Never work under the Implement, the framework, or any lifted
component unless the Implement is securely supported or blocked up
to prevent sudden or inadvertent falling which could cause death or
serious injury.
Relieve hydraulic pressure prior to doing any maintenance or repair work
on the Implement. Place the Implement on the ground or securely blocked
up, disengage the PTO, and turn off the tractor engine. Push and pull the
Remote Cylinder lever in and out several times prior to starting any
maintenance or repair work.

13.SNOW BLOWER STORAGE

Properly preparing and storing the snow blower 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:
1. Thoroughly clean all debris off the implement to prevent damage from rotting grass and standing water.
2. Lubricate all implements points and fill gearbox oil levels (applies to 3-point only) as detailed in the
maintenance section.
3. Tighten all bolts and pins to the recommended torque.
4. Check the implement for worn and damaged parts. Perform repairs and make replacements immediately
so that the implement will be ready for use at the start of the next season..
5. Store the implement in a clean, dry place with the implement resting securely on blocks or at ground level.
6. Keep the driveline's yokes or hydraulic hoses from sitting in water, dirt and other contaminants.
7. Use spray touch-up enamel where necessary to prevent rust and maintain the appearance of the
implement.
NOTE: If equipped with the truck-loading chute, ensure the chute is rotated to the side. If the chute is facing
forward, the blower may tip over.
Never allow children to play on or around Tractor or Implement. Children can slip or fall off
the Equipment and be killed or injured. Inadvertent contact with controls can cause the
Implement to shift or fall crushing themselves or others.
Always maintain the safety signs in good readable condition. If the safety signs are missing,
damaged, or unreadable, obtain and install replacement safety signs immediately.
Periodically inspect all moving parts for wear and replace when necessary
with authorized service parts. Look for loose fasteners, worn or broken
parts, and leaky or loose fittings. Make sure all pins have cotter pins and
washers. Serious injury may occur from not maintaining this machine in
good working order.
