Do not attempt to mount a tire unless you have the proper equipment and experience to perform the job. Always maintain the correct tire pressure. Do not inflate the tires above the recommended pressure. Never weld or heat a wheel and tire assembly.
The heat can cause an increase in air pressure resulting in a tire explosion. Welding can structurally weaken or deform the wheel. Explosive release of fluids from pressurized cooling system can cause serious burns.
Shut off machine. Only remove filler cap when cool enough to touch with bare hands. Slowly loosen cap to first stop to relieve pressure before removing completely. When inflating tires, use a clip-on chuck and extension hose long enough to allow you to stand to one side and NOT in front of or over the tire assembly.
Use a safety cage if available. Check wheels for low pressure, cuts, bubbles, damaged rims or missing lug bolts and nuts. Direct exposure to hazardous chemicals can cause serious injury. Potentially hazardous chemicals used with John Deere equipment include such items as lubricants, coolants, paints, and adhesives.
A Material Safety Data Sheet MSDS provides specific details on chemical products: physical and health hazards, safety procedures, and emergency response techniques. Check the MSDS before you start any job using a hazardous chemical. That way you will know exactly what the risks are and how to do the job safely. Then follow procedures and recommended equipment.
Before returning machine to customer, make sure machine is functioning properly, especially the safety systems. Install all guards and shields. Dispose of Waste Properly Improperly disposing of waste can threaten the environment and ecology. Potentially harmful waste used with John Deere equipment include such items as oil, fuel, coolant, brake fluid, filters, and batteries. Use leakproof containers when draining fluids. Do not use food or beverage containers that may mislead someone into drinking from them.
Do not pour waste onto the ground, down a drain, or into any water source. Inquire on the proper way to recycle or dispose of waste from your local environmental or recycling center, or from your John Deere dealer. Table of Contents Fastener Torques DO NOT use these hand torque values if a different torque value or tightening procedure is given for a specific application. Check tightness of fasteners periodically. DO NOT use air powered wrenches.
Shear bolts are designed to fail under predetermined loads. Always replace shear bolts with identical grade. Fasteners should be replaced with the same grade. Make sure fastener threads are clean and that you properly start thread engagement. This will prevent them from failing when tightening. When bolt and nut combination fasteners are used, torque values should be applied to the NUT instead of the bolt head. Tighten toothed or serrated-type locknuts to the full torque value.
Reference: JDS - G When bolt and nut combination fasteners are used, torque values should be applied to the NUT instead of the bolt. DO NOT refuel machine while: indoors, always fill gas tank outdoors; machine is near an open flame or sparks; engine is running, STOP engine; engine is hot, allow it to cool sufficiently first; smoking.
Keep all dirt, scale, water or other foreign material out of gasoline. Keep gasoline stored in a safe, protected area. DO NOT use de-icers to attempt to remove water from gasoline or depend on fuel filters to remove water from gasoline.
Use a water separator installed in the storage tank outlet. When storing the machine or gasoline, it is recommended that you add John Deere Gasoline Conditioner and Stabilizer TY or an equivalent to the gasoline. Older machines that were designed for leaded fuel may see some accelerated valve and seat wear. Use the appropriate oil viscosity based on the expected air temperature range during the period between recommended oil changes.
Operating outside of these recommended oil air temperature ranges may cause premature engine failure. ONLY use a quality break-in oil in rebuilt or remanufactured engines for the first 5 hours maximum of operation. Other oils may be used if above John Deere oils are not available, provided they meet one of the following specifications:. Engine Oil - Europe Use the appropriate oil viscosity based on their expected air temperature range during the period between recommended oil changes.
Engine rebuild instructions should be followed closely to determine if special requirements are necessary. If the above recommended John Deere oils are not available, use a break-in engine oil meeting the following specification during the first 5 hours maximum of operation:. After the break-in period, use the John Deere oil that is recommended for this engine. This anti-corrosion grease is formulated to provide the best protection against absorbing moisture, which is one of the major causes of corrosion.
This grease is also superior in its resistance to separation and migration. Hydrostatic Transmission Oil Use the appropriate oil viscosity based on these air temperature ranges. Operating outside of these recommended oil air temperature ranges may cause premature hydrostatic transmission or hydraulic system failures.
Use only the oils recommended. Consult with your John Deere Dealer, or Sales Branch, to obtain the alternative lubricant recommendations. If alternative lubricants are to be used, it is recommended that the factory fill be thoroughly removed before switching to any alternative lubricant.
Use of alternative lubricants could cause reduced life of the component. Avoid mixing different brands, grades, or types of oil. Oil manufacturers blend additives in their oils to meet certain specifications and performance requirements. Mixing different oils can interfere with the proper functioning of these additives and degrade lubricant performance.
All machines operate at top efficiency only when clean lubricants are used. Use clean storage containers to handle all lubricants. Store them in an area protected from dust, moisture, and other contamination.
Store drums on their sides. Make sure all containers are properly marked as to their contents. Dispose of all old, used containers and their contents properly. Filtration of oils is critical to proper lubrication performance. Always change filters regularly.
Most John Deere filters contain pressure relief and antidrainback valves for better engine protection. Mixing Of Lubricants In general, avoid mixing different brands or types of lubricants. Manufacturers blend additives in their lubricants to meet certain specifications and performance requirements.
Mixing different lubricants can interfere with the proper functioning of these additives and lubricant properties which will downgrade their intended specified performance.
Chassis Grease Use the following grease based on the air temperature range. Operating outside of the recommended grease air temperature range may cause premature failures. ONLY use a quality grease in this application. DO NOT mix any other greases in this application. The location of identification numbers and component product identification numbers are shown.
