MAINTENANCE

Before operating your Finishing Mower, make sure it is properly lubricated and thoroughy inspected.  Only a
minimum of time and effort is required to regularly lubricate and maintain this machine to provide long life and
trouble free operation.

WARNING!

Always disengage the PTO before raising the Rotary Cutter for transporting or making
adjustments.

LUBRICATION INFORMATION

Do not let excess grease collect on or around parts, particulary when operating in sandy areas.  The illustrations
below shows lubrication points.  The chart gives the frequency of lubrication in hours, based on normal operating
conditions.  Severe or unusual conditions may require more frequent lubrication.  

Figure  1.

Use an SAE multi-purpose, lithium-type grease for all locations shown.  Be sure to clean the fitting thoroughly
before using grease gun.  Daily lubrication of the wing driveline slip joint is necessary.  Failure to maintain proper
lubrication will result in damage to U-joints, gearbox, and/or driveshaft.
