11. RAKE STORAGE
Properly preparing and storing the implement 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 implement
to prevent damage from rotting hay and
standing water.
• Lubricate all implement grease points and fill
gearbox oil levels as detailed in the
maintenance section.
• Tighten all bolts and pins to the
recommended torque.
• Check the implement for worn and damaged
parts. Perform repairs and make
replacements immediately so that the
implement will be ready for use at the start of
the next season.
• Store the implement in a clean, dry place with
the implement housing resting securely on
blocks or at ground level.
• Keep the implement from sitting in water, dirt
and other contaminants.
• Use spray touch-up enamel where necessary
to prevent rust and maintain the appearance
of the rake. OPS-RK-0010
Never allow children or other persons to ride on the Tractor or Implement.
Falling off can result in serious injury or death.

12. 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
