As is tradition I’ve located and removed the power Harrow from the hedge it was left under in September, I’ve checked the oil and greased the roller bearings and pto - is that it? Should I CHANGE the oil or put some extra grease in the bottom bit that’s full of grease ? Feel somehow I should be doing more given the amount of work it does - any thoughts?

You could change the gearbox oil? Maybe? Can you get a manual to look in?
Not sure about changing the fluid grease in the trough, all in the manual I should think. Bet that isn't under the hedge where you parked it last September.

If you've got the time, drop the gearbox oil and see what color it is and if there's any silver. Other than grease everything I would make sure there's liquid grease in the bed, check the rotor bearings and you should be good to go.

A mare treats his to a couple of grease cartridges in the bed each year. Picture a grease gun (no top) as a giant syringe, schllop it in.
Pull the slip clutch apart and check ?
I you do , sure as eggs is eggs he will start slipping
…... hmmm ….will have to tighten him up a bit after Yeah I think the manual was in a plastic bag taped to it for a couple of years till it fell off! I was wondering mainly about the bottom trough that’s full of grease as it’s got like a filler cap at each end as if you would want to maybe top it up ocasionaly although thinking about it if it’s not leaking grease, and mine isn’t, the amount of grease must remain constant.
