Winter storage
When the season is finished, preparation for winter storage should take place immediately. Start
by thoroughly cleaning the machine, - then grease the machine thoroughly so that any remaining
water is pressed out of the bearings. Change the oil in cutterbar and gearbox and let the machine
rotate for a few minutes.
Go over the machine for wear and other defects, - make a note of the necessary parts required for
the next season and place your order for spare parts.
Observe the safety instructions of the machine. The winter storage operations must
only be carried out by competent persons with experience of working with agricultural
machinery in a secure and responsible way.
Pre-winter storage procedure:
•
Check all points mentioned in the MAINTENANCE part shown at page 49. Especially pay
attention to the cones of the cutterbar and the vertical universal joint in the left hand side.
•
Check the cutting discs for wear. The central cutting discs can be interchanged, so that they get
the opposite direction of rotation.
•
Also check the gear wheel of the cutterbar for wear by removing one collar bearing in the left
hand side (maximum load). Also check bearing back-lash. Repair of the cutterbar, - see page
69.
•
Check rotors and Y-fingers for damaged. Replace if necessary.
•
Check chain transmission for wear. Also check the splined shafts of the chain wheel.
•
Always ensure that the machine safety equipment is not worn or damaged, e.g. drive shaft
profile tube, guards for rotating parts, tarpaulin screens.
•
Push the hydraulic pistons into the cylinders. Remove split-pinned bolts if necessary.
•
Sprinkle a thin coat of rust preventing oil all over the machine. This is especially important on
all parts polished with use. Store the machine into an aerated house.
