11 - Maintenance
(*note 8 mod. hi)
Operations to be carried out in order to maintain the machine in good working conditions:
- Before using the machine:
1. Check the screws tightening of the three-point linkage frame and the good state of repair of
the pins and the safety pins of the connection arms.
2. Check that the screws are tight, in particular check that the hoes screws are intact, if while
working they break, it is necessary to stop working and replace them.
3. Check the level of the lubricant oil in the gear-box (only in the models MTZ 135-150-170-190)
through the transparent cap put on gear box side (Fig. 15 – Ref. A); the quantity of oil is
enough if it is visible through the cap.If you need to fill oil up,use the cap put on the upper part
of the gear box (Fig. 15 – Ref. B).
- Regularly:
Lubricate the universal joint spider (Fig. 18 – Ref. A) and the other cardan elements as indicated in
the instruction booklet, through the greasers.
- At the beginning of the working season:
1. Grease the roller supports (Fig. 16 - Ref. A).
2. Check the grease level in the tank using the specially provided cap (Fig. 17 – Ref. A); this
must be made when the machine has worked for several minutes.
During the maintenance operations wear protective gloves; for the lubrification/greasing
operations always wear nitrile gloves and protective glasses
If the maintenance is made on a raised plane (for example on a workbench), always wear safety
shoes.
All the maintenance work must be performed
with the tractor off and the key off.
