Ring drawbar
Keep the moving parts greased through the grease nipple to avoid wear
and seizing up.
Also grease the contact faces of hitch ring and drawbar clevis.
Articulated drawbar
Keep the moving parts greased through the grease nipple to avoid wear
and seizing up.
In the pivoting axle of the articulated drawbar a second grease nipple is
to be greased.
Also grease the moving parts between pins and lower link balls.
The turnable drawbars, must be greased as per every 100 hours, through
indicated grease nipples.

ATTENTION! The turn stop welded to the ball prevents the
equipment from performing too tight turns that could cause it to
break. Do not force turns beyound this point as this may damage
the drawbar parts.
€
DANGER! Always stop the PTO when taking very tight turns, even
when using a transmission shaft with wide-angle CV joint. Tight
turns with the PTO on may cause the CV or the pump crankshaft
to break and cause major vibrations in the gearbox. This may lead
to damages of the fan or air kit.
