Inspections, maintenance and servicing
Continuous maintenance of the silage forks includes regular cleaning and lubrication. The condition of the
hydraulic hoses and components should be monitored regularly. Due to crushing and pinching hazards
caused by the grapple, all maintenance work must be done when the grapple has been lowered down
completely, the hydraulic couplings are released, and the residual pressure is released.
All maintenance procedures must be performed
when the grapple has been lowered down
completely. The grapple may lower by itself causing
serious injuries.
Check the condition of the hydraulic hoses and components regularly when the engine has been turned off
and the pressure has been relieved. Repair all leaks immediately after detecting them; a small leak can
quickly grow into a big one. Do not use the equipment, if you have discovered a fault in the hydraulic system.
Leaking hydraulic fluid may penetrate the skin and cause serious injuries. Hydraulic fluid is also harmful to
the environment.
Check hoses visually for cracks or abrasions. Monitor the wearing of the hoses and stop the use, if the
surface layer of the hose has worn off. If there are signs of leaking, to check the component, hold up a piece
of cardboard in the area where a leak is suspected. Finding any of these faults means that the hydraulic
hose or component in question must be replaced. Spare parts are available from your nearest AVANT
retailer or service point.
Never tighten a hydraulic fitting that is under
pressure, since the fitting may break and the ejected
oil may cause serious injuries. Do not use the
equipment, if you have discovered a fault in the
hydraulic system.
The lower tines of the silage forks are made of strong forged steel. During use the tines will wear down and
also sharpen. The lower tines are replaceable, spare parts are available from your AVANT dealer.
