7 - MAINTENANCE
End of season service
When the season is over, prepare the implement for the
storage immediately.
To prepare the implement for winter storage:
1. Clean the implement thoroughly. Dust and dirt absorb
moisture and moisture increases the formation of rust.
2. Store the implement in a dry place, protected against
wind and weather in the best possible way.
3. Grease all grease fittings after you clean the imple-
ment, according to the “Maintenance chart”.
4. Check the implement for damaged parts, loose screw-
joints, leakage, wear and other defects carefully before
the storage. If there is any damage, it may be forgotten
during the storage and result in problems the following
season. Note down the necessary parts you will need
before the next season and order the spare parts.
5. Dismount the Power Take-Off (PTO) shafts, lubricate
the profile tubes and keep them in a dry place.
6. Spray the implement with a coat of rust-preventing oil.
7. Parts polished with use and the piston rods of the hy-
draulic cylinder may get rusty. Clean and brush with
grease parts polished with use and the piston rods to
protect against wind and weather.
8. Change the oil in the hydraulic system, the cutter bar
and the gearboxes.
9. Support the implement to relieve the weight from the
tires. Leave tires inflated. Tire and rubber components
life will be extended if protected from sunlight during
storage.
NOTE: Periodic checks will help to keep your implement
maintenance and repairs to a minimum and avoid costly
breakdowns during the season. Therefore, it is good prac-
tice to have the implement inspected at the end of the sea-
son.
