STORAGE PROCEDURE
Do the following at the end of each operating season:
CAUTION:
1. Clean the windrower thoroughly. Never use gasoline, naphtha or any volatile material for cleaning
purposes. These materials may be toxic and/or flammable.
2. Store machine in a dry, protected place if possible.
3. Cover cutterbar and sickle guards to prevent injury from accidental contact.
Also:
4. Repaint all worn or chipped painted surfaces to prevent rust.
5. Loosen all drive belts.
6. Lubricate the windrower thoroughly, leaving excess grease on fittings to keep moisture out of bearing.
Apply grease to exposed threads and sliding surfaces of components.
7. Check for worn or broken components and repair or order replacements from your dealer. Attention to
these items right away will save time and effort at beginning of next season.
8. Tighten loose hardware and replace any missing hardware. See Specification section for torque charts.
9. Remove divider rods (if equipped) to reduce space required for inside storage.
10. Units with stub guards - To prevent stub guard adjuster bar bolts from becoming seized, apply penetrating
oil at bolts prior to storage.
