Care and
maintenance
Observe the care and maintenance intervals
Observe the prescribed intervals and those stated in the operation
manual for recurring checks and inspections. In case of negligence of
the intervals damages to the machine or accidents can be caused.
Use original parts only
Lots of components have special properties which decides for the
stability and the function of the machine. Only the parts and options
delivered from the manufacturer have been tested and released.
Other products can interrupt the function of the machine or can harm
the security. When using not original parts the warranty and liability of
the manufacturer reduces to nil and void.
At all care and maintenance work:
•
make the hydraulics pressureless
•
switch off the engine and remove the ignition key
•
make sure the tractor and machine are positioned on a firm and
level area, support if necessary
•
unhitch the tractor if possible
•
do not use parts of the machine as climbing help, use suitable
climbing helps on the contrary
Only when observing these prescriptions a secured working during
care and maintenance work is guaranteed.
Interrupt electric power supply
Before working on the electrical device, separate this from the electric
power supply. Supplies being charged can cause material or personal
damages.
Exchange hydraulic hoses
Hydraulic hoses can age without external recognizable indications.
We therefore recommend to exchange all hydraulic hoses every six
years. Defective hydraulic hoses can cause heavy or deadly injuries.
Careful when cleaning with high-pressure cleaner
The machine can partly be cleaned with water or steam. Clean
bearings, plastic parts and hydraulic hoses with low pressure only. Too
high pressure can damage these parts.
