4 .3 .1 Shearing drive
Does not require lubrication.
4 .3 .2 Flexible shaft
Before each operation
Oil the flexible shaft before each use, but at least once when changing the blade.
After 100 hours of operation
The flexible shaft is equipped with sealed and permanently lubricated ball bearings. However, the rotating inner shaft must be re-greased at
regular intervals (after approx. 100 operating hours or every 2 years). To do this, disassemble the outer shaft to first remove the old grease
residues from the inner shaft. Then grease the entire length of the inner shaft again with fresh, high-quality mineral grease.
4 .3 .3 Shearing handle
See the operating instructions for the shearing handle.
4 .4 Storing the machine
Make it a habit to always keep the shearing equipment well cleaned between uses, in a dry and clean place, out of the reach of children.
