After-season maintenance and storing
At the end of the season the following shall be performed:
clean, wash and dry the rake,
carefully grease unpainted surfaces and 3-point linkage pins,
remove any traces of rust and paint the area affected,
check lubrication of intersecting axis gears; if leaks are present, remove them immediately,
periodically check the rake and secure the moving parts with grease to prevent the rake from
corrosion of internal mechanisms such as gear wheels, bearings, or shafts, and cause
breakdowns.
Rake should be stored in standstill position so it is supported onto protected support legs. It is
recommended to store the set on paved ground, preferably in roofed places, inaccessible to
unauthorized personnel or animals. If the machine is exposed to weather conditions, apply
lubrication regularly.
If the machine is stored for a long period of time before first operation, its technical condition
should be examined. Paint the area where the paint is missing.
NOTICE:
It is recommended for the operator to wear protective gloves when performing
maintenance works.
CAUTION!
Be extremely careful when performing service, repair and maintenance
works. Avoid any contact of grease and oil with the skin.
CAUTION!
Service, repair and maintenance works can only be performed with drive off,
engine shut down and ignition key out.
6.4.1. Restarting the machine after longer storing periods
After longer storing period do the following:
Make sure that all nuts and screws are tightened with correct torque,
Make sure that all guards are installed in place,
Lubricate the whole machine,
Check pressure in tires.
