Maintenance
General
We would ask that you turn to your distributor for assistance with more demanding
maintenance tasks. The tasks listed below are those which often most conveniently
performed on farm premises. Read the instructions carefully. Following the instructions
and your TUME drill will function impeccably year after year. Non-compliance with the
instructions will lead to the voiding of the warranty.
WARNING!
Always turn off the tractor engine before staring maintenance
and set the hand brake on. Ensure that no other person is
able to turn the engine on during maintenance or actuate
control equipment during maintenance or repair work.
WARNING!
When heated, coated surfaces may emit vapors that are
harmful to human health. Ensure that work premises are
properly ventilated, for example during welding. Remove the
paint from surfaces to be welded.
Typical maintenance measures
Tume KL-series drill has robust design and it will serve for many years when
maintenance is carried out correctly. Due to the vibrations during the sowing, it is
possible that bolts and nuts might get loose so is important to regularly check that all
are tightened well. Make also sure that chains and sprockets are in good condition and
chain tensions are right.
There comes natural wear during the life time of the machine. Worn parts can reduce
the quality of the sowing or cause damage to the drill. Before starting the sowing always
check the drill for worn or damaged parts and replace them immediately.
Ordering spare parts
Spare parts needed for the machine can be ordered either through your distributor or
from the original manufacturer. Please identify the spare part number required before
placing an order - this can be found in the spare parts list supplied with the machine.
This will ensure the delivery of the correct part.
