RG55R Operation • Service • Maintenance 

34

Stopping The Machine

1. When stopping the machine after normal operation, 

lower the engine speed to SLOW, and cycle each of 

the hydraulic controls slowly for about 30 seconds each 

to help the hydraulic com po nents to cool slowly.

2.  Flip the cutting wheel ON/OFF Switch down to the OFF 

position, stopping the cutting wheel rotation.

Engine Stopping

1.  Reduce the engine speed to IDLE.
2.  Turn the engine start switch to the OFF position to stop 

the engine. Remove the engine start key.

Parking The Machine

Park on a level surface if possible. If it is necessary to park 
on a grade, block the wheels securely. Do not park sideways 
on a hill, side-sliding could occur.

•  Lower the engine speed control slightly to reduce 

engine rpm.

•  Center the cutter boom, using the joystick.
•  Turn off the cutting wheel using the cutter wheel On/

Off switch

•  Lower the attachment slowly with the Right Joystick until 

the cutting wheel rests on the ground.

Machine Storage

Preparing for Storage

Store the machine in a dry protected place. If the machine 
must be stored outside, cover it with a waterproof canvas 
or other material.
Clean all grease, dirt, mud and other foreign matter from the 
machine. Wash the machine. Start and operate machine to 
help rid it of puddled or excess water. To inhibit rusting, paint 
all exposed surfaces.
All exposed hydraulic cylinder rods should be coated with 
Valvoline Tectyl 506 oil or equivalent. Rusty or pitted cylinder 
rods will dam age O-Rings and cause leakage.
Lubricate all parts that have grease fittings, as outlined in the 
“Maintenance Intervals” section of the Maintenance manual, 
to prevent rust.
With the engine OFF, remove any pressure from the hydraulic 
cylinders by working the control levers back and forth.
Store the battery inside where temperatures do not drop 
below 32° F. Place the battery on wood, not on a concrete 
floor or steel table. Always keep the battery fully charged. 
DO NOT store where an open flame or sparks might occur.
Check your machine for any worn or broken parts at this 
time. By ordering replacement parts now, you can avoid 
unnecessary delays when you remove the machine from 
storage.

1. Store the machine in a flat place and remove the key 

from the engine.

2.  Do not store the machine in a place that has flammable 

material such as dry grass or straw.

3.  When covering the engine for storage, allow the engine 

and muffler to cool off completely.

4.   Operate the engine after checking and repairing damaged 

wirings or pipes, and clearing flammable materials that 

may have accumulated while in storage (such as debris 

brought in by mice).

Removal from Storage

•  Remove all coverings. Wipe excess oil from hy drau lic 

cylinder rods.

•  Lubricate machine entirely, as instructed in the 

“Maintenance Intervals” section of this manual.

•  Check the hydraulic hoses and fuel lines for deterioration, 

and replace as necessary. 

•  Tighten all nuts, bolts and hydraulic fittings. 
•  Replace the hydraulic filter and fuel filter. After prolonged 

storage, change the hydraulic oil, engine oil, and fuel (if 

a storage aid was not used).

•  Check cutter boom drive belt tension. Belt can loosen 

if left in storage for an extended time.  Replace if belt is 

older than 6 years from purchase date.

•  Mount the battery and connect the cables to the machine.

DUE TO HIGH SPEED LOW-FRICTION 

ROTATION, THE CUTTING WHEEL MAY 

CONTINUE TO ROTATE UNNOTICED, EVEN 

AFTER THE ON/OFF SWITCH HAS BEEN 

FLIPPED OFF, AND EVEN AFTER THE ENGINE 

HAS STOPPED. BE SURE THE CUTTING 

WHEEL COMES TO A COMPLETE STOP 

BEFORE MOVING THE MACHINE OR LEAVING 

THE CONTROLS!

NOTICE

Before stopping an engine that has been operating 
at working load, allow the engine to continue to run 
with the throttle midway between slow and fast, for 
at least 15 seconds.
