MACHINE MAINTENANCE
-
All maintenance, cleaning and repair operations must be carried out with
disconnected PTO, engine off and starting key out.
-
Every 8 hours of operation, grease the parts shown in FIG. 36; regularly:
-
Tighten bolts and nuts
-
Check wear and condition of flails
-
Check the safety guards
-
Visually check the frame and arms to detect possible damage caused by earlier
work
-
Check oil, tank and gearbox lubricating levels.
At the end of each working day, grease pins and bearings operating near the
ground, to facilitate the removal of mud or other material and avoid rust and
possible seizure.
-
Every 100 hours of operation, grease the moving parts of the PTO shaft,
extracting the two parts of the shaft.
-
Use grease such as AGIP GR MU EP/2 (classification DIN 51825 (KP 2 K))
