ROUTINE MAINTENANCE


WARNING: When Servicing The Track System, Be Certain All Power To Grain Cart Is Shut Off.

Repack the wheel bearings at least once a year. Use Bearing Gard MK1 or equivalent lubricant. Also
check the seal for wear and replace if necessary.

Check the track system periodically for cracks in welds and for other structural damage. Have cracked
welds fixed immediately. Failure to do so could result in extensive damage to the track system and grain
cart and greatly reduce the life of the equipment.

Lubricate the track system according to the Lubrication Service Schedule.

Make sure that all guards and shields are in place before operating the track system.

Check the pressure in the air spring after every 100 hours of operation and at the beginning of each
season. The correct air pressure is 100 psi.

Check the wheel hubs and make sure the nuts are torqued to 350 ft. lbs. Check the hub nuts after
the first hour of operation, then every 10 hours of operation for the first 40 hours of use.
These
nuts must be kept tight at all times. Wheels that are improperly installed and maintained, resulting in
failure, will nullify the warranty and shift the burden of liability to the owner/operator of the equipment.
