TION
NEVER ROTATE THE JACK WITH WEIGHT ON IT. Attempting to rotate a jack under load
can cause the implement to fall causing damage or possible serious injury.
Remove the hydraulic hoses from the tractor and
secure to the implement in the provide hose holder
on the hitch to avoid contact with dirt.
Remove the driveline from the tractor PTO shaft.
Place the driveline in the storage bracket to prevent
it from contacting mud or dirt which can
contaminate the universal joint bearings and
shorten the life of the driveline.
When disconnecting the implement, the tractor
should be completely shut down. Relieve hydraulic
pressure by moving the control levers back and
forth several times.
Pivot the parking jack to near vertical by loosening
the jack mount and rotating it on the frame. Tighten
the jack mount bolts again. Lower the parking jack
and raise the implement until the tongue clevis is
no longer resting on the drawbar and is supported
completely by the jack. Also make sure the parking
jack is resting squarely on a hard level surface.
Remove the pin.
OPS-R-0109
Do not operate this Equipment with hydraulic oil or fuel leaking. Oil
and fuel are explosive and their presence could present a hazard. Do
not check for leaks with your hand! High-pressure oil streams from
breaks in the line could penetrate the skin and cause tissue damage
including gangrene. To check for a hose leak, SHUT the unit ENGINE
OFF and remove all hydraulic pressure. Wear oil impenetrable gloves,
safety glasses and use cardboard to check for evidence of oil leaks. If
you suspect a leak, REMOVE the HOSE and have it tested at a Dealer.
If oil does penetrate the skin, have the injury treated immediately by a
physician knowledgeable and skilled in this procedure.
