• To reach the points indicated, some protective covers and shields as well as the seed reservoir
will have to be removed. (If necessary, read § 15.1 Removing the protective covers and § 9.7
(Dis)mounting the seed reservoir)
• The bearings have dust seals to keep the dirt out. However, the lubricant applied on the
bearing at the factory will also become old and dry. To compensate this lack of lubricant, new
lubricant must be added from outside.
• To prevent any dirt from penetrating the bearing together with the lubricant, the bearing must
be cleaned first.
• Spray NOVATIO KLEENSPRAY onto the bearing seals and joints. The liquid will soak off any
dust attached to the bearing.
• Leave the cleaning liquid to work for a few minutes.
• Remove all the dirt clinging to the bearing with a soft cloth.
• Apply a second round of spray to the bearings, particularly on the joints. The cleaner will
dissolve the grease that has dried op in the joint. This is necessary to ensure that new grease
can penetrate the joint.
• Blow compressed air into the bearing joints to enable the KLEENSPRAY to expel all the dirt.
• Wipe away all the spray and wait 10 minutes to allow any residue to evaporate.
• Now apply a new layer of lubricant. Spray good amounts of NOVATIO PTFE OIL into the joints
of the bearing seals and the bearing bushing.
• This is a thin lubricant with great penetrating properties. It is corrosion resistant and moisture
and dust repellent and also has great lubricating properties, even at high temperatures.
11.4.2.4 Lubricating the chain and chain wheels
Because chains have a high rotation speed and don’t run through an oil reservoir, after some
operating hours the applied chain lubricant will have been propelled away or be full of dust and
dirt. To avoid wear and tear of chains, they must be lubricated after each operation. The
machine has one Simplex chain for the transmission between the left front roller and the rear
roller and the rotating drum in the seed container.
