STORAGE
The following storage procedure will help you to keep your brush cutter in top condition.
It will also help you get off to a good start the next time your cutter is needed. We therefore
strongly recommend that you take the extra time to follow these procedures whenever your
unit will not be used for an extended period of time.
•
Clean the unit thoroughly, removing all mud, dirt, and grease.
•
Sharpen or replace blades. Replace all blades at the same time and do not try to weld or
straighten damaged blades; loss of integrity may result.
•
Inspect for visible signs of wear, breakage, or damage. Order any parts required, and make
the necessary repairs to avoid delays when starting next season.
NOTE: Purchase only
approved replacement parts.
•
Tighten all loose nuts, capscrews, and hydraulic connections.
•
Check the drive bearing housing for proper lubricant level.
•
Seal hydraulic system from contaminants and secure all hydraulic hoses off the ground to
help prevent damage.
•
Replace decals if damaged, or in unreadable condition.
•
Apply a rust-preventive spray to all moving parts and to the bottom of the deck.
•
Store the unit in a dry and protected place. Leaving the unit outside will materially shorten
its life.
•
Additional Precautions for Long Term Storage:
•
Touch up all unpainted and exposed areas with paint, to prevent rust.
REMOVING FROM STORAGE
•
Remove all protective coverings.
•
Check hydraulic hoses for deterioration, and replace if necessary.
•
Check all nuts and bolts for proper tightness, especially those securing the motor, bearing
housing and blades.
LIFT POINTS
Lifting points are identified by lifting decals where required. Lifting at other points is un
-
safe and can damage attachment. Do not attach lifting accessories around cylinders or in any
way that may damage hoses or hydraulic components. See Diagram
