Routine Maintenance

1. It is important to inspect the hydraulic hoses on the
plastic wrapper before every use. Check the hoses for
leaks and hose damage such as metal fibers showing.
2. NEVER check for hydraulic hose leaks with your hands!
If oil penetrates the skin and enters the bloodstream, the
results can be fatal!
3. If there is any visible damage to the hoses, replace them
immediately.
Hose Maintenance
1. Over time, as the plastic wrapping reels wear, it may be
necessary to adjust the stop bolts (a) on the reel bars
(Figure 12).
2. When the stop bolts are adjusted properly the links (b)
on the outer reel tubes should be tilted forward slightly
and it should only take minimal force to release the reel
(Figure 12).
3. If the links are tilted forward too far it will take excessive
force to release the reel, which could result in damage to
the reel. If the links are not tilted forward, the reel may
collapse on its own during operation.
4. Adjust the nuts on the link stop bolts (a) to change the
tilt of the links (b) (Figure 12).
5. The ends of the collapsible tubes (c) should extend
3-1/8” beyond the end of the center tube (d) (Figure 12).
Adjusting the Reels

2. The gauge wheels, center coulter, and side coulter hubs
use sealed tapered bearings. Repack bearings with
general purpose grease once per season.
3. The two shaft bearings (a) on each reel should be
greased every 50 hours, or once per season of operation
(Figure 11).
4. Lubricate the center coulter pivot bushings with general
purpose grease once per season.
