MAINTENANCE
Before operating your Rotary Cutter, make sure it is properly lubricated and thoroughly inspected. Only a
minimum of time and effort is required to regularly lubricate and maintain this machine to provide long life and
trouble free operation.
Always disengage the PTO before raising the Rotary Cutter for transporting or making
adjustments.
Lubrication (Figure Mnt-0014)
Do not let excess grease collect on or around parts, particularly when operating in sandy areas. The
illustrations show 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 an SAE multi-purpose, lithium-type grease for
all locations shown. Be sure to clean the fitting
thoroughly before using grease gun. Daily
lubrication of the driveline slip joint is necessary.
Failure to maintain proper lubrication will result in
damage to U-joints, gearbox, and/or driveshaft.
