it is necessary to lubricate it properly, as indicated below.
Every 24 hours of operation, lubricate the articulations through the grease fittings in
the following way:
• Be sure about the lubricant quality regarding its efficiency and purity, avoiding the
use of products contaminated by water, earth and others.
• Remove the remainder old grease around the articulations.
• Clean the grease fittings with a cloth before inserting lubricant and replace the
defective ones.
• Introduce an enough amount of new grease.
• Use medium consistency grease.
• CARDAN SHAFTS: Grease the universal joints daily and make sure the tube and
shaft are protected with grease.
• Clean the cardan shaft every 15 days or before, if required.
• Remove the protective covers.
• Separate "male" and "female", wash and remove crusts, dry, lubricate sliding points
