Before operating your Rotary Cutter, make sure it is properly lubricated and thoroughly inspected. Only a
minimum of time and effort is required to regularly lubricate and maintain this machine to provide long life and
trouble free operation.
Always disengage the PTO before raising the Rotary Cutter for transporting or making
adjustments.
Lubrication
Do not let excess grease collect on or around parts, particularly when operating in sandy areas.
illustrations below shows lubrication points. The chart gives the frequency of lubrication in hours, based on
normal operating conditions. Severe or unusual conditions may require more frequent lubrication. Figure
Mnt-R-0087.
Use an SAE multi-purpose lithium-type grease for all locations shown, except for the gearbox, which uses
NLGI-000 grease. Be sure to clean the fitting thoroughly before using grease gun. Daily lubrication of u-joints
and telescoping tubes is necessary. Failure to maintain proper lubrication will result in damage to U-joints,
gearbox, and/or driveshaft.
