MAINTENANCE
Tongue
The Tongue Hitch Pins attach the Tongue to the Center Section and should be checked for signs of wear or
cracking. Replace as needed. The Drawbar 1” bolt fastens the cutter to the tractor Drawbar. When the cutter is
unhitched and this 1” bolt is removed, examine for signs of cracking wear. Replace the Drawbar 1” bolt at first
signs of either problem. Attach Safety Chain securely to cutter and tractor.
CENTER & WING GEARBOXES
The Gearboxes have been filled with lubricant to the Test Plug Level prior to shipment. However, you should
check the oil level at Test Plug before operating, and frequently thereafter.
The gearbox should not require additional lubricant
unless the box is cracked or a seal is leaking. It is
recommended that the vent plug be checked after
every 8 to 10 hours of operation and oil added until
it runs out Test Plug hole. The Test Plug on the
Center Gearbox, Right & Left Wing Gearbox is
located on the side of the Gearboxes. Vent Plugs
are located on top of all Gearboxes. FIGURE
