7 MAINTENANCE
• Correct machine servicing is necessary with a view to
reliable and safe working.
7.1
Maintenance after operations
- Clean the machine thoroughly.
- Grease the machine with a rust preventive.
- 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
- PTO shafts to be greased every 8 working hours by the grease
nipples on the cross assemblies, protection tubes and the slip
clutch (fig. 15).
- Profiled tubes of the PTO shafts to be greased every 8 working
hours (fig. 15).
- Gears in the gearbox over the rotor A (fig. 16) to be greased every
8 working hours. When greasing, keep turning the rotor bit by bit
ensuring effective distribution of grease all over the gears.
- Bearing blocks B of the drive shaft extension to be greased every
8 working hours.
