Section 4:
Maintenance & Lubrication
Maintenance
Proper servicing and adjustments are key to the long life
of any implement. With careful inspection and routine
maintenance, you can avoid costly downtime and repair.
Check all bolts after using the unit for several hours to be
sure they are tight. Replace any worn, damaged, or
illegible safety labels by obtaining new labels from your
Land Pride dealer.
The parts on your CA15 Series Core Aerator have been
specially designed and should only be replaced with
genuine Land Pride parts.
Do not alter the equipment in a
way which adversely affect its performance or reliability.
DANGER
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Always secure equipment with solid, non-concrete supports
before working under it. Never go under equipment supported
by concrete blocks or hydraulics. Concrete can break,
hydraulic lines can burst, and/or hydraulic controls can be
actuated even when power to hydraulics is off.
WARNING
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Do not alter implement or replace parts on the implement with
other brands. Other brands may not fit properly or meet OEM
(Original Equipment Manufacturer) specifications. They can
weaken the integrity and impair the safety, function,
performance, and life of the implement. Replace parts only
Clean Spoons
The core Aerator efficiency is greatly reduced when the
spoons become plugged with dirt and debris. Remove
dirt and debris with a tool such as a screw driver or any
other hard pointed object. To make the job easier, clean
spoons immediately after operation. If needed, soak
spoons in water to soften the dirt and debris.
Long Term Storage
Clean, inspect, service, and make necessary repairs to
the implement when storing it for long periods and at the
end of the season. This will help ensure the unit is ready
for field use the next time you hook-up to it.
1.
Remove any dirt and grease that may have
accumulated on the Aerator and moving parts.
Remove dirt and debris that become plugged in the
spoons with a screw driver or any hard pointed
object.
2. Wash Core Aerator surfaces thoroughly with a garden
hose.
3. Inspect Aerator for loose, damaged, or worn parts
and adjust or replace as needed.
Repaint parts where paint is worn or scratched to prevent
rust. Ask your Land Pride dealer for aerosol touch-up
paint. Paint is also available in touch-up bottles with
brush, quarts, and gallon sizes by adding TU, QT, or GL
to the end of the aerosol part number.
4. Replace all damaged or missing decals.
5. Lubricate as noted in
coating of oil may also be applied to unpainted areas
to minimize oxidation.
6. Store Aerator on a level surface in a clean, dry place.
Inside storage will reduce maintenance and make for
a longer life.
7.
Follow all unhooking instructions on page 10 when
disconnecting tractor from the Aerator.
