Service & Maintenance
–
Every 8 hours
Dismantle and clean the main input P.T.O shafts sliding surfaces and
regrease; failure to do this will result in serious damage to the splitter
gearbox.
Grease all universal joints, (Fig. 10) paying particular attention to the constant
velocity joint. If under-greased this constant velocity joint will soon fail.
Grease the wing drive shaft tubes, (note the hole in the plastic tubing for
access).
Lubricate the retaining collar on all the drive shaft guards (Fig. 10).
Grease PTO inner tube and push pins (Fig. 10).
Check all bolts are tightened to the correct Torque (Fig.11).

For maximum life and performance, the CV body must be greased regularly. Lubricate with
the driveline in a straight position - up to 30 pumps of grease may be required.
The metal drive tubes must be greased to operate properly.
Shielding is subject to damage from abuse and weathering. Replace all damaged
components and all shielding removed during maintenance.
Do not use PTO adapters with CV drivelines. Replace special taper pin bolts only with
genuine OEM parts, periodically check tightness of nuts.
