11. MOWER STORAGE

Properly preparing and storing the mower at the end of the season is critical to maintaining its appearance and
to help ensure years of dependable service. The following are suggested storage procedures:
1. Thoroughly clean all debris off the mower to

prevent damage from rotting grass and
standing water.

2. Lubricate all mower grease points and fill

spindle oil level as detailed in the
maintenance section.

3. Tighten all bolts and pins to the

recommended torque.

4. Check the mower for worn and damaged

parts. Perform repairs and make
replacements immediately so that the mower
will be ready for use at the start of the next
season.

5. Store the mower in a clean, dry place with the

mower housing resting securely on blocks or
at ground level.

6. Keep the hydraulic hose ends from sitting in

water, dirt and other contaminants. Connect
the mower’s hydraulic lines together to
prevent dirt and other contamination from
entering the hydraulic system.

7. Use spray touch-up enamel where necessary

to prevent rust and to maintain the
appearance of the mower.

Never allow children to play on or around Power Unit or Implement. Children can slip or fall
off the Equipment and be injured or killed. Children can cause the Implement to shift or fall

crushing themselves or others.

12. TRANSPORTING THE SKID STEER AND MOWER

Inherent dangers of operating the skid steer and mower and the possibility of accidents are not left behind
when you finish mowing an area. One must also use good judgement and safe operation practices when
transporting the skid steer and mower between locations. By using good judgement and following safe
transport procedures, the possibility of accidents while moving between locations can be substantially
minimized. OPS-SS-0032
