Care should be taken during installation and operation to ensure the cables
are not trapped or kinked
Correctly adjusted cables will position the lever with equal amount of travel in
either direction
It is recommended to pack with grease all moving parts of the spool value
detent kit, mounted on the bottom of each spool valve assembly
Storage
At the end of the season before storing, thoroughly wash the machine off, removing
all traces of grass and dirt. Great care must be taken when washing with high-
pressure hoses, do not hold the water jet close to the paintwork. Use steam cleaners
with caution and be sure to remove all detergents to avoid any discoloring or damage
to paint. Grease all grease points until fresh grease shows. Store PTO shaft and
drive belts in a dry place. Control levers must be kept dry. Smear grease on all
areas vulnerable to corrosion, in particular the chrome ram rods.
Remember regular maintenance will greatly increase the life of the machine
