Maintaining the Header
–
End-of-Season
Ensure the header is ready for the next harvest by taking steps to prevent corrosion, reduce unnecessary wear, and replace
worn components.
CAUTION
Never use gasoline, naphtha, or any volatile material for cleaning purposes. These materials may be toxic and/or
flammable.
CAUTION
Cover the cutterbar and knife guards to prevent injury from accidental contact.
•
Lower the reel completely. If the header is stored outside, tie the reel to the frame to prevent rotation caused by
the wind.
•
Lower the header onto blocks to keep the cutterbar off the ground.
•
Clean the header thoroughly.
•
Check for worn or broken components and order replacements from your Dealer. Immediate repair of these items will
save time and effort at the beginning of next season.
•
Loosen the drive belts.
•
Lubricate the header thoroughly leaving excess grease on the fittings to keep moisture out of the bearings.
•
Apply grease to exposed threads, cylinder rods, and sliding surfaces of components.
•
Store the machine in a dry, protected place if possible. If storing outside, always cover with a waterproof canvas or
other protective material.
•
If storing the machine outside, remove the drapers and store them in a dark, dry place. If not removing the drapers,
store the header with the cutterbar lowered so water and snow will not accumulate on the drapers. The weight of
water and snow accumulation puts excessive stress on the drapers and header.
•
Replace or tighten any missing or loose hardware. For instructions, refer to
9.1 Torque Specifications, page 535
.
•
Repaint all worn or chipped painted surfaces to prevent rust.
6.3.5
Checking Hydraulic Hoses and Lines
Check hydraulic hoses and lines daily for signs of leaks.

Figure 6.2: Hydraulic Pressure Hazard
WARNING
•
Avoid high-pressure fluids. Escaping fluid can penetrate the
skin causing serious injury.
•
Keep your hands and body away from pinholes and nozzles
which can eject fluids under high pressure.
•
Relieve pressure before disconnecting hydraulic lines, and
tighten all connections before applying pressure.
•
If any fluid is injected into the skin, it must be surgically
removed within a few hours by a doctor familiar with this
type of injury, or gangrene may result.
