Servicing and maintenance
Gearbox
Before first use check gearbox oil level, thereafter check every 8 hours.
After the first 50 hours drain and replace the gearbox oil, thereafter annually. Replace with EP90.
Regularly inspect gearbox seals. If oil is leaking replace immediately. This is your responsibility to
maintain a long and reliable working life.
Check gearbox bolts are fully tightened.
Warning
Check that all gearbox bolts are tight. When the machine is new there
will be a ‘bedding in’ period when very frequent checking is important.
It is imperative the grub-screws are checked on the taper locks (once
bedded in loctite glue may prove useful).
Never carry out any servicing or maintenance work without first disengaging the
PTO and stopping the tractor.
