Cleaning
Thorough cleaning will enhance the durability of the machine.
•
The machine can be cleaned with a power cleaner, but do never
aim directly at bearings.
•
Lubricate all nipples after power cleaning.
Lubrication
Use appropriate grease
Only use EP (Extreme Pressure) grease. The use of inappropriate
grease will shorten the lifetime of the bearings.
Lubricate the machine
•
daily when cultivating. This prevents from the ingress of water and
dirt in the bearings and moving parts.
•
after power cleaning.
•
before and after the working season.
> lubricate all lubrication points until some grease appears out of the
bearing.
> remove all excessive grease with a clod. Excessive grease attracts
dust and mud.
