LUBRICATION
To drain oil, remove magnetic drain plug (C) (photo
42) located underneath the cutterbar below the bevel
gearbox. Clean all metal particles off the magnetic
drain plug before refitting.
IMPORTANT : It is very important that the oil in the
bevel gearbox and the cutterbar be changed after
the first ten hours of use with SAE 80 W EP (GL4)
OIL. Thereafter, it should be changed every 200
hours of use or at least once per year.
NOTE : Oil should be drained immediately after use
while still warm.
The pressure relief valve (A) (photo 41) located on
the side of the bevel gearbox must also be unscrewed
and cleaned after the first ten hours and thereafter
should be checked and cleaned regularly. The ball
detent must be free to relieve pressure.
BEVEL GEARBOX
Check oil level once a day. Add oil through filler plug
(B) (photo 41) if required.
Maximum oil capacity of this gearbox :
0.25 litre - 0.5 US pint - 0.5 Imp. pint
Plug (C) serves as a check plug when the bar is
horizontal. Remove plug (C). When oil level is
correct, it will just begin to flow out of the hole. Plug
(C) is also used as a drain plug when the cutterbar is
in the vertical transport position. Let old oil drain into
an appropriate container.
CUTTERBAR
Check oil level once a day. Add SAE 80 W EP (GL4)
oil to the cutterbar at fill plug (A) (photo 42). The oil
level is correct when oil flows out of the fill plug hole.
Note : Make sure the cutterbar is in the vertical
position when checking or adding oil.
CUTTERBAR OIL CAPACITY :
GMD 44 SELECT : 1.75 litres - 3.75 US pints -

NOTE : Provided above intructions are strictly
observed, there is no cause for alarm if it is found that
the transmission case is very hot to touch, provided
that the discs turn freely by hand. The normal
operating temperature can be up to 90°.
CAUTION : BEFORE CARRYING OUT SERVICE OR ADJUSTMENTS TO THIS MACHINE,
