1-4 Basic Understanding on Servicing

should be exercised to maintain them in a clean state. Do not disassemble unnecessarily.
(2) Defective parts due to wear and other causes shall be discarded and new parts ordered with the tractor model, serial No.,
code No., and part name clearly defined. (Keep the defective parts on hand to show to the customer.)
(3) When assembling, it is essential to have oil applied to all moving parts so that they will be provided with initial oil film
until normal lubrication takes place.
(4) Unless specially instructed, bolts and nuts shall be tightened to the correct setting using a torque wrench.
