Long-Term Storage
Clean, inspect, service, and make necessary repairs to
the grinder when parking it for long periods and when
parking it at the end of a working season. This will help
ensure that the unit is ready for use next time you hook-
up to it.
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 with genuine OEM parts.
•
Always shut tractor down using “Tractor Shutdown
Procedure” provided in this manual before servicing,
adjusting, cleaning, or maintaining this implement.
1. Clean off any dirt and grease that may have
accumulated on the Stump Grinder. Scrape off
compacted dirt and then wash its surface thoroughly
with a garden hose.
2. Inspect Stump Grinder for loose, damaged, or worn
parts and adjust or replace when needed.
3. Check cutting teeth and mounts for loose hardware
and wear. Replace teeth and/or teeth assemblies as
needed.
4. 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.
5. Replace all damaged or missing guards & decals.
6. Lubricate as noted in
“Lubrication Points”
starting
on page 33.
7. A light coat of oil or grease may be applied to the
cutting wheel and to any exposed hydraulic cylinder
rods to minimize oxidation.
