STORAGE
1. Clean the drill as necessary.
BE SURE
that the seed
boxes, fertilizer box, and all feed systems are completely
cleaned out before storing.
2. Lube and adjust all roller chains.
3. The square bore of the feed cup drive sprocket hub
should be oiled to prevent seizing. Squirt oil on to the
square feed cup shaft and move feed cup adjustment le-
ver back and forth in order to get the oil back into the
square. This is most important before putting the drill in
storage.
4. Lubricate all grease points as indicated in “
Mainte-
nance & Lubrication
5. When in storage, apply a light coat of oil to exposed
cylinder rods.
6. When storing in transport position, use all locking de-
vises as described in the "
Folding
" on page 3-1 and take
the pressure off of the hydraulic cylinders.
7. Feed cup drive sprocket hub should be oiled in its
square bore. Squirt oil on to the square feed cup shaft
and move feed cup adjustment lever back and forth in or-
der to get the oil back into the square.
This is most im-
portant before putting the drill in storage
.
8. Store the drill inside if possible. Inside storage will re-
duce maintenance, and make for a longer drill life.
