OWNER SERVICE
The information in this section is written for operators
who possess basic mechanical skills. If you need help,
your dealer has trained service technicians available.
For your protection, read and follow the safety informa-
tion in this manual.
■ Keep all persons away from operator control
area while performing adjustments, service, or
maintenance.
■ Before working underneath, disconnect drive-
line from tractor, lower wings to ground, raise
cutter, and pin transport bar in raised posi-
tion. Attach parking jack and lower to ground.
Securely block all four corners of center section
and each wing with jack stands. Blocking up
prevents the cutter from dropping due to hy-
draulic leak down, hydraulic system failure, or
mechanical component failure.
■ Service and maintenance work not covered in
OWNER SERVICE must be done by a qualified
dealership. Special skills, tools, and safety pro-
cedures may be required. Failure to follow these
instructions can result in serious injury or death.
■ Before cleaning, servicing, adjusting, repairing
or unplugging, stop tractor engine, place all
controls in neutral, set park brake, remove ig-
nition key, and wait for all moving parts to stop.
■ Never perform cleaning, service or maintenance
with engine running.
■ If you do not understand any part of this manual
and need assistance, see your dealer.
■ Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing
to avoid entanglement in moving parts. Wear
sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protec-
tive equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing,
and head; and respirator or filter mask where
appropriate.
BLOCKING METHOD
To minimize the potential hazards of working under-
neath the cutter, follow these procedures:
■ Before performing any service or maintenance,
lower equipment to ground or block securely,
turn off engine, remove key, and disconnect
driveline from tractor PTO.
■ Never go underneath equipment (lowered to the
ground or raised) unless it is properly blocked
and secured. Never place any part of the body
underneath equipment or between moveable
parts even when the engine has been turned off.
Hydraulic system leak down, hydraulic system
failures, mechanical failures, or movement of
control levers can cause equipment to drop or
rotate unexpectedly and cause severe injury or
death. Follow Operator’s Manual instructions
for working underneath and blocking require-
ments or have work done by a qualified dealer.
Do not position jackstands under wheels, axles, or
wheel supports. Components can rotate and cause
cutter to fall.
1.
Jackstands with a load rating of 1000 lbs. or more
are the only approved blocking device for this cutter.
Install jackstands (shown by
X
s in Figure 5) under
the cutter before working underneath unit.
2.
Consider the overall stability of the blocked unit.
Just placing jackstands underneath will not ensure
your safety.
The working surface must be level and solid to
support the weight on the jackstands. Make sure
jackstands are stable, both top and bottom. Make
sure cutter is approximately level.
3.
With full cutter weight lowered onto jackstands, test
blocking stability before working underneath.
4.
If cutter is attached to tractor when blocking, set the
brakes, remove key, and block cutter before work-
ing underneath.
5.
Securely block rear tractor wheels, in front and
behind.
