MAINTENANCE

Tongue

The Tongue Hitch Pins attach the Tongue to the Center Section and should be checked for signs of wear or

cracking. Replace as needed. The Drawbar 1” bolt fastens the cutter to the tractor Drawbar. When the cutter is

unhitched and this 1” bolt is removed, examine for signs of cracking wear. Replace the Drawbar 1” bolt at first

signs of either problem. Attach Safety Chain securely to cutter and tractor.

CENTER & WING GEARBOXES

The Gearboxes have been filled with lubricant to the proper level prior to shipment. However, you should check

the oil level using dipstick before operating, and frequently thereafter.

The gearbox should not require additional lubricant

unless the box is cracked or a seal is leaking. It is

recommended that the dipstick plug be checked

after every 8 to 10 hours of operation and oil added

until it reaches proper level. Dipstick Filler Plugs are

located on top of all Gearboxes. Mnt-R-0004.
