6. 

MAINTENANCE:

 

 

The AP silage block cutter requires low maintenance. During maintenance 
always observe the following safety measure :  

 

Do 

not

 perform any type of maintenance work on the AP silage block 

cutter while it is coupled to the tractor / wheel loader or when the 
hydraulic system can be activated in any other way.  

 
 

6.1 

Maintenance of the hydraulic system:

 

 

Maintenance of the hydraulic system should only be done by the AP dealer. 
AP however commends the user to regularly check the hydraulic system for 
leaks. 

 

WARNING:  When leakage appears : stop immediately and contact the  
 

 

AP dealer.  

 
 

6.2 

Lubrication:

 

 

All hinged parts of the AP silage cutter must be lubricated weekly with an 
universal lubricant. For all greasing parts see Chapter 2, Greasing and most 
important parts.  

 
 

6.3 

Damages:

 

 

The coupling pins for attachment of the AP silage block cutter to the front 
loader or the tractor / mini loader must be checked for damages periodically 
(at least once per quarter, more often when used frequently). Although the AP 
silage block cutter is a solid construction, the rest of the machine should also 
be checked for damages and possible loose coming bolts and nuts. Particular 
attention is required to the nuts with which the tines are attached to the AP 
silage block cutter.   
Damaged parts must be replaced by your AP dealer.
