6. SERVICING & MAINTENANCE
Safety: Store all lubricants away from excessive heat, dust, moisture and contaminants.
Safety: Ensure tractor and machine is stopped & keys out of ignition before set-up/maintenance.
Greasing & Lubrication Points
1. PTO shaft x2
Wipe grease nipples with a clean cloth before greasing to avoid injecting any dirt and grit. Press
grease into each grease nipple three to five times. We recommend using a hand-held grease gun for
best results.
If grease nipples will not take grease, remove and clean thoroughly. Also clean lubricant passageway.
If you notice any grease points are broken replace or repair them immediately.
Other Maintenance
Blades: Check condition of the blades and replace if worn/broken. Always take care when handling
blades, wear gloves and use suitable tools for changing blades. If blades are replaced, check they are
balanced in order to avoid any excessive vibration.
Oils: Ensure oil levels are checked and topped up when needed. Replace any oils per the schedule.
PTO Shaft: Check the condition of your PTO shaft and replace if worn or damaged immediately.
Cleaning: Ensure the mower deck is cleaned of mud and grass. Remove debris is from any moving
parts to prevent entanglement. Do not spray water on bearings when cleaning with a high pressure
washer.
