Lubrication and Maintenance

1. Raise tire clear of ground and remove wheel.

2. Remove double jam nuts and slide hub from spindle.

3. Remove bearings and cups and discard if bearings are being replaced. Clean hub and dry. Remove bearings

only and not cups if repacking.

4. Press in new bearing cups with thickest edge facing in. (Bearing replacement procedure only.)

5. Pack bearings with heavy duty wheel bearing grease thoroughly forcing grease between roller cone and bearing

cage. Fill space between bearing cups and hub with grease.

6. Place inner bearing in place.

7. Clean spindle and install hub.

8. Install outer bearing and jam nut. Tighten jam nut while rotating hub until there is some drag. This ensures all

bearing surfaces are in contact. Back off jam nut ¼ turn or until there is only slight drag when rotating hub. Install

second jam nut to lock against first.

9. Install wheel on hub. Tighten hardware evenly.

Row marker transport stands must be correctly adjusted to
allow marker cushion cylinders to function properly.

1. Raise markers to transport position.

2. Loosen mounting hardware to allow transport

stands to drop down or remove transport stands.

3. With tractor engine shutoff, release hydraulic

pressure on marker cylinders.

4. Locate transport stands so marker arm rests lightly

on transport stand. When transport stands are

correctly adjusted pin at rod end of cylinder should

be loose enough to rotate and move back and forth

in mounting slot.
