HEADER LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE
PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE PAYS!
The handling and spreading of compost is a most severe operation with respect to metal corrosion. Establish a
frequent, periodic preventative maintenance program to prevent rapid damage to spreading equipment. Proper
cleaning, lubrication and maintenance will give you longer life, more satisfactory service and more economical use
of your equipment.
WARNING
Shut off all power and allow all moving parts to come to rest before performing any
maintenance operation.

HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
Proper oil in the hydraulic system is one of the most important factors for satisfactory operation. Utmost cleanliness
in handling the oil cannot be stressed enough. Keep hydraulic oil in original closed containers, clean top of container
before opening and pouring, and handle in extremely clean measures and funnels.
Refer to
Lubricant and Hydraulic Oil Specifications
section for selection of the proper hydraulic fluid for use in the
hydraulic system.
Service Schedule
WARNING
DO NOT check leaks with hands while system is operating as high pressure oil leaks can be
dangerous! If skin is pierced with hydraulic fluid at high pressure seek immediate medical
attention as fluid injected into the skin could cause gangrene if left untreated. Relieve
pressure before disconnecting hydraulic lines or working system. Make sure all hydraulic
fluid connections are tight and all hydraulic hoses and lines are in good condition before
applying pressure to the system. Wear protective gloves and safety glasses or goggles when
working with hydraulic systems.
WARNING
DO NOT check for leaks adjacent to moving parts while system is operating as there may be
danger of entanglement!
1. Check hydraulic oil daily by means of sight gauge on reservoir. Add oil as necessary to maintain level around
mid-point of sight gauge. Periodically inspect hoses and fittings for leaks.
NOTICE! 2. Change hydraulic oil filter after first week (or not more than 50 hours) of operation on a unit.
3. After first filter change, replace filter when indicator reaches Red Zone.
4. Drain reservoir through drain plug (not through suction outlet), flush, and refill and change filter element
annually. Oil and filter should also be changed whenever oil shows any signs of breaking down under
continued high-pressure operation. Discoloration of oil is one sign of breakdown.
CONVEYOR GEAR CASE
Drain oil in a new unit after first two weeks (or not more than 100 hours) of operation, and flush gear case thor-
oughly with light oil. Refer to
Lubricant and Hydraulic Oil Specifications
section for proper grade oil. Refill gear case
with 1-1/2 pints (.70 liters) of recommended lubricant. After initial change, oil should be changed every 2,000 hours
of operation or annually, whichever occurs first.
Check gear case oil level monthly.
