Cleaning
Switch off the tractor PTO shaft drive.
Use the tractor's hydraulic control device to fold the machine into
its work position.
Leave the machine coupled to the tractor's lower links.
Lock the tractor's hydraulic control device.
Switch off the tractor and secure it.
Remove the ignition key.
Do not clean the bearings and piston rods of hydraulic cylinders
using a high-pressure cleaner.
After each use, clean the machine of any coarse dirt and crop
residue.
Cleaning with solvents may lead to corrosion.
After cleaning
Lubricate all bearings after cleaning.
Care
For a long machine service life, we recommend:
applying a protective layer of oil to all bright work tools. Only use
approved, biodegradable oil, e.g. rapeseed oil.
Repair any paint damage.
