Long-Term Storage
When you are ready to park or store your harrow, it is best
to park it on a dry hard packed gravel or concrete surface
where it remains visible and grass and weeds cannot
grow up through it. A harrow setting in deep grass and
weeds can be hard to locate and hazardous to vehicles,
livestock and people not seeing the harrow covered in
vegetation.
Clean, inspect, service, and make necessary repairs to
the implement when storing it for long periods and at the
end of the season. This will help to ensure the unit is
ready for field use the next time you hook-up to it.
DANGER
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Always secure harrow in the up position with solid supports
before servicing underside of harrow. Never work under
equipment supported by hydraulics. Hydraulics can drop
equipment if controls are activated or if hydraulic lines burst.
Either situation can drop the harrow instantly even when
power to hydraulics is shut off.
CAUTION
!
To avoid minor or moderate injury:
The hitch when not hooked to a tractor can fall backwards
unexpectedly causing bodily injury. Always store harrow with
hitch pivoted down onto the harrow frame when not in use.
1.
Clean off any dirt and grease that may have
accumulated on the harrow and moving parts.
Scrape off compacted dirt and then wash surface
thoroughly with a garden hose.
2.
Check teeth and locknuts to make sure they are not
missing, broken, or excessively worn. Replace
harrow teeth as needed. See “Spike Tooth
Replacement” on page 15.
3.
Inspect for loose, damaged, or worn parts and adjust
or replace as needed.
4.
Repaint parts where paint is worn or scratched to
prevent rust. Ask your dealer for Land Pride aerosol
touch-up paint. Paint is also available in touch-up
bottles with brush, quarts, and gallon sizes by adding
TU, QT, or GL to the end of the aerosol part number.

5.
Replace all damaged or missing decals.
6.
A coating of oil may also be applied to the teeth to
minimize oxidation.
7.
Store harrow on a level surface in a clean, dry place.
Inside storage will reduce maintenance and make for
a longer harrow life.
8.
Follow all unhooking instructions on page 14 when
disconnecting tractor from harrow.
Ordering Replacement Parts
Land Pride offers equipment in factory standard Beige
with black highlights. This implement is also available in
Orange.
When ordering an optional color, the suffix number
corresponding to the color must be added at the end of
the part number. Parts ordered without the suffix number
will be supplied in factory standard colors.
For example, if you are ordering a replacement part with
part number 555-555C and the existing part is orange,
then add the suffix 82 to the end of the number to make
the part number read 555-555C82.
