Maintenance Tips
- Regularly inspect cutterbar components (blades, guards, skids): Check for wear, damage, or looseness. Replace worn blades and guards at recommended intervals (typically every 50-100 hours of use) to maintain optimal cutting performance and prevent damage to the cutterbar.
- Grease all moving parts according to the operator's manual: Pay close attention to grease points on the cutterbar, gearboxes, and hitch components. Use a high-quality, lithium-based grease that meets Reese's specifications. Consistent greasing prevents premature wear and extends component life.
- Check hydraulic fluid levels and inspect for leaks: Reese equipment relies on hydraulic systems for many functions. Regularly check the hydraulic fluid level and top off as needed. Use the specified hydraulic fluid type recommended in the operator's manual. Inspect hoses and fittings for leaks and repair or replace as necessary.
- Perform seasonal maintenance: Before storing your Reese equipment for the off-season, thoroughly clean it, lubricate all moving parts, and touch up any chipped paint to prevent rust. Drain and replace hydraulic fluid if it's been in use for more than a year. Properly storing your equipment will help ensure it's ready to go when you need it.
