PRE-OPERATION INSPECTION AND SERVICE
Before each use, a pre-operation inspection and service of the implement and tractor must be performed. This includes
routine maintenance and scheduled lubrication, inspecting that all safety devices are equipped and functional, and
performing needed repairs. DO NOT operate the unit if the pre-operation inspection reveals any condition affecting
safe operation. Perform repairs and replacement of damaged and missing parts as soon as noticed. By performing a
thorough pre-operation inspection and service, valuable down time and repair cost can be avoided. OPS-U-0029
Always disconnect the main PTO Driveline from the Tractor before performing service on the Im-
plement. Never work on the Implement with the tractor PTO driveline connected and running.
Rotating Parts, Blades or Drivelines could turn without warning and cause immediate entangle-
ment, injury or death. (S3PT-11)
Periodically inspect all moving parts for wear and replace when necessary with authorized service
parts. Look for loose fasteners, worn or broken parts, and leaky or loose fittings. Make sure all
pins have cotter pins and washers. Serious injury may occur from not maintaining this machine
in good working order. (SG-21)
