● Check for proper lubrication of the entire machine.
● Check for proper oil levels in the engine.
● Check condition and sharpness of the tines. Check
for plugged or blocked tines.
● Inspect all controls for proper operation
● Inspect the entire machine for loose fasteners.
Tighten if necessary.

Storage
TO STORE

engine manufacturer’s directions.
To avoid getting a flat spot on the front tires, store with
the front elevated.
Check the tines and remove any cores, stones, or
debris. Apply a light film of light machine oil to the tines
to control rust. See the lubrication directions and follow
the procedures.
If needed, fold the handlebar into the storage position.
Loosen the handlebar locking nuts and rotate the
handlebar forward until locks into a forward position.
The handlebar should not rest on the front bumper.
Retighten locking nuts. Take care not to trap or stress
any control cables.
TO RETURN TO SERVICE AFTER EXTENDED
STORAGE
, inspect the entire machine for any damage
that may have occurred during storage. Look for loose
or missing parts. Refer any needed correction to the
proper service level maintenance personnel. Check all
lubrication levels.
