on or around Tractor or Implement. Children can slip or fall off the Equipment and be injured or killed. Children can cause the Implement to shift or fall crushing themselves or others.

12. TRANSPORTING THE TRACTOR AND IMPLEMENT

Inherent hazards of operating the tractor and implement and the possibility of accidents are not left behind when you finish working in an area. Therefore, the operator must employ good judgement and safe operation practices when transporting the tractor and implement between locations. By using good judgement and following safe transport procedures, the possibility of accidents while moving between locations can be substantially minimized. OPS-U- 0017

Never allow children or other persons to ride on the Tractor or Implement.

Falling off can result in serious injury or death.

When transporting, only raise the blade enough to clear ground obstacles to prevent tipping, especially when traveling through rough terrain.
