IMPORTANT: When the grain cart is not going to be used for a period of time, store the cart in a dry, protected place.

Leaving your grain cart outside, open to the weather will shorten its life.

Follow the procedure below when your grain cart is placed in storage for periods up to six months.

1. Cover electronic monitor (if equipped) with plastic before washing the grain cart. Wash or clean and completely

lubricate the grain cart. See "Lubrication Service Schedule" on page 26.

2. Remove all grain from inside the grain tank, auger tube assemblies, and at the clean-out door.

3. Check the gearbox oil and replace with new SAE 80W-90 gearbox lubricant or equivalent if necessary.

4. Touch up areas where paint may have worn away. Use a good quality primer paint, especially before re-applying

graphite paint to the interior slopes of the grain tank.

5. Retract all hydraulic cylinders to prevent the piston rods from rusting.

6. Clean the tires before storage. Inflate the tires at regular intervals.

7. Open the clean-out door at the base of the grain tank.

8. Loosen the Slip Clutch Tension Bolts.
