17. TRACTOR, BOOM, AND ATTACHED HEAD STORAGE

Properly preparing and storing the unit 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:

16.7 Shutting Down the Attached Head

To shut down attached mower head, first bring the

tractor to a complete stop. Decrease engine RPM

to idle then disengage cutterhead. The mower head

will come to a complete stop within a suitable

amount of time. Do not engage or disengage the

cutterheads at a high RPM unless there is an

emergency situation.

Park the tractor on a level surface, place the

transmission in park or neutral and apply the

parking brake, shut down the engine, remove the

key, and wait for all motion to come to a complete

stop before exiting the tractor. OPS-B- 0011_K

BEFORE leaving the tractor seat, always set the parking brake and/or set

the tractor transmission in parking gear, disengage the PTO, stop the

engine, remove the key, and wait for all moving parts to stop. Place the

tractor shift lever into a low range or parking gear to prevent the tractor

from rolling. Never dismount a Tractor that is moving or while the engine

is running. Operate the Tractor controls from the tractor seat only.
