Lubricate the driving chain after every 40 operation hours.
To lubricate the driving chain use grease suitable for high temperature (it should not melt as common low-price lithium
grease) in order to prevent grease contamination of the sliding clutch surfaces. Strictly use special spray lubricant for link
chains. Provide regular maintenance of the drive chain by removing any eventual residual dirt before greasing it.
BE AWARE: Do not grease the clutch lining because this may lead to a
significant reduction of the line pull and in this case you may be forced
to replace the clutch plates!
All other bearings are self-lubricating ones that require no further lubrication or maintenance.
Provide PTO shaft lubrication in accordance with the instructions of the manufacturer (Fig. 10).
6.8 Checking the hydraulic oil
Perform periodical oil temp checks during operation. Should the
oil temp exceed 70°C, stop the motor, search for the possible cau-
ses and fix the overheating problem before continuing to work.
BEWARE: longterm overheating may permanently damage your
winch hydraulics.
