1. Lubrication
The following lubrication points with lubrication nipples are located on the packer trailed implements
of the NE series:
• Shaft bearing, Nockering Roller: underside of the bearing case
• Wheel bearings, transport wheels: cannot be lubricated in every version, sealed-for-life bearings
are partially possible.
Depending on the operating conditions, we recommend lubrication with commercially available roller
bearing grease free of SO2 (e.g. lithium saponified grease) at the following intervals:
• Shaft bearings in each case after 25 – 50 ha, however at least once per season and after removal
of wrappings
• Swivel joints as required, however at least once per day
• All lubrication points before and after winterising and after cleaning the implement with high
pressure water jet
The lubrication points must never run dry.
Never press in excess amounts of grease. One or two grease gun shots are usually sufficient for ball
bearings.
Where seals on shaft bearings are undamaged, the grease requirement is very low. No grease must
discharge from the bearing.
Note:
Carefully press grease into shaft bearings to avoid damage to the bearing seals.

Checks / Maintenance
The following preventive maintenance must be performed regularly:
• Check bolts for tightness from time to time. Tighten all bolts for new implements or after repairs
after the first 10 ha.
• Check pin retainers (clamp sleeves, split pins) for completeness and damage, replace where
necessary
• Check bearings, and especially seals, for damage. Replace bearings if seals are damaged.
• Check wheel bearings for damage and play.
• Check bearings for wrappings. Remove wrappings immediately and lubricate bearings afterwards.
• Keep warning signs on the implement legible; replace if necessary.
• Check air pressure of the transport wheels. Tyres 4.00-8: 5.5 bar, tyres 205/70-15: 3.0 bar.
Maintenance / Repairs
Safety instructions:
• Only carry out maintenance work when the implement is properly parked or attached!
• Ensure for versions with running gear that the part to be maintained is unloaded; use
suitable support elements if necessary!
• Repair work on the tyres and wheels must only be performed by specialists using the
suitable installation tools!
• Collect any discharging greases and dispose of properly!
