Maintenance and Lubrication
Maintenance
Proper servicing and maintenance is the key to long
implement life. With careful and systematic inspection,
you can avoid costly maintenance, downtime and repair.
Always turn off and remove the tractor key before making
any adjustments or performing any maintenance.
Crushing Hazard:
Always have frame sufficiently blocked up when working on,
and particularly under implement. You may be severely injured
or killed by being crushed under a falling implement.
After using drill for several hours, check all bolts to be
sure they are tight.
1. Securely block drill before working on it.
2. Adjust idlers to remove excess slack (page 31).
3. Lubricate areas listed under “Lubrication and
Scheduled Maintenance” on page 32.
4. Clean any fittings that do not take grease.
5. Inflate tires as specified on “Tire Pressures” on
page 40.
6. Replace any worn, damaged or illegible safety
decals. Order new decals from your Great Plains
dealer. See “Safety Decals” on page 5.
