9.6 Wearing parts and bolted connections
9.6.1 Checking wearing parts
Wearing parts are: spreading vanes, agitator head, outlet, hydraulic pipes .

Check the wearing parts.
If these parts show visible signs of wear, deformation or holes, they must be re-
placed, otherwise the spreading pattern will not be correct.
The durability of the wearing parts depends in part on the material spread.
9.6.2 Checking bolted connections
The bolted connections are tightened to the specified torque and locked at the
factory. Vibrations and jerks, in particular during the initial operating hours, can
loosen bolded connections.

Check the new solid fertiliser broadcaster after every 30 operating hours to
make sure all bolted connections are sitting properly.

Check all the bolted connections regularly for tightness, and definitely before
the start of the spreading season.
Some components (e.g. spreading vanes) are mounted with self-locking nuts.
Always use new self-locking nuts when mounting these components.
