Routine Maintenance, B R I C Ation Information

O W N E R S E RVICE

The information in this section is written for operators who possess basic mechanical skills. Should you need help, your dealer has trained service technicians available. For your protection, read and follow all safety information in this manual.

W ARNING!

▲Lower cutter to ground or block securely, turn tractor engine off, remove key and disconnect cutter driveline from tractor PTO before perform- ing any service or maintenance.

▲Before working underneath, raise 3-pt. hitch to highest position and block cutter securely. Hydraulic system leakdown and failure of mechanical or hydraulic system can cause equip- ment to drop.

▲Keep all persons away from operator control area while performing adjustments, service or mainte- nance.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

DAILY CHECKS:

1.Check that all bolts, nuts, and screws are tight. Checking the bolts and nuts on the blade beam assembly is particularly important.

2.Check daily the level of the gearbox oil and top up to the correct level. Check for gearbox oil leaks. It should be noted that no warranty claim can be submitted on a gearbox that has run dry. It is essential that the gearbox is kept correctly filled with gearbox oil.

3.Grease the PTO shaft daily.

4.Check the wear on the blades. Sharpen them routinely with an angle grinder or replace when worn down too far. You should keep at least two sets of blades, bolts, and nuts as spares for your cutter.

AT THE END OF YOUR CUTTING SEASON:

1.Drain and change the oil in your gearbox.

2.Check and replace, where necessary, blades, bolts, nuts, or bushings, on the machine.

3.Clean machine and touch up any rust spots that may have appeared.

4.Replace any safety signs if damaged.

5.Store cutter in clean, dry location.

L U B R I C ATION INFORMATION

Figure 6 shows the lubrication points. The accompany- ing chart gives the frequency of lubrication in operating hours, based on normal conditions. Severe or unusual conditions may require more frequent lubrication.

Do not let excess grease collect on or around parts, particularly when operating in sandy areas.

Use an SAE 90W gear lube in gearbox.

Use a lithium grease of NO. 2 consistency with a MOLY (molybdenum disulfide) additive for all locations. Be sure to clean fittings thoroughly before attaching grease gun. When applied according to the lubrication chart, one good pump of most guns is sufficient. Do not over grease.
