Section 5 Maintenance and Lubrication

Maintenance

General

Proper servicing and adjustment is the key to the long life of

any farm equipment. With careful and systematic inspection

and lubrication, you can avoid many costly repairs and

downtime.

Always turn off tractor and remove the key before making

any adjustments or performing maintenance.

Securely block raised implement before working under or

around it. Use cylinder channel locks on the gauge wheels

and fold lock pins on the wings.

Read and obey all safety labels on the implement.

1. After initially running the implement for several hours,

check all bolts to be sure they are tight. Do not overtight-

en the bolts holding the distribution tower assembly to-

gether.

2. Lubricate the implement as noted in the Lubrication por-

tion of this section.

3. Always maintain correct pressures in tires.

4. Replace any worn, damaged or illegible safety labels at

once. New labels can be obtained from your Great

Plains dealer.

5. Any ﬁttings which will not take grease must be cleaned

or replaced so that lubrication can be performed.

6. Periodically check and secure all bolts, pins, and

fasteners.

7. Occasionally inspect hydraulic hoses for cuts,

cracks, and aging. Check ﬁttings and cylinders for

evidence of leaks.

8. Inspect cart link pins and bolts often for wear or

loosening of bolts.

Storage

Store the drill in an area where children do not play.

1. If you store the drill in the unfolded position, unpin

the fold cylinder rod ends and fully retract cylinders

to prevent rust.

2. If the cart is disconnected from the implement for

storage, plug all 2 1/2” openings to prevent birds

from nesting in them.

3. Lubricate the drill at all points listed in this section.

4. Check all bolts, pins, ﬁttings, and hoses. Tighten, re-

pair, or replace parts as needed.

5. Check all moving parts and soil contact parts for

wear or damage. Make notes of any parts needing

repair before the next drilling season.

6. Use Great Plains touch up paint to cover scratches,

chips, and worn areas to prevent rust.

7. Store the implement inside if possible to obtain a

longer implement life.
