MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
Before beginning any maintenance operation or oiling, make sure that the safety instructions
have been followed. Before adjustments or verification, make sure the DISC-O-MULCH is
horizontal and stable. Block the machine if necessary.
Oiling
The roller cages are fixed by means of two self-aligning blocks which provide grease. For the
auto-alignment to function correctly the blocks should be greased at the start of each new
season and regularly throughout the season.
The grease used is lithium based grease reinforced with molybdenum bisulphide / NLGI2
grade. AGRISEM INTERNATIONAL can not be held responsible when any other type of grease
is used.
