ROUTINE
MAINTENANCE
Lower the attachment to rest flat on the ground, shut down the engine, relieve the
hydraulic pressure to the attachment, set the park brake, and wait for all motion to stop before leaving
the operator’s seat to perform service of any kind.
It is the operator’s responsibility to make daily inspections of the loader and attachment for damage, loose bolts,
fluid leaks, or anything else that could cause a potential service or safety problem. Preventive maintenance is
the easiest and least expensive type of maintenance.
IMPORTANT:
Bolts can loosen after initial usage. After the first hour of operation check all bolts.
Scarifying Teeth
Inspect the scarifying teeth before each use. If the
teeth get worn to the point of replacement, the teeth
may be replaced by either welding new teeth onto the
tooth shanks, or by replacing the tooth mount.
Tooth Mount Removal
NOTE:
It is recommended to perform this tack with
two persons and to use either a hoist or loader to
move the attachment.
1. Position the attachment flat on the ground, and
make sure the attachment hydraulic couplers are
disconnected from the loader.
2. Loosen the cylinder mounting bolts and remove
the cylinder. Make sure the cylinder is secured
out of the way.
3. Loosen the bolts securing the tooth mount support
plates and remove the two plates.
4. Loosen the bolts securing the tooth mount pins
and remove the two pins.
