Maintenance
Lubrication
To reduce the wear caused by the friction caused by the moving parts of the equipment,
it is necessary to carry out a proper lubrication, as indicated below:
1) Every 24 hours of service, lubricate every grease fitting.
• Be sure about the lubricant quality in relation to its efficiency and purity, avoiding the
use of products contaminated by water, dirt or others.
• Remove the remainder old grease around the articulations.
• Clean the grease fittings with a cloth before inserting lubricant and replace the
damaged ones.
• Introduce enough amount of new grease.
• Use medium consistency grease.
2) The lubrication of the roller bearings should be done in the same aforementioned
period (24 hours).
2.1) The roller bearings with oil bath works in constant lubrication, but it is still necessary
to give them the following attention:
• In a flat place, check the oil level of each bearing before using the disk harrow for the
first time and every day of the first week.
• Then, start to check weekly.
• Change all the oil every 1,000 operating hours.
• Use SAE 90 mineral oil only.
2.2) DMO bearings do not need maintenance.
The suitable level is when the oil
reaches the hole of the plug, being
the disk harrow in a flat place.
The oil volume on the DM bearings is
190 ml (except for the ATCRL model,
which volume is 110 ml).
NOTE
Duromark steel-plated bearing.
Assembled with a high-performance
lubricant, the Duromark steel-plated
bearing do not have a plug since
there is no need to refill it, avoiding
the risk of mixing incompatible
lubricants.
