16. TRACTOR, BOOM, AND ATTACHED HEAD STORAGE
Properly preparing and storing the unit 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:
Thoroughly clean all debris from boom and head to
prevent damage from rotting grass and standing
water.
Lubricate all grease points and fill oil levels
according to the maintenance lubrication schedule.
Tighten all bolts to the proper torque. Ensure all
pins and other hardware are in place.
Check the boom arm and head for worn and
damaged parts. Perform repairs and make
replacements so that the mower will be ready for
use at the start of the next season.
Store the unit in a clean and dry location.
Use spray touch-up enamel where necessary on bare metal surfaces to prevent rust and to maintain the
appearance of the mower.
