STORAGE
WARNING
To avoid personal injury or death:
• Do not clean the machine while the engine is
running.
• To avoid the danger of exhaust fume poisoning,
do not operate the engine indoors without
proper ventilation.
• When storing the tractor, remove the key from
the key switch to prevent unauthorized persons
from operating the tractor and getting injured.
TRACTOR STORAGE
If you intend to store your tractor for an extended
period of time, follow the procedures outlined below.
These procedures will ensure that the tractor is ready
to operate with minimum preparation when it is
removed from storage.
1. Check the bolts and nuts for looseness and tighten
if necessary.
2. Apply grease to tractor areas where bare metal will
rust, and also to pivot areas.
3. Detach the weights from the tractor body.
4. Inflate the tires to a pressure a little higher than
usual.
5. Change the engine oil and run the engine to
circulate oil throughout the engine block and
internal moving parts for about 5 minutes.
6. Keep the PTO clutch control switch or lever at
“DISENGAGE” position while tractor is stored for a
long period of time.
7. With all implements lowered to the ground, coat any
exposed hydraulic cylinder piston rods with grease.
8. Remove the battery from the tractor. Store the
battery following the battery storage procedures.
(See Checking battery condition on page 113.)
9. If possible, let the DEF/AdBlue
®
out of its tank and
store the fluid in another specific tank.
Read the SCR muffler section of this manual for
information about the long-term storage of DEF/
AdBlue
®
.
(See SELECTIVE CATALYTIC REDUCTION (SCR)
MUFFLER on page 40.)
10. Keep the tractor in a dry place where the tractor is
sheltered from the elements. Cover the tractor.
11. Store the tractor indoors in a dry area that is
protected from sunlight and excessive heat.
If the tractor must be stored outdoors, cover it with
a waterproof tarpaulin.
Jack the tractor up and place blocks under the front
and rear axles so that all 4 tires are off the ground.
Keep the tires out of direct sunlight and extreme
heat.
IMPORTANT :
• When washing the tractor, be sure to stop
the engine. Allow sufficient time for the
engine to cool down before washing.
• Cover the tractor after the muffler and the
engine have cooled down.
REMOVING THE TRACTOR
FROM STORAGE
1. Check the tire air pressure and inflate the tires if
needed.
2. Jack the tractor up and remove the support blocks
from under the front and rear axles.
3. Install the battery. Before installing the battery, be
sure it is fully charged.
4. Check the fan belt tension.
5. Check all fluid levels (engine oil, transmission and
hydraulic oil, engine coolant, DEF/AdBlue
®
and any
attached implements).
6. Start the engine. Observe all gauges.
If all the gauges are functioning properly and have
normal readings, move the tractor outside.
Once outside, park the tractor and let the engine
idle for at least 5 minutes. Shut the engine off and
walk around tractor and make a visual inspection
looking for evidence of oil or water leaks.
7. With the engine fully warmed up, release the
parking brake and test the brakes for proper
adjustment as you move forward. Adjust the brakes
as necessary.
NOTE :
• The information regarding DEF/AdBlue
®
corresponds only to the M5N-091 and
M5N-111 tractor models.
