STORAGE
Preparing For Storage
1. Perform daily level checks, lubrication,
and bolt/linkage inspections, as required
in this manual.
2. Every other season, drain the coolant
from the engine and radiator. Probe the
drain holes during drainage to ensure
they are not clogged by sludge, scale, or
other deposits.
Fill the cooling system to the top with a
50/50 water/antifreeze mixture. Run the
engine to operating temperature and
recheck level.
3. Add a fuel stabilizer to the fuel and fill the
tank.
4. Run the engine until it reaches operating
temperature, then drain the engine oil.
Refill with fresh oil of recommended
weight and install a new lubricating oil fil-
ter element.
5. With the engine at normal operating tem-
perature, cycle all hydraulic functions,
including the steering.
6. Release tension on all belts.
7. Use plastic bags and water-resistant
adhesive tape to seal the air intake
opening, all exhaust manifold openings,
engine oil fill cap, hydraulic oil tank
breather cap, and fuel tank cap.
NOTE: If the spray boom will be stored
separately from the machine, ensure
all boom hole openings are capped
or covered with a suitable covering.
8. Turn the Battery Disconnect Switch OFF.
9. Disconnect and remove batteries. Com-
pletely clean and charge the batteries.
Coat the terminals with dielectric grease
and store the batteries in a cool place
(above freezing).
10. Thoroughly wash the machine and its
attachments. Touch up any painted sur-
faces that are scratched or chipped.
NOTE: For paint touch-up
recommendations, contact your local
John Deere dealer.
11. Replace worn or missing decals. Refer
to “Safety Decals” in the
Safety and Pre-
cautions Section
for proper location of
warning decals and corresponding part
number.
NOTE: For decal replacement, contact your
local John Deere dealer.
12. Apply multi-purpose grease to coat
exposed hydraulic cylinder rods.
13. Refer to the Spray System Console
manufacturer’s operation manual for
detailed information on storage proce-
dures for the console and flow meters.
14. If the machine must be stored outside,
cover with a waterproof cover.
Dual Product System
-If Equipped
When storing your machine for the
season, ensure both the Single and Dual
Product Solution Systems are properly
drained and cleaned.
Winterization
To winterize the spray system, it is
recommended that you use an
environmentally safe RV-type antifreeze and
water mixture that will give you adequate
protection to -30° F.
•
Drain any remaining solution in the spray
system.
• Thoroughly rinse the spray system.
• Run antifreeze/water mixture through the
spray system until it comes out all of the
boom openings.
NOTE: Ensure the Agitation Valve Switch
(located on the side console) is in the
OPEN position before running
antifreeze/water mixture through the
system.
Repeat process for both the Foam Marker
and Rinse Systems.
Winterizing the Hand Wash System
1. Remove Drain Plug (located beneath the
hand wash reservoir) and allow fresh
water to drain from tank.
