Long-Term Storage

Clean, inspect, service, and make necessary repairs to
the implement when storing it for long periods and at the
end of the season. This will help to ensure the unit is
ready for field use the next time you hook-up to it.
!
DANGER
To avoid serious injury or death:
•
Always disconnect driveline from power take-off shaft
before servicing drivetrain and cutter blades. The power
take-off can be engaged if tractor is started.
•
Always secure equipment with solid, non-concrete supports
before working under it. Never go under equipment
supported by concrete blocks or hydraulics. Concrete can
break, hydraulic lines can burst, and/or hydraulic controls
can be actuated even when power to hydraulics is off.
!
WARNING
To avoid serious injury or death:
Always store cutter with 3-point hitch pivoted back as far
as possible. The floating 3-point hitch when not hooked
to a tractor can fall backwards unexpectedly causing
bodily injury.
1. Clean off accumulated dirt and grease and scrape off
compacted dirt under the deck. Wash surface
thoroughly with a garden hose.
2. Check blades and blade bolts. Replace as needed.
See "Cutter Blade Maintenance" on page 54.
3. Inspect for loose, damaged or worn parts, and adjust
or replace as needed.
4. Repaint parts where paint is worn or scratched to
prevent rust. Ask your Land Pride dealer for aerosol
touch-up paint. Paint is also available in touch-up
bottles with brush, quarts, and gallon sizes by adding
TU, QT, or GL to the end of the aerosol part number.

deck area to minimize oxidation.

Inside storage will reduce maintenance and make for
a longer cutter life.
