11 Maintenance and care
11.1 General maintenance instructions
To maintain the implement in good condition even after a long service life, the following instructions
must be observed:
Before every operation, check the hydraulic hose lines for wear, damage and ageing.
When replacing the hydraulic hose lines, lines must be used that comply with the technical
requirements of the implement manufacturer.
In Point 5, you will find some basic safety regulations for maintenance work.
Original parts and accessories are designed especially for the machines or implements.
Please note that spare parts and accessories not supplied by us have also not been tested and
approved by us.
The installation or use of such products can therefore possibly negatively change or impede the
constructional properties of your implement. The manufacturer rules out any liability for damages
resulting from the use of non-original parts and accessories.
The manufacturer is not liable for any unauthorised modifications and the use of components
and auxiliary parts.
CAUTION! Liquids escaping under high pressure can penetrate the skin. For this reason, a
physician must be consulted immediately in case of accident!!!
After cleaning, lubricate all of the grease points and distribute the grease evenly in the bearing
points (e.g. perform a short test run).
Do not use a high pressure cleaner to clean bearing and hydraulic parts.
The paint can be damaged by cleaning with excessive pressure.
During the winter, the implement should be protected against rust with an environmentally-
friendly product.
Park the implement protected from weather conditions.
Put down the implement in a way that the tines are not needlessly strained (roller all the way
down, use the parking supports at the front).
11.2 Regular maintenance instructions
All bolted connections should be re-tightened at the latest after 3 operating hours and again after
20 hours, and then checked regularly (loose bolts can cause significant consequential damage,
which is not covered by the warranty).
The grease points on the joints and bearings must be lubricated regularly (approx. every 10
operating hours with universal grease).
Regular visual inspection of the tine safety must be performed.
For implements with fast coupler, the guide slots must also be lubricated.
After the first 10 operating hours and subsequently every 50 operating hours, the hydraulic units,
hydraulic hoses and couplings must be checked for leaks and the bolted connections must be
tightened if necessary.
Hydraulic hose lines must be replaced at the latest 6 years after their manufacturing date.
The manufacturing date of the hydraulic hose lines is specified on the fittings.
The platform kit and its access ladder must be visually inspected on a regular basis.
The rubber for fastening the access ladder of the platform kit must be checked regularly for wear
and replaced if necessary. It should only be replaced by trained specialist personnel and with
original parts.
