13. MOWER STORAGE

Properly preparing and storing the mower at the end of the season is critical to maintaining its appearance
and to help ensure years of dependable service.  The following are suggested storage procedures:

Thoroughly clean all debris off the mower to
prevent damage from rotting grass and
standing water.

Lubricate all mower grease points and fill
gearbox oil levels as detailed in the
maintenance section.

Tighten all bolts and pins to the recommended
torque.

Check the mower for worn and damaged
parts.  Perform repairs and make
replacements immediately so that the mower
will be ready for use at the start of the next
season.

Store the mower in a clean, dry place with the
mower housing resting securely on blocks or
at ground level.

Keep the driveline yoke from sitting in water, dirt and other contaminants.

Use spray touch-up enamel where necessary to prevent rust and maintain the appearance of the mower. 

It is critical that driveline clutches slip when an obstacle or heavy load is encountered to avoid mower and/or
tractor damage.  If the mower sits outside for an extended period of time or is exposed to rain and/or humid
air, the clutch lining plates must be inspected to ensure they are not frozen together from rust or corrosion.  If
the mower has been exposed to such conditions, at the start of each mowing season, and any time it is
suspected that the slip clutch plates may be frozen together, readjust the slip clutch as detailed in Seasonal
Clutch Maintenance of the maintenance section in this manual.  

OPS-R-0032_A

Never allow children or other persons to ride on the Tractor or Implement.
Falling off can result in serious injury or death.  

(SG-10)

14. TRANSPORTING THE TRACTOR AND IMPLEMENT

Inherent hazards of operating the tractor and implement and the possibility of accidents are not left behind
when you finish working in an area.  Therefore, the operator must employ good judgement and safe operation
practices when transporting the tractor and implement between locations.  By using good judgement and
following safe transport procedures, the possibility of accidents while moving between locations can be
substantially minimized.
