Solenoid Valve Block

Refer to Figure 6-4:

The 1/2" hex nut on the end of the solenoid armature

shaft must be removed to remove a solenoid valve from

the valve block. Use care when removing and replacing

this nut. Do not tighten nut with more than 3 ft. lbs. of

torque.

See your nearest Land Pride Dealer to purchase new

solenoid vales and/or seal kits.

Tractor Maintenance

One of the most important things you can do to prevent

hydraulic system problems is to ensure that your tractor's

reservoir remains free of dirt and contamination.

Use a clean cloth to wipe hose ends before attaching

them to your tractor. Replace filter element for your

tractor’s hydraulic system at the prescribed intervals.

These simple maintenances will go a long way to prevent

the occurrence of solenoid valve and hydraulic cylinder

problems on the Parallel Arm Cutter.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT exert more than 3 ft. lbs. of

torque on the hex nut securing the solenoid

armature. Remember, 3 ft. lbs. is slightly more than

finger tight! Overtightening this nut will distort hollow

armature shaft and may result in valve break down.

Cutter Storage

Clean the Rotary Cutter at the end of the working season

or when the cutter will not be used for a long period.

1. Store control stick in a clean dry location. Do not

leave it out in the rain. Clean control stick with a

damp rag. Do not submerge control stick in water or

clean with high pressure wash.

2. Clean off any dirt or grease that may have

accumulated on the deck, gearbox and on any of the

moving parts. Scrape off compacted dirt from the

bottom of the deck and then wash the surface

thoroughly with a garden hose. A coating of oil may

also be applied to the lower deck area to minimize

oxidation.

3. Check blades and blade bolts for wear and replace if

necessary. See “Section 6: Maintenance &

Lubrication” on page 37.

4. Inspect for loose, damaged or worn parts and adjust

or replace as needed.

5. Lubricate as noted in “Section 6: Maintenance &

Lubrication” on page 37.

6. Store the cutter in a clean, dry place. The deck should

be positioned on a flat surface with arms retracted and

the jack stands lowered to suitable 3-Point height.

Ensure that the main frame is stable. Use auxiliary

supports or posts if necessary to prevent the

possibility of the unit tipping over.

7. Repaint parts where paint is worn or scratched to

prevent rust. Aerosol Buckskin touch-up paint is

available from your Land Pride Dealer.
