MAINTENANCE CONTINUED:
7. WING LIFT CYLINDER REMOVAL - See Fig. 13. If possible lower
wing to field position if wing lift cylinder must be removed for
repair or replacement. This machine uses a hydraulic lock out
valve as a safety device to lock wing in transport position.
Removing wing lift cylinder leaves machine without a safety
lock. If wing lift cylinder must be removed with wing in folded
position, install a safety chain between wing frame and main
frame to prevent wing from falling down.
Fig. 13
CAUTION: IF WING LIFT CYLINDER IS REMOVED WHEN WING IS FOLDED INTO TRANSPORT POSITION, ALWAYS INSTALL A SAFETY CHAIN
BETWEEN WING FRAME AND MAIN FRAME TO PREVENT WING FROM FALLING. IF WING FELL SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH
COULD OCCUR TO PERSON(S) NEARBY AND MACHINE WOULD BE DAMAGED SEVERELY.
8. Keep all safety decals clean and in good condition to provide a constant reminder of safe operating procedures.
9. Replace any destroyed, missing or illegible decals and deflectors.
IMPORTANT: WHEN STORING DISC FOR WINTER, DO NOT LEAVE CYLINDERS UNDER HYDRAULIC PRESSURE, ESPECIALLY IF CYLINDERS ARE
ACTIVATED DURING COLD WEATHER. THE EXPANSION OF OIL WHICH TAKES PLACE WHEN WARM OR HOT WEATHER RETURN
MAY CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE TO CYLINDER, LINES OR HOSES.
IMPORTANT: WINGS MAY UNFOLD DUE TO THERMAL
EXPANSION OF HYDRAULIC OIL CAUSING
DAMAGE TO CULTIVATOR, PROPERTY OR
SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH TO PERSON(S)
NEARBY. RELEASE PRESSURE IN ALL
CYLINDERS AND CLOSE HYDRAULIC
LOCKUP VALVES BEFORE UNHITCHING
