12. TRACTOR, BOOM, AND ATTACHED HEAD STORAGE
Properly preparing and storing the unit 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 from boom and
head to prevent damage from rotting grass and
standing water.
•
Lubricate all grease points and fill oil levels
according to the maintenance lubrication
schedule.
•
Tighten all bolts to the proper torque. Ensure
all pins and other hardware are in place.
•
Check the boom arm and head for worn and
damaged parts. Perform repairs and make
replacements so that the mower will be ready
for use at the start of the next season.
•
Store the unit in a clean and dry location.
•
Use spray touch-up enamel where necessary
on bare metal surfaces to prevent rust and to
maintain the appearance of the mower.
