MAINTENANCE
Tongue
The Tongue Hitch Pins attach the Tongue to the Center Section and should be checked for signs of wear or cracking. Replace as needed. The Drawbar 1” bolt fastens the cutter to the tractor Drawbar. When the cutter is unhitched and this 1” bolt is removed, examine for signs of cracking wear. Replace the Drawbar 1” bolt at first signs of either problem. Attach Safety Chain securely to cutter and tractor.
CENTER & WING GEARBOXES
The Gearboxes have been filled with lubricant to the proper level prior to shipment. However, you should check the oil level using dipstick before operating, and frequently thereafter.
The gearbox should not require additional lubricant unless the box is cracked or a seal is leaking. It is recommended that the dipstick plug be checked after every 8 to 10 hours of operation and oil added until it reaches proper level. Dipstick Filler Plugs are located on top of all Gearboxes.
