Maintenance
Perform general lubrication every 10 hours
of operation or before and after intermediate
use (before and after seasonal harvests)
unless otherwise specified. Severe or
unusual conditions may require more
frequent lubrication.
The following illustrations show the
lubrication points on the unit. Prior to using
grease gun, clean the grease fitting. Replace
lost and broken grease fittings immediately.
Grease fitting locations:
1. Gauge wheels adjusters at 1 place on
each end. See Figure 20.
2. Pickup raise / lower pivot pins at 1
place on each end. See Figure 21.
3. Wheel clutches at outer housings
within wheel well on each side. See
Figure 22.
Inspect pickup/cylinder tines and tine bar
guards daily for damage. Replace damaged
tines immediately to prevent further damage
to other tines and the tine bar assembly.
