Lubricating the
cardan shaft
All of the fittings for lubrication must be greased after they have been
cleaned with the high-pressure cleaner.
The manufacturer's own operating manual is attached to each cardan
shaft. This includes detailed information on the relevant version of the
cardan shaft and must be observed.
Checking the guard components
Check all guard components of the cardan shafts for wear or damage
(visual inspection). Replace any defective guard components. An un-
guarded cardan shaft or damaged guard components can cause very
serious injuries in operation.
6 lubrication points are located on the cardan shaft pipe.
> Remove the cardan shaft.
> Lubricate the cardan shaft lubrication points every 500 bales.
> Lubricate the 2 pivots on the cardan shaft well before putting the
implement into operation.
> After every 500 bales, check that the cardan shaft pipe is sufficient-
ly lubricated.
