Maintenance and Lubrication
Proper servicing and maintenance is the key to long
implement life. With careful and systematic inspection,
you can avoid costly maintenance, downtime and repair.
Always turn off and remove the tractor key before making
any adjustments or performing any maintenance.
Crushing Hazard:
You may be severely injured or killed by being crushed under a
falling implement. Always use center section and gauge wheel
lift locks when working near or under a raised implement.
High Pressure Fluid Hazard:
Escaping fluid under pressure can have sufficient pressure to
penetrate the skin. Check all hydraulic lines and fittings before
applying pressure. Fluid escaping from a very small hole can
be almost invisible. Use paper or cardboard, not body parts,
and wear heavy gloves to check for suspected leaks. If injured,
seek immediate medical attention from a health care provider
familiar with this type of injury.
After using drill for several hours, check all bolts to be
sure they are tight.
1. Securely lock up drill before working on it.
2. Lubricate areas listed under “Lubrication and
Scheduled Maintenance” on page 132.
3. Adjust idlers to remove excess slack from chains.
Clean and use chain lube on all roller chains as
needed.
4. Check for air leaks at lids, doors, seals, caps and
hose connections.
5. Inflate tires as specified on “Tire Inflation Chart” on
page 147.
6. Replace any worn, damaged or illegible safety
decals. Order new decals from your Great Plains
dealer. “Safety Decals” on page 6.
