Maintenance and Lubrication

Maintenance

Proper servicing and maintenance is the key to long

implement life. With careful and systematic inspection,

you can avoid costly maintenance, downtime, and repair.

Always turn off and remove the tractor key before making

any adjustments or performing any maintenance.

Crushing Hazard:

You may be severely injured or killed by being crushed under

the falling implement. Always have transport locks in place

and frame sufﬁciently blocked up when working on implement.

High Pressure Fluid Hazard:

Escaping ﬂuid under pressure can have sufﬁcient pressure to

penetrate the skin. Check all hydraulic lines and ﬁttings before

applying pressure. Fluid escaping from a very small hole can

be almost invisible. Use paper or cardboard, not body parts,

and wear heavy gloves to check for suspected leaks. If an acci-

dent occurs, seek immediate medical attention from a physi-

cian familiar with this type of injury.

1. After using your planter for several hours, check all

bolts to be sure they are tight.

2. Remove excess slack from chains. Clean and use

chain lube on all roller chains as needed.

3. Maintain proper air pressure in planter tires.

4. Keep disk scrapers properly adjusted.

5. Clean planter on a regular basis. Regular and thor-

ough cleaning will lengthen equipment life and

reduce maintenance and repair.

6. Lubricate areas listed under “Lubrication” on page

64.

7. Replace any worn, damaged, or illegible safety

labels by obtaining new labels from your Great

Plains dealer.
