Storage

At the end of the season and when putting the disc into storage:

□ Clean dirt and debris from around moving parts and from the top of the frame, gang bars, hitch and bridle.

□ Pay special attention to cleaning the area around the bearings. Spray a light coating of oil or rust preventative around the seal area of the bearings.

□ Lubricate all grease fittings to prevent moisture infiltration.

□ It is recommended to park with the disk in the raised position, coat the exposed hydraulic cylinder rod with grease, install the transport stay and relieve the hydraulic pressure. Place a block under the hitch jack to prevent it from sinking into the ground and be sure the tires are properly inflated. Chock the tires front and rear.

□ Clean disk blades to minimize rust.

□ Coat the quick disconnects in grease and wrap in plastic to prevent rust.

□ Make a final inspection for worn, damaged or missing parts and make necessary repairs before the next season.

□ If possible, do not store wing disks in the folded position. Inverted disk blades on the front gang assemblies can accumulate water and snow next to the bearing seal area and result in potential bearing damage.
