LUBRICATION
7.1.
Risks present when lubricating
To avoid being splashed with pressurized liquid wear protective eyewear with side guards.
When lubricating protect skin against contact with the substance. Therefore use adequate long-
sleeved protective clothing and protective shoes. Use protective gloves, too. In case of a contact
with skin, immediately wash the infected area with plenty of soap water.
Do not allow the product to contaminate water outlets, water courses and soils.
In case of an unintentional release to the environment plug the leak, limit the spillage, and then
collect the oil with non-flammable absorbent material (e.g. sand).
The product is flammable. In case of fire, use adequate fire-extinguishing means (e.g. foam,
water mist, extinguishing powders). Do not use water jets.
Disposal of the used product must be made according to local regulations. Improper disposal of
the used oil poses danger to the environment.

0.3" from the cutterbar bottom. In order to drain oil from the cutterbar dismount the cutterbar
enclosure by releasing bolts (
