Tractor Maintenance
One of the most important things you can do to prevent
hydraulic system problemsis to ensurethat your tractor's
reservoir remains free of dirt and contamination.
Use a clean cloth to wipe the hose ends before attaching
them to your tractor. Replace the filter element for your
tractor’s hydraulic system at the prescribed intervals.
These simple maintenances will go a long way toprevent
the occurrence of cartridge valve and hydraulic cylinder
problems on the Rotary Cutter.
Storage Instructions
It is good practice to clean off any dirt or grease that may
have accumulated on the cutter and moving parts at the
end of the working season and when thecutter will not be
used for a long time.
!
DANGER!
Always disconnect main driveline from tractor PTO and secure
cutter deck in the up position with solid supports before
servicing the underside of the cutter.
1. Clean the cutter as necessary.
2. Check the blades for wear and replace if necessary,
see “Service Cutting Blades”, Page 28.
3. Inspect the cutter for loose, damaged or worn parts
and adjust or replace as needed.
