harvest season) the following components must be
checked and replaced if necessary:

Fig. 68
Snapping plates
When cleaning the machine, move the snapping
plates regularly to remove dust and harvest residue
from the slide channels.
If the machine is treated with water, remove the
chain guides, clean the slide area of the snapping
plates and protect against rust.
The swivel points should be oiled or greased.

Feeder chains
We recommend protecting the feeder chains against
rust when storing the machine.
Either choose the correct storage or protect the
chains against rust with suitable oil.
In the following season, the chain should be fitted
right / left swapped, in order to achieve equal wear.
