ATTENTION
Before doing any service work, observe the following safety rules:
1. Remove the ignition key from the operating vehicle and allow all movements to stop
before leaving the operator’s position and starting any maintenance activities.
2. Allow all movements to stop before leaving the operator’s position to lubricate or
clean the machine.
3. Before working on or underneath the brush mower, place blocks on both sides of
the operating vehicle tires or treads and under each end of the brush mower to pre-
vent accidental lowering of the machine.
Lubrication
1. GREASE DAILY: Two cutter drum bearings. The grease fitting for the bearing on
the motor side of the attachment is mounted on the side of the motor housing.
2. Inspect rubber isolation disk. This disk will last over 1000 hours but should be in-
spected daily and replaced whenever the cutter drum is removed.
3. When greasing, apply 6-8 full pumps every eight hours of operation. Apply 6-8 full
pumps every four hours if running in severe conditions, apply 6-8 full pumps every
three hours in wet, boggy conditions.
CAUTION
Over-greasing seals and bearings can cause damage. If an excessive amount of
grease is visible, too much grease has been applied.
