Lubrication
Do not let excess grease collect on or around parts, particularly when operating in sandy areas. The
accompanying illustration shows lubrication points. The chart gives the frequency of lubrication in hours, based
on normal operating conditions. Severe or unusual conditions may require more frequent lubrication.
Use Multi-Purpose Gear Oil P/N 00786250 for all locations shown according to instructions. Be sure to clean
the fitting thoroughly before using grease gun. Daily lubrication of the wing driveline slip joint is necessary.
Failure to maintain proper lubrication will result in damage to U-joints, gearbox and/or drive shaft.
When attaching QD yoke to tractor PTO or gearbox shaft, it is important that the spring
activated locking pin or collar slides freely, and locking balls are seated in groove on splined
shaft. A loose yoke could slip off and result in personal injury or damage to cutter.
