2.6. MAINTENANCE SAFETY

• Before applying pressure to a hydraulic system, make sure all components

are secure, hoses are in good condition, and couplings are tightly connected
and undamaged.

• Relieve pressure from hydraulic circuit before servicing or disconnecting from

tractor.

• Place stands or blocks under the frame before working beneath the machine.
• After maintenance is complete, replace and secure all safety guards and

safety devices, and if applicable, service doors and cleanout covers.

• Remove all tools and unused parts from machine before operation.
• Remove buildup of grease, oil, and debris.
• Inspect all parts. Ensure parts are in good condition and installed properly.

Use only genuine Wheatheart replacement parts or equivalent. Replacement

parts must meet ASAE standards or serious injury may result. Use of

unauthorized parts will void the warranty. If in doubt, contact Wheatheart or your

Wheatheart dealer.

before disconnecting or working on hydraulic system.
