ROTARY HEAD INSPECTION

Inspect blades and blade bolts for looseness and excessive wear. Rotate to 90° to make for checking easier. Replace damaged, worn, and missing blades as complete sets to maintain rotary balance.

Ensure carrier hub nuts are tightened with the cotter pin inserted and spread.

Ensure rubber deflectors are in position and not damaged. Replace worn, broken, and missing sections immediately.

Ensure hydraulic lines are properly connected to the hydraulic motor. Check for hydraulic leaks along hoses and fittings. DO NOT use your hands to check for oil leaks. Use a piece of heavy paper or cardboard to check for hydraulic oil leaks.

Inspect the condition of deck skid shoes and hardware. OPS-B- 0025

Do not put hands or feet under mower decks. Blade Contact can result in serious injury or even death. Stay away until all motion has stopped and the decks are securely blocked up. (SGM-09)
