MAINTENANCE
Lubrication
Washing your machine:
Grease all your machine and optional parts after each time you wash your machine.
Hydraulic Hoses
Carefully check condition of all hoses during routine service paying particular attention
to chafed outer casing. Secure wrap with waterproof adhesive tape to stop the metal
braid from rusting
Daily inspect all hydraulic hoses and fittings to be in good order. Any damages or leaks
must be rectified immediately; this is part of the daily maintenance and is your
responsibility, to unsure a long reliable working life
Hoses with damaged metal braid should be replaced. When replacing hoses quote
number stamped on fitting at one end. The GreenTec hydraulic system works at very
high pressure, when replacing hoses use only genuine hoses, a burst hose could be
very dangerous.
When replacing hoses to avoid twisting fitting, use two spanners to slacken and tighten
Always check the black protective sleeve is in good order, to replace sleeve is far cheaper
than replacing expensive hoses.
Hose warranty is limited to replacement of hoses due to faulty materials or manufacture
Warranty will not be considered on hoses damaged by chafing, abrasion, cuts or pinching
while in work, or to damaged threads due to over tightening.
WARNING
Hose is weakened when installed in twisted
position. Also, pressure pulses in twisted
hose tend to fatigue wire and loosen fitting
connections. Design so that machine
motion produces bending rather than
torsion.
