Lubrication and Maintenance

PREPARATION FOR STORAGE

Store machine in a dry sheltered area.

Remove all trash that may be wrapped on shafts and remove dirt that can draw moisture.

Remove auger inspection cover at front of cart and dump door on underside of grain tank at rear of cart. Clean out all
accumulated grain and debris from auger chamber.

Wash machine inside and out.

Lubricate machine at all lubrication points.

If possible, remove weight from all tires, particularly if unit is stored outdoors.

Repaint any areas where paint has been removed. This is particularly important in the inside of grain tank. Rust in this
area will shorten cart life and prevent grain from smoothly sliding to bottom of tank.

Inspect machine for parts in need of replacement and order during “off” season.

Coat exposed surface of all cylinder piston rods with grease or rust preventative spray.
