Note to the Owner
General instructions
Important notice
All maintenance and repair operations described in this manual should be carried out exclusively by the NEW HOL-
LAND authorised workshops. All instructions detailed should be carefully observed and special equipment indicated
should be used if necessary.
Everyone who carries out service operations described without carefully observing these prescriptions will be directly
responsible of deriving damages.
Shimming
At each adjustment, select adjusting shims, measure them individually using a micrometer and then sum up recorded
values. Do not rely on measuring the whole shimming set, which may be incorrect, or on rated value indicated for
each shim.
Rotating shaft seals
To correctly install rotating shaft seals, observe the following instructions:
• Let the seal soak into the same oil as it will seal for at least half an hour before mounting.
• Thoroughly clean the shaft and ensure that the shaft working surface is not damaged.
• Place the sealing lip towards the fluid. In case of a hydrodynamic lip, consider the shaft rotation direction and orient
grooves in order that they deviate the fluid towards the inner side of the seal.
• Coat the sealing lip with a thin layer of lubricant (oil rather than grease) and fill with grease the gap between the
sealing lip and the dust lip of double lip seals.
• Insert the seal into its seat and press it down using a flat punch. Do no tap the seal with a hammer or a drift.
• Take care to insert the seal perpendicularly to its seat while you are pressing it. Once the seal is settled, ensure
that it contacts the thrust element if required.
• To prevent damaging the sealing lip against the shaft, place a suitable protection during installation.
O-rings
Lubricate the O-rings before inserting them into their seats. This will prevent the O-rings from rolling over and twine
during mounting which will jeopardise sealing.
Sealers
Apply one of the following sealers: RTV SILMATE, RHODORSIL CAF 1, or
L
OCTITE
® P
IASTIC
G
ASKET
over the mating
surfaces marked with an X.
Before applying the sealer, prepare the surface as follows:
• Remove possible scales using a metal brush.
• Thoroughly degrease the surfaces using one of the following cleaning agent: trichlorethylene, petrol or a water and
soda solution.
Bearings
It is advisable to heat the bearings to
80 – 90 °C
(
176 – 194 °F
) before mounting them on their shafts and cool them
down before inserting them into their seats with external tapping.
Roll pins
When fitting straight roll pins, ensure that the pin notch is oriented in the direction of the effort to stress the pin. Coil
roll pins can be installed in any position.
