12. MOWER STORAGE
It is recommended that the mower be stored with the center section and both wings fully lowered to ground
level.  If the mower is stored with the wings in the raised position, select a level area and install wing transport
braces to prevent the wings from falling BEFORE disconnecting the mower hitch from the tractor.
Properly preparing and storing the mower 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:
Thoroughly clean all debris off the mower to 
prevent damage from rotting grass and 
standing water.
Lubricate all mower grease points and fill 
gearbox oil levels as detailed in the 
maintenance section.
Tighten all bolts and pins to the recommended 
torque.
Check the mower for worn and damaged 
parts.  Perform repairs and make 
replacements immediately so that the mower 
will be ready for use at the start of the next 
season.
Store the mower in a clean, dry place with the 
mower housing resting securely on blocks or 
at ground level.
Keep the driveline yoke from sitting in water, 
dirt and other contaminants.
Use spray touch-up enamel where necessary 
to prevent rust and maintain the appearance of 
the mower. 
It is critical that driveline clutches slip when an
obstacle or heavy load is encountered to avoid mower and/or tractor damage.  If the mower sits outside for an
extended period of time or is exposed to rain and/or humid air, the clutch lining plates must be inspected to
ensure they are not frozen together from rust or corrosion.  If the mower has been exposed to such conditions,
at the start of each mowing season, and any time it is suspected that the slip clutch plates may be frozen
together, readjust the slip clutch as detailed in Seasonal Clutch Maintenance of the maintenance section in
this manual.  OPS-R-0032
Never allow children to play on or around Tractor or Implement. Children can slip or fall off
the Equipment and be injured or killed. Inadvertent contact with controls can cause the
Implement to shift or fall crushing themselves or others.  
 (SG-25)
13. TRANSPORTING THE TRACTOR AND IMPLEMENT
Inherent hazards of operating the tractor and implement and the possibility of accidents are not left behind
when you finish working in an area.  Therefore, the operator must employ good judgement and safe operation
practices when transporting the tractor and implement between locations.  By using good judgement and
following safe transport procedures, the possibility of accidents while moving between locations can be
substantially minimized.  OPS-U- 0017
