6.2. Daily maintenance
Everyday after work please carry out the following maintenance:
check all visible units and parts and their connections; tighten all loose bolts and nuts and
replace all damaged and/or worn parts with new genuine ones,
clean the tedder each day after working,
remove grass and mud,
check the rotors,
grease PTO shaft tubes with STP grease,
if necessary, lubricate the parts and units according to lubrication instructions (chapter 7).
6.3. After-season maintenance and storing
It is recommended for the operator to wear protective gloves when performing maintenance works.
At the end of the season the tedder should be cleaned, washed and dried. Carefully grease
unpainted surfaces and 3-point linkage pins. After that the following work should be carried out:
remove any traces of rust and paint the area affected,
check lubrication of intersecting axis gears (chapter. 7). If leaks occur, remove them
immediately,
periodically check the tedder and secure the moving parts with grease to prevent the tedder from
rust, which affects the proper functioning of the machine,
regularly check hydraulic hoses. In case of damage or expiry replace with new ones. Expiry
period should not exceed 5 years.
The detached machine should be stored in standstill position, so it is supported onto a protected
support leg. It is recommended to store the set on paved ground, preferably in roofed places,
inaccessible to unauthorized personnel or animals.

Torque values for bolts
In the absence of specific torque values, the following chart can be used as a guide to the
maximum safe torque for a particular size and grade of fastener. There is no torque difference for
fine or coarse threads. Torque values are based on clean, dry threads. Reduce value by 10% if
threads are oiled before assembly.
