DAILY INSPECTION
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
• Check all hydraulic fittings, connections and
hoses for signs of leaks, damage or wear.
• Hoses must be routed clear of any moving
parts, and secured to prevent ‘rubbing’ to
prevent damage.
• Keep all hydraulic connections clean.
Refer to pages 16 to 19 for the hydraulic system
diagrams and operation.
GUARDS AND DECALS
Before starting mowing operations :
• Check that all safety Guards are in place and
not damaged.
• Check that all Safety/Warning Decals are in
place, are clean and readable.
WARNING
Do not operate the machine if any Safety Guards or
Safety/Warning Decals are missing or damaged.
To do so may result in serious personal injury.
INITIAL OPERATION CHECK
After the first 10 hours of operation :
• Check all fasteners for tightness.
• Check the Main Wheel Retainer Bolts.
Remove the lower bearing Blocks. Check that
the Bearing Retainer Washers are tightly
locked by the Retainer Bolts. (Refer to illustra-
tions on pages 34 and 35). If the washer is
loose, remove the Retainer Bolt and apply
‘Loctite 242’ to the threads and refit the bolt and
washer. Torque the Retainer Bolt to 76 in/lb.
Re-assemble the Lower bearing Blocks.
IMPORTANT
With the Lower Bearing Blocks removed check also that
the inner races of the bearings show no signs of turning
on the axle shaft.
This check should be done at regular service
intervals.
For main axles with Taper Roller Bearings refer to
pages 33 and 34.
