Lubrication
Correct maintenance and lubrication prolong the life of the
machine.
The engine of your machine has a running-in period of 5
work hours. After 5 hours the engine oil must be changed.
After this the oil must be replaced for every 20 hours or at
least once a year. Always check the oil level before using the
machine.
If there are any signs of leakage or moist places the oil must
be checked immediately.
Gearbox (see illustration 12-A)
Always check the gear oil level before using the machine.
Refill with SAE 90 gear oil if necessary.
The gear oil should be changed at least once a year or for
every 200 operational hours. Use an oil change kit and add
around 1.2 litre of new gear oil. The gear of the rotary tiller
must also be checked for every 50 hours and changed once
a year. Use the same oil as for the gear box.
Quick coupler (see illustration 12-B)
To lubricate the quick coupling, do the following:
1. Insert grease gun on the grease nipple.
2. Top up grease - 1 to 2 presses.
Storage
•
If the machine is likely to be stored unused for prolonged
periods, follow the instructions below. This will ensure
longer machine lifetime.
•
Use a garden hose to wash off soil and dirt. The chassis
number should only be cleaned with a damp cloth to
avoid unnecessary wear. Avoid using a high-pressure
washer during cleaning.
•
Wipe the machine with a damp cloth so that all surfaces
are clean. Wipe the surfaces down with an oily cloth to
prevent rust.
•
Always store the machine in a dry, clean location.
