8.0 Maintenance
The condition of the legs and the coulters should be regularly monitored in order to maintain the most
efficient use of the machine.
8.1 Greasing
Coulter units –
don’t need greasing
the coulters are mounted on self-lubricating, maintenance-free
plastic flange bushes
Axle lift rams and chassis pivot points –
the chassis to headstock pivots and each end of any ram should
be greased every 10 hrs of work
Chassis wing pivots –
the wing pivots and each end of any ram should be greased every 50 hrs of work
Markers –
the markers have a grease nipple at the pivot, each end of the ram and on top of the disc
bearing
8.2 Spares
When ordering replacement parts please have your serial number, part numbers and quantities at hand.
8.3 Winter storage
When machines are to be parked up for the winter period, correct storage techniques are an important part
of protecting the machine to ensuring a hassle free season. When the machine has finished work it should
be cleaned down and washed off to remove all traces of soil. When washing off, ensure bearings are not
exposed to water ingress.
Following washing off, grease points are located on all rams on auto reset machines and these should
receive two or three pumps of grease.
When the machine is parked up a note should be made of what wearing parts require replacing ready for
the next seasons work. The wearing parts can then be ordered in time ready for the next season’s work in
good time to avoid delays when the machine is required earlier than expected!
