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
OPS R 0032_D
Never allow children to play on or around Tractor or Implement. Children can slip or fall off the
Equipment and be injured or killed. Inadvertent contact with controls can cause the Implement to
shift or fall crushing themselves or others. (SG-25)
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 pro-
cedures, the possibility of accidents while moving between locations can be substantially minimized. OPS-U- 0017
Never allow children or other persons to ride on the Tractor or Implement.
Falling off can result in serious injury or death. (SG-10)
Before transporting the tractor and mower, idle the tractor
engine, disengage the PTO and wait for all mower moving
parts to come to a complete stop. Once all mower parts
are completely stopped, raise the mower to transport
height. NOTE: When raising the mower, maintain 1" clear-
ance between the driveline and mower deck. If additional
mower deck height is needed for safe transport, discon-
nect the driveline from the tractor and secure its end to
the mower deck. The mower can then be raised to the
maximum lift height.
