Long-Term Storage

Clean, inspect, service, and make necessary repairs to 
the implement when storing it for long periods and at the 
end of the season. This will help to ensure the unit is 
ready for field use the next time you hook-up to it.

DANGER

!

To avoid serious injury or death:  
Always disconnect driveline from the tractor before servicing 

the drivetrain and components powered by the drivetrain. A 

person can become entangled in the drivetrain if the tractor is 

started and the power take-off is engaged.

1.

Clean off any dirt and grease that may have 
accumulated on the Rotary Tiller. Scrape off 
compacted dirt and then wash surfaces thoroughly 
with a garden hose. 

2. Check the tines for wear and replace if necessary. 

See 

Tine Replacement

 earlier in this section.

3. Inspect the tiller for loose, damaged or worn parts 

and adjust or replace if needed.

4. Lubricate as noted in 

“Ordering Replacement 

Parts” 

on page 24. 

5. Drain and refill gearbox and chaincase oil. Be sure to 

replace all oil plugs. 

Drain oil in gearbox by removing the bottom drain 
plug or right-hand cap. 

Drain oil in chaincase by removing the bottom plug 
and tipping tiller backwards. 

6. Replace all damaged or missing decals.

7.

Store tiller on a level surface in a clean, dry place. 
Inside storage will reduce maintenance and make for 
a longer tiller life.

8. Follow all parking instructions on page 16 when 

disconnecting tractor from tiller.

9. Repaint parts where paint is worn or scratched to 

prevent rust. Ask your dealer for Land Pride Aerosol 
touch-up paint. They are also available in touch-up 
bottles with brush, quarts, and gallon sizes by adding 
TU, QT, or GL to the end of the Aerosol part number.

10. A coating of oil may be applied to worn surfaces in 

lieu of painting to minimize oxidation.

Ordering Replacement Parts

Land Pride offers equipment in factory standard Beige 
with black highlights. This implement may also be 
purchased in Orange, Green, or Red. 

When ordering an optional color, the suffix number 
corresponding to the color must be added at the end of 
the part number. Parts ordered without the suffix number 
will be supplied in factory standard colors.

For example, if you are ordering a replacement part with 
part number 555-555C and the existing part is orange, 
then add the suffix 82 to the end of the number to make 
the part number read 555-555C82.
