MAN0152 (Rev. 11/17/2006)
OWNER SERVICE
The information in this section is written for operators
who possess basic mechanical skills. If you need help,
your dealer has trained service technicians available.
For your protection, read and follow the safety informa-
tion in this manual.
NEVER GO UNDERNEATH EQUIPMENT. Never
place any part of the body underneath equipment
or between moveable parts even when the engine
has been turned off. Hydraulic system leak-down,
hydraulic system failures, mechanical failures, or
movement of control levers can cause equipment
to drop or rotate unexpectedly and cause severe
injury or death.
• Service work does not require going under-
neath.
• Read Operator's Manual for service instruc-
tions or have service performed by a qualified
dealer.
Keep all persons away from operator control
area while performing adjustments, service, or
maintenance.
Before dismounting power unit or performing
any service or maintenance, follow these steps:
disengage power to equipment, lower the 3-point
hitch and all raised components to the ground,
operate valve levers to release any hydraulic pres-
sure, set parking brake, stop engine, remove key,
and unfasten seat belt.
Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing
to avoid getting caught in moving parts. Wear
sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective
equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head;
and respirator or filter mask where appropriate.
LUBRICATION INFORMATION
1. Lubricate grease fittings (A, Figure 4), every 8
hours of operation.
2. Clean fittings prior to lubrication. Do not let
excessive grease build up around lubrication
points.
NOTE: One pump of a good grade multi-purpose
grease should be sufficient in most cases. Harsh or dry
conditions may require more frequent lubrication.
