7 MAINTENANCE
• Correct machine servicing is necessary with a view to
reliable and safe working.
7.1
Maintenance after operations
- Clean the machine thoroughly.
- Check the tines and tine arms for tightness and damages, if any.
- Grease the machine with a rust preventive.
Pay special attention to the tines. Smooth tines without any rust
stimulate an unhampered crop flow.
- Grease the piston rods with an anti-corrosion agent if a longer
period of inactivity is anticipated.
Remove the agent when putting the machine back into operation.
If not, sealing of the rams may be affected after hardening of the
anti-corrosion agent.
7.2
Lubrication
All lubrication points of the machine can be greased with a
biodegradable grease (Total Biomultis SEP2), unless stated
otherwise.
- PTO shafts to be greased every 8 working hours by the grease
nipples on the cross assemblies, protection tubes and slip clutch
(fig. 19).
- Profiled tubes of the PTO shaft to be greased every 8 working
hours (fig. 19).
- Gears in the gearbox over the rotor to be greased every 8 working
hours (A, fig. 20). When greasing, keep turning the rotor bit by
bit, ensuring effective distribution of grease all over the gears.
- Bearing block B of the drive shaft extension to be greased every
8 working hours.
