Maintenance as Required
This section details service procedures that should be done as they are required.
6.15.1
Seat Belts
The windrower is equipped with seat safety belts that should be regularly inspected to ensure it can function properly in
the event of an accident.
•
Keep sharp edges and items that can cause damage away from the belts.
•
Check the belts, buckles, retractors, tethers, slack take-up system, and mounting bolts for damage.
•
Check that bolts are tight on the seat bracket or the mounting.
•
Replace all parts that have damage or wear.
•
Replace belts that have cuts that can weaken the belt.
•
Keep the seat belts clean and dry. Clean them only with a soap solution and warm water. Do
NOT
use bleach or dye on
the belts, as this may weaken the material.
6.15.2
Draining Fuel Tank
Draining the fuel tank is necessary to remove old or contaminated fuel.
DANGER
To prevent bodily injury or death from the unexpected startup of the machine, always stop the engine and remove the
key from the ignition before leaving the operator
’
s seat for any reason.
WARNING
•
To prevent personal injury or death from an explosion or fire, do NOT allow open flames or sparks near the
windrower when it is being refueled.
•
Do NOT refuel the windrower when the engine is hot or running.
•
Ensure that the fuel delivery system is properly bonded and grounded. A bonded fuel delivery system has an
electrically conductive and unbroken connection between all components of the fuel delivery system. A wire
connection from the fuel delivery system to the machine chassis will equalize the static potential between the two
machines, further reducing the chance of a static electric discharge. A properly grounded fuel delivery system has
an electrically conductive connection from the fuel delivery system tank to the ground.
1.
Shut down the engine, and remove the key from the ignition.
2.
Locate the fuel tank on the right side of the windrower frame.
