MSP. Disengage automatic cycling function before working around unit.

Rockshaft pivot points –
Each pivot (located at the left and right) contains
an upper and lower grease zerk. Due to the limited motion of the
rockshaft, these should be lubricated on 20-hour intervals. This may
vary based on the number of times the unit is raised and lowered.

Electrode coulters Pivot --In all but the most extremely rocky conditions, the coulter electrodes
should not flex in the field, thus minimal movement will be realized at the pivot. 80-hour
intervals should be sufficient.
