10.4.8 Checking cutterbar oil level
- Regularly check the cutterbar oil level:
• Place the cutterbar in horizontal position.
• Check cutter bar horizontal level following axes X
and Y with a spirit level.
• Remove filler plug (1) and (2) as well as their
seals.
• Check, through openings, that the oil height
corresponds to a value (h) comprised between 6
mm (0.24’’) and 7 mm (0.28’’). Top up if
necessary.
• Clean and reinstall filler plugs and their seals (1)
and (2). Replace if necessary.
• If in doubt as to the oil quantity contained in the
cutterbar, fully drain and refill cutterbar respecting
recommended oil quantity and quality.
If it is found that the transmission case is very hot
to touch by hand, there is no cause of alarm
provided:
• Lubrication recommendations have been
respected.
• Discs can be rotated freely by hand when the
machine is hot.
Before checking that the discs rotate freely by hand:
- Turn off the engine, remove ignition key
and wait until all moving parts have come
to a complete stop.
