5.9.2
Returning The Machine Back To Work
Returning the machine back to work, in most cases, is similar to preparing the machine for storage shown in
Section 5.9.1. If the procedure shown in that section is adhered to, a lot of the preparation work will have already
been done to quickly reintroduce the machine back into work condition.
Follow the following points:
Depending on the period of the machine being unused and whether the machine has been stored
outside, the machine may require cleaning.
Great care should be taken when using pressure washers.
Do not
hold the pressure washer lance
close to the paintwork and items containing seals as this can cause damage and discolouration.
Spearhead does not recommend using steam cleaners.
Fit the input PTO shaft following the guidance given in Section 4.4.1 and torque the taper pin to
230Nm (170 ft/lbs).
Inflate tyres (if applicable) to the correct pressure as stated in Section 5.5.1.
If not carried out before storage, grease all grease points following the guidance given in Section 5.2.
If not carried out before storage, tighten all fasteners, pins and hoses to the recommended torque.
Carry out a full machine inspection, using the Machine Inspection Record guide sheet found in Section
5.8.
Where parts are broken, damaged and deemed not fit for use; replace with genuine Spearhead parts
using the online Interactive Parts facility at:

You will require the machine serial number. Assistance to its location can be found in Section 1.3
Spearhead Multicut rotary mowers are designed to withstand the most rigorous conditions and with a
little care and attention will give many years of trouble-free service. So as not to invalidate the warranty
and to avoid problem, use only genuine Spearhead parts and make sure the machine is not driven at a
speed in excess of 540/1000 rpm on the PTO.
