MAINTENANCE
Weld Inspection
The deck and structural members of the
Falcon are welded using modern up-to-date
equipment. Operating over rough terrain can
induce severe stress through out the deck and
structural members. All welds should be
inspected for any signs of cracks or metal
separation. If any welds show these signs they
should be repaired at once. Any weld that is
not repaired can develop into a severe
problem that may bend or deform structural
members, and cause severe mower damage.
See Image Mnt-R-0242.
Be certain to clamp or securely support the Spindle Housing and sub-assemblies to prevent
injuries to hands and feet due to inadvertent dropping or falling over.
Always wear safety glasses and gloves to prevent eye and hand injury when chiselling or
hammering on metal components. Hardened metal will chip unexpectedly.
An assembled spindle housing is quite heavy. Use a hoist or get help to handle them safely.
Lift carefully and properly using your legs to lift - NOT YOUR BACK.
