Long Term Storage
Clean, inspect, service, and make necessary repairs to
the Powered Rake when parking it for long periods and
when parking it at the end of a working season. This will
help ensure that the rake is ready for field use the next
time you hook-up to it.
!
DANGER
Always disconnect driveline from tractor PTO and secure rake
in the up position with solid supports before servicing
underside of the rake.
1. Clean off any dirt and grease that may have
accumulated on the rake and moving parts. Scrape
off compacted dirt from the roller and then wash
surface thoroughly with a garden hose.
2. Check roller studs for wear and replace if necessary.
3. Inspect the Powered Rake for parts out of
adjustment, loose, damaged, or worn.
•
Make required adjustments.
•
Tighten all loose hardware.
•
Replace damaged and worn parts as needed.
4. Repaint parts where paint is worn or scratched to
prevent rust. Ask your dealer for Land Pride aerosol
touch-up paint. They are also available in touch-up
bottles with brush, quarts, and gallon sizes by adding
TU, QT, or GL to the end of the aerosol part number.
5. Replace all damaged or missing decals.
6. Lubricate as noted in “Lubrication Points” starting
on
page 20.
7. Apply a light coat of oil or grease may be applied to
the roller and to any exposed hydraulic cylinder rods
to minimize oxidation.
8. Drain gearbox and chain case oil. Drain oil in
gearbox by removing bottom drain plug. Drain oil in
chain case by removing large cover (#1) Figure 3-4.
Be sure to refill gearbox and chain case at this time.
See “Drive Chain” and “Gearbox” on page 21.
9. Store Powered Rake on a level surface in a clean, dry
place. Inside storage will reduce maintenance and
make for a longer rake life.
