OPERATION

Storage Procedure

Do the following at the end of each operating

season:

CAUTION:

1. Clean the windrower thoroughly. Never use

gasoline, naphtha or any volatile material

for cleaning purposes. These materials may

be toxic and/or flammable.

2. Store windrower in a dry protected place.

Never operate engine in a closed building.

Proper ventilation is required to avoid

exhaust gas hazards.

3. Remove the battery. Bring to full charge and

store in a cool, dry place not subject to

freezing. Remember when working around

storage batteries that all of the exposed

metal parts are "live". Never lay a metal

object across the terminals because a spark

and short circuit will result.

4. Cover cutterbar and knife guards to prevent

injury from accidental contact.

Also:

5. If stored outside, always cover windrower with a waterproof tarpaulin or other protective material. This will

protect the switches, instruments, tires, etc. from inclement weather.

If no cover is available; seal air cleaner intake and exhaust pipe with plastic bags and/or waterproof tape.

6. If possible, block up windrower to take weight off tires. If it is not possible to block up the machine, increase

tire pressure by 25% for storage. Adjust to recommended pressure before next use.

7. Repaint all worn or chipped painted surfaces to prevent rust.

8. Lubricate the windrower thoroughly, leaving excess grease on fittings to keep moisture out of bearings.

Apply grease to exposed threads and sliding surfaces of components.

9. Check for worn components and repair. Tighten loose hardware and replace any missing hardware. See

Specifications section for torque charts.

10. Check for broken components and order replacements from your dealer. Attention to these items right

away will save time and effort at beginning of next season.

11. Add rust inhibitor to the engine oil.

Diesel Engine - use 10 oz (300 ml)

Run engine to operating temperature to mix inhibitor with oil.

12. To prevent condensation, fill hydraulic oil reservoir to filler neck with approved hydraulic system oil. See

"Fuels, Fluids and Lubricants" in Maintenance/Service section.

13. Test engine coolant anti-freeze concentration to ensure it is sufficient to protect engine against lowest

expected temperature.
