Before disconnecting the machine from the tractor,
use the hydraulic lever to unfold and lower the
machine completely, apply the brake and shut off
the tractor. Relieve hydraulic pressure by moving
the control levers back and forth several times.
Dismount from the tractor and place the parking
stand in the vertical position. Turn the crank to raise
the machine from the drawbar so that the hitch pin
may be removed from the tractor. Disconnect the
quick-release coupling. Disconnect the driveline
and rest on the driveline holder. The tractor can
now be moved away.

12. HAY TEDDER STORAGE
Properly preparing and storing the hay tedder at the end of the season is critical to maintaining its appearance
and to help ensure years of dependable service. The following are suggested storage procedures:
•
Thoroughly clean all debris off the implement to
prevent damage from decaying grass.
• Lubricate all grease points and fill gearbox oil
levels as detailed in the maintenance section.
• Tighten all bolts and pins to the recommended
torque.
• Check worn and damaged parts. Perform
repairs and make replacements immediately so
that the implement will be ready for use at the
start of the next season.
• Store the hay tedder in a clean, dry place with
the housing resting securely on blocks or at
ground level.
• Use spray touch-up enamel where necessary to
prevent rust and maintain the appearance of
the hay tedder.
Store tedder with the wings lowered and the main
transport wheels lowered.
