After 10 operating hours
Retighten all screw and plug-in
connections as well as the hydraulic
connections.
Even firmly tightened screw connections can come loose (e.g.
because of material settlement or paint residues between the
screw elements). This can lead to loose screw connections
and leaking hydraulic connections.

WARNING
Lower all hydraulically lifted parts (e.g. wings, packer, undercarriage,
etc.) to the ground before performing any work on the hydraulic system.
Depressurise the hydraulics on the tractor and implement side! Empty
the pressure accumulators.
Allow hydraulic oil and hydraulic components heated during operation to
cool down before any work on the hydraulic system.

Hydraulic system and components
Check all hydraulic components and hoses for function,
leak tightness, fastening and chafing

Hydraulic hoses
Check the hydraulic hoses regularly for damage (cracks, chafing, etc.).
Replace damaged and faulty hoses immediately.
Hydraulic hoses must be replaced after 6 years. For this purpose pay
attention to the manufacturing date on the crimp sleeve (year/month)
and the hose (quarter/year):

Hose
Depending on the conditions of use (e.g. weather influences) or in case
of higher strains on the machine the hoses may need to be replaced
earlier.
Have the hydraulic system checked by an expert at least once every
year.
In addition follow the country specific regulations and directives.
