Maintenance Position
Many maintenance procedures can be performed easier by positioning the trimmer in an upright
“maintenance” position. This position is for maintenance purposes only. Do not transport or operate the
trimmer in the upright position.
WARNING
● Two people are required when setting the trimmer body to the maintenance position. One person must
steady the trimmer as the other installs the bolt. Do not allow the trimmer body to go beyond vertical
and fall in the opposite direction without the bolt in place as this could cause injury to you or damage
the trimmer.
● Never transport the trimmer in the “Maintenance” position. This could damage the machine and is not
covered by the warranty.
1. Remove the bolt and wing nut that is holding the trimmer in the trimming operating positions.
2. Lift the trimmer body up to a vertical position. With the head of the bolt facing the tractor, install the bolt
all the way into the transport hole of the 3-point bracket.
3. Let the trimmer mounting bracket rest against the bolt to hold it in the vertical (maintenance) position.
STORAGE
Before storing make sure the trimmer is clean and dry for years of trouble free service.
Lightly lubricate all trimmer surfaces and moving parts to prevent rust.
Store indoors or protected area during severe weather and winter months.
