Properly preparing and storing the cutter 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:

• thoroughly clean all debris off the cutter to prevent damage from rotting grass and

standing water.

• Lubricate all cutter grease points and fill gearbox oil levels as detailed in the maintenance

section.

• tighten all bolts and pins to the recommended torque.

• Check the cutter for worn and damaged parts. Perform repairs and make replacements

immediately so that the cutter will be ready for use at the start of the next season.

• Store the cutter in a clean, dry place with the cutter housing resting securely on blocks or

at ground level.

• Keep the driveline yoke from sitting in water, dirt and other contaminants.

• use spray touch-up where necessary to prevent rust and maintain the appearance of

the cutter.
