Service & Maintenance

Maintenance Safety Checklist

Follow good shop practices.

Keep service area clean and dry.

Use adequate light for the job at hand.

Never work under equipment unless it is blocked

securely

Parts replacement should be performed by qualified

personnel to ensure safe and complete installation.

A fire extinguisher and first aid kit should be kept

readily accessible.

Always use personal protection devices such as eye,

hand, foot and hearing protectors.

Use heavy gloves when handling heavy or sharp

components.

Ensure wagon is disconnected from the towing

vehicle and wheels are chocked.

Good maintenance is your responsibility. Poor

maintenance is an invitation to trouble.

To keep your CHCF Header wagon in good working

condition, and increase bearing life as well as maintain

ease of operation, periodic lubrication is essential. This

also helps to flush out moisture and dirt.

By following a careful service and maintenance program

for your machine, you will enjoy many years of trouble-

free operation.

Replacement of parts should be done by a qualified

personnel only. Keep a record of all maintenance, to

ensure scheduled inspections and maintenance are

performed.

Wheel Bearings:

Inspect bearings monthly: check for
• Unusual front to back movement or chatter
• Free spinning with no grinding noise.

Replace if required, replacements and repacking should be performed by qualified personnel. For replacement parts and

repacking procedures please call your dealer or contact Horst Wagons.

Wheel bearings should cleaned, re-packed & adjusted, annually, or 1000 hours of operation, which-ever comes first. Use

a premium quality, multipurpose, extreme- pressure (

EP2) calcium sulfonate or equivalent grease for the bearings (NLGI

GC-LB Certified)

•  Check the bearing seal, replace if required
•  Clean and check bearings for wear, replace if required.
•  Clean and check bearing cups, replace if required
