17 INTRODUCTION 181 Series Shown INTRODUCTION The 141 and 181 Series Blades are available in widths of 8' and 9' for the 141 Series and 9 and 10 for the 181 Series. These blades feature a heavy-duty CAT II-III three-point hitch and quick-hitch. The 8 and 9 models of the 141 Series are rated for up to 140HP (2 WD) & 110 HP (4WD) tractors. The 181 Series with 9 or 10 Blade are rated at 180HP (2WD) and 140HP (4WD) tractors. The Blade is available with either hydraulic or manual mainframe swing, moldboard angle, and moldboard tilt. The Blade can be offset a maximum of 35" (141 Series) and 37 (181 Series) for working outside the dual wheels on larger horsepower tractors. The 4" diameter solid steel kingpin (141 Series) and 5 solid steel kingpin (181 Series) with boxed section reinforced 1/2 x 18" moldboards, and the superior strength of the mainframes ensure dependability. The bolt-on gauge wheels are an excellent feature in helping to control the cutting depth. This is especially critical when trying to leave a smooth finish. Skid shoes, quick-tach end plates. At least 20% of the tractor s weight must be on the front tires with the implement lifted to provide adequate traction for safe steering under good conditions. Slow down on hills, rough terrain, and curves. Front and rear, and left and right are determined by the normal direction of travel (the same as on your automobile). 141/181 Series Rear Blade Introduction Section 2-3

51 MAINTENANCE SECTION Maintenance Section 5-1

52 MAINTENANCE General Maintenance MAINTENANCE 1. Grease all grease fittings and lubrication points before each use. 2. Inspect the implement for any worn or damaged parts and replace with a genuine Bush Hog part. 3. Make sure all safety decals are intact and legible. 4. Inspect unit for cracks and chips and repair if necessary. Consult your Bush Hog dealer before any repair is made. Any unauthorized repairs will void the warranty. 5. Replace eccessively worn Grader Blades. A badly worn edge increases the strain on the blade and the tractor and reduces efficiency. 6. Check all bolt and nuts to insure they are properly torque. Consult the torque chart found in this manual for torque values. Proper Torque Chart for Fasteners The chart lists the correct tightening torque for fasteners. When bolts are to be tightened or replaced, refer to this chart to determine the grade of bolts and the proper torque except when specific torque values are assigned in manual text. RECOMMENDED TORQUE IN FOOT POUNDS UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED IN THE MANUAL NOTE: These values apply to fasteners as received from supplier, dry or when lubricated with normal engine oil. They do not apply if special graphite or molydisulphide greases or other extreme pressure lubricants are used. This applies to both UNF fine and UNC coarse threads. 141/181 Series Rear Blade Maintenance Section 5-2

53 MAINTENANCE LUBRICATION The Bush Hog 141 and 181 Series Rear Blades are rugged and dependable and perform satisfactorily with proper preventive maintenance.
