MAINTENANCE
Maintenance Checklist
Before each use:
1. Check blades and spindles to be sure that no foreign
objects, such as wire or steel strapping bands, are
wrapped around them.
2. Inspect blades for wear. Replace if necessary. If it is
necessary to sharpen the blades, remove the blades
from the spindles before sharpening. DO NOT
sharpen blades while still attached to the mower.
3. Make sure all shields are in place and in good
condition. Repair or replace any missing or damaged
shields.
4. Perform lubrication per instructions.
5. Listen for abnormal sounds, which might indicate
loose parts, damaged bearings, or other damage.
Correct any deficiency before continuing operation.
6. With the engine off, engage the blower assembly.
Check the belt tension and inspect the pulley belt
for cracks or tears.
7. Check for wear or deterioration of the upper or lower
hoses. If there are any portions of the hose that have
been torn or worn through, replace immediately.
After Each Use:
1. Clean all debris from machine especially from the
container, underneath the belt shields, and safety
decals. Replace any missing or illegible decals.
2. Inspect the unit for worn or damaged components.
Repair or replace before the next use. Any
replacement component installed during repair shall
include the component’s current safety decal specified
by the manufacturers to be affixed to the component.
3. Under normal usage, the bag material is subject to
deterioration and wear and should therefore be
frequently checked for necessary replacement. Any
replacement bag should be checked to ensure
compliance with the original manufacturer’s
recommendations or specifications.
4. Check belt for proper tension.
Lubrication
Gearbox:
NOTE: The gearbox is filled with 6.0 oz. of Mobilube
HD Plus 80W-90 oil and permanently sealed. There is
no need for scheduled lubrication. The oil level should
only be checked if a leak is observed or if a change in
gearbox noise is noticed.
Operators are recommended to check for leaks weekly.
If a leak is observed, both the gasket and the seals are
recommended to be replaced.
Replace the oil using 5.5 oz. of the recommended
Mobilube HD Plus 80W-90 oil. Be sure to not overfill.
Blower Assembly:
NOTE: The following is for older PTO models that
contain a greaseable zirc fitting. Newer models
contain maintenance-free bearings and are without
a greasable fitting.
.
1. On initial use: Grease the fitting on the blower shaft.
2. Every 25 hours of use: Re-grease the grease fitting.
NOTE: Use only white lithium based grease for
lubrication of the shaft on the blower assembly.
