The information in this section is written for oper-
ators who possess basic mechanical skills. If you
need help, your dealer has trained service techni-
cians available. For your protection, read and
follow the safety information in this manual.
• NEVER GO UNDERNEATH EQUIPMENT.
Never place any part of the body underneath
equipment or between moveable parts even
when the engine has been turned off. Hydraulic
system leak down, hydraulic system failures,
mechanical failures, or movement of control
levers can cause equipment to drop or rotate
unexpectedly and cause severe injury or death.
• Service work does not require going under
-
neath.
• Read Manual for service instructions or have
service performed by a qualified dealer.
• Keep all persons away from operator control
area while performing adjustments, service, or
maintenance.
• Before dismounting power unit or performing
any service or maintenance, follow these steps:
disengage power to equipment, lower the 3 point
hitch and all raised components to the ground,
operate valve levers to release any hydraulic
pressure, set parking brake, stop engine, remove
key, and unfasten seat belt.
• Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing
to avoid entanglement in moving parts. Wear
sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective
equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and
head.
BLOCKING UP BOX BLADE
NOTE: To service the box blade when attached
to the tractor, it must be blocked up off the
ground.
1. Place two 4" x 4" blocks under each side frame
of the box blade as shown in Figure 4.
2. Lower the box blade to rest securely on the
blocks.
3. Do not block the machine any higher than
needed for removing the shanks or cutting edge.
Storage
When storing your box blade make sure the unit
is placed on level ground and that the box blade
is properly chocked by bracing with 4” x 4” blocks
on the front and rear side of each end of the box
blade.
