Tires/Wheels —————
See Specifications and Fluids page at the back of this manual for proper tire inflation pressures.
Front wheel bearings should be re-packed once per season.
Wheel lug nuts should be inspected after 10 hours of initial operation, then once per season, or every 200
hours. Tighten as needed.
Bearing Lubrication —————
For maximum bearing and component life, it is recommended to follow the intervals listed below.
1. Grease steering yoke shafts every 15 hours with one pump.
2. Grease all other fittings weekly.
Sweeping Reel —————
The sweeping reel is equipped with wire teeth installed on the front of the tine bars, and rubber fingers on
the backside of the tine bars. The wire teeth should be replaced when worn to a length of 2-1/2”. (New length is
3-1/4”) Replace the rubber fingers when they begin to show substantial wear.
The right end plate spindle utilizes a wheel hub with tapered roller bearings. These bearings should be
removed and re-packed once per season.
Serpentine Belt Idler —————
Due to the fact that this piece of equipment operates in an extremely dusty environment, it is recommended
that the serpentine belt idler be changed every 250 hours. See the parts book engine page for idler identification.
