Preventive Maintenance 47
N
OTE
:
When lubricating the following parts: the operating valve control lever, the inside and outside
bearing housing, the carrier panel cylinder end, packer panel cylinder rod ends, rollers, and
the optional control levers, the packer panel must be in the home position.
N
OTE
:
Control levers and the operating valve control lever require frequent inspection and
lubrication as necessary to be in prime working condition. Remove the top cover for access to
lube points.
N
OTE
:
Move roller track access covers to grease roller.
N
OTE
:
Rollers need lubrication, roller tracks do not. Grease on the tracks will cause the rollers to
slide. Keep the tracks clean and dry.
Hydraulic System Service
Proper maintenance of the hydraulic components is of
vital importance to the service life of the
system and the
operation of the unit as a whole.
Checking Fluid Level (Daily)
Place the carrier and packer panels in the “interrupted cycle” position and fully retract the pushout
cylinder to check the fluid level (see Figure 5-1, #1). When checking the fluid level in the hydraulic
tank, also note any frequent or sudden loss of fluid. This may indicate leakage, which must be traced
and corrected to avert equipment failure and possible damage to other components.
If low, fill the hydraulic tank to the “NORMAL FILL LEVEL” with hydraulic fluid as specified in the
Leach Hydraulic Fluid Recommendation
section on page 42 according to operating and weather
conditions.
Checking Tank Breather Cap (Weekly)
Check the tank breather cap (see Figure 5-1, #2) every week to make sure that it is not clogged. If
clogged, replace it with a new one.
