Cleaning the attachment 

Clean the attachment regularly to prevent accumulation of dirt which is more difficult to remove. A pressure 

washer and mild detergent can be used for cleaning. Do not use strong solvents, and do not spray directly at 

the hydraulic components, or at the labels on the attachment. 

 

7.3

 

Lubrication 

 

There are lubricating points at the bearings of the 

roller and the flail shaft. 
Appropriate lubrication interval depends heavily 

on operating conditions, but lubricant  must be 

added at least after every 10 hours of use. 

Adequate lubrication must be ensured, and if the 

bearings are dirty, lubricant must be added; added 

lubricant will push out dirt. 
Clean the end of the nipple before greasing and 

add only a small amount of grease at a time. All 

lubrication nipples are standard R1/8" nipples. 

Replace any damaged nipples. 

 

 

 

7.4

 

Inspection of metal structures 

Also the metal structures of the attachment must be inspected regularly. Check visually for damages and 

inspect the quick attach brackets and their surrounding area carefully. The attachment must not be used if it is 

deformed, cracked, or torn. 
Welding repairs are only allowed to be carried out by professional welders. When welding, only methods and 

additives suited for steel used in attachment must be used. For more information about repairs contact your 

nearest service point.
