Maintenance

Proper servicing and adjustment is the key to the long life of any implement. With careful and systematic inspection, you can avoid costly maintenance, time and repair.

After using your Powered Rake for several hours, check all bolts to be sure they are tight.

Replace any worn, damaged or illegible safety labels by obtaining new labels from your Land Pride Dealer.

!CAUTION

BEFORE any maintenance is performed, lower the Powered Rake to the ground, stop tractor engine and remove ignition key. DO NOT attempt to make maintenance adjustments while tractor is running.

Slip Clutch Maintenance

Slip clutches should be “run-in” prior to initial operation and after long periods of inactivity. To prevent driveline and gearbox damage, repeat “Run-In” instructions at the beginning of each season and when moisture and/or condensation seizes the inner friction disks.

Your Powered Rake will have one of two types of slip clutches. One is adjustable with hex socket bolts and the other is adjustable with hex head bolts. Refer to Figure 4-1 and Figure 4-2 to determine which slip clutch your Powered Rake has. Follow run-in and assembly instructions for your particular slip below.

Slip Clutch with Hex Socket Bolts

If your clutch has enclosed friction disks and is tensioned with hex socket bolts as shown in Figure 4-1, follow clutch run-in and assembly instructions below.

If your clutch has exposed friction disks and is tensioned with hex head bolts as shown in Figure 4-2, skip to “Slip Clutch with Hex Head Bolts” on page 17.
