The accompanying illustrations show lubrication points. The chart gives the frequency of
lubrication in hours, based on normal operating conditions. Severe or unusual
conditions may require more frequent lubrication.
Use a good quality SAE multipurpose type grease for all locations shown. Be sure to
clean fittings thoroughly before using grease gun.
Use 90 wt. or 140 wt. gear oil in gearbox.
Important: Check hardware tightness on the tines after the first two, five and ten hours
of operation. As these components set in with use, the attaching bolts may loosen.
Hourly or whenever an obstacle is hit:
Check the conditions of the tines, joints, rotors and gearboxes.
Every 8 hours:
