9.4 Drive Chains
9.4.1 Special Safety Instructions
The drive chains are equipped with protective devices. Always reattach or close the protective
devices after completing work on the chains.
9.4.2 General Information
Central lubrication only
The chain lubrication device supplies oil to all drive
chains except for the drive chain on the twin twine guide.
As the lubricating oil lines are not subjected to high
pressure, clogging may occur. For this reason, the
lubricating oil lines should be checked before each use to
ensure proper function. How the central chain lubrication
device operates is explained in the
“Basic Settings and
Operation” section of this booklet.
