CAUTION: Cutterbar and knives will move whenever the auger is rotated by hand.

IMPORTANT: Do not use high pressure washer spray directly on bearings or any other area that might be damaged by water. High pressure water can get past most seals and cause damage. Dry these areas, then lubricate and run platform.

1. Clean the platform thoroughly. Chaff and dirt will draw moisture and cause corrosion.

2. Lubricate platform. Grease threads on adjusting bolts.

3. Pull up on tensioner arm sheave handle (A) and remove drive belt (B). Wipe belt clean with a good non-flammable solvent.
