MACHINE MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS
Observe the safety instructions for treatment and maintenance.
If it is necessary to weld during the repair and have the machine connected to the tractor, it must have
disconnected supply cables from the alternator and the accumulator.
Check the tightening of all screw and other assembly connections at the machine before every use of the
machine, furthermore continuously as needed.
Continuously check the wear of the working bodies of the machine, possibly replace these worn working
bodies with new ones.
Adjustment, cleaning, and lubrication of the machine may only be performed with the machine at rest (i.e.
the machine is standing and not working).
When working on a lifted machine, use suitable support equipment supported at marked points or at points
suitable for that.
During adjustment, cleaning, maintenance, and repair of the machine, you must secure those parts of the
machine that could endanger the operator by falling or another movement.
For catching the machine during handling using lifting equipment, use only the places marked with self-
adhesive labels with the chain sign "
".
Upon a failure or damage of the machine, immediately turn off the tractor's engine and secure against
restarting, secure the machine against movement
only then you can remove the failure.
During repairs of the machine, use exclusively the genuine spare parts, suitable tools and protective
equipment.
Regularly check the prescribed pressure in the machine tyres and the condition of the tyres. Perform
possible repairs of the tyres in an expert workshop.
Keep the machine clean.
Do not clean hydraulic cylinders and bearings with a high-pressure cleaner or direct water stream. The
seals and bearings are not watertight at high pressure.
Tightening and securing the disc bearings
First of all, tighten the screw nut and move the block around so that the bearings fit in the block. After that
release the screw nut and tighten it again by 32Nm pulling torque. Furthermore, the screw nut has to be secured
by snapping it into the shaft groove.
