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 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 Landscape Rake have been specially
designed and should only be replaced with genuine Land
Pride parts. Do not alter the rake in a way which will
adversely affect its performance.

Section 5: Maintenance & Lubrication
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 to ensure the unit is ready
for field use the next time you hook-up to it.
1.
Remove all dirt and grease that has accumulated on
the rake and then wash the surface thoroughly with a
garden hose.
2. Inspect for loose, damaged, or worn parts and adjust
or replace as needed.
3. Repaint parts where paint is worn or scratched to
prevent rust. Ask your Land Pride dealer for aerosol
touch-up paint. They are 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
below. A coating
of oil may be applied to the unpainted surfaces of the
rake teeth to minimize oxidation.
6. Store rake on a level surface in a clean, dry place.
Inside storage will reduce maintenance and make for
a longer rake life.
7.
Follow all unhooking instructions on page 16 when
disconnecting tractor from rake.

part number read 555-555C82.
