LUBRICATION
Gearbox
The gearbox on the machine is filled with 10W/30 oil before it leaves the factory and should not need
topping-off, although it is recommended that the oil level is checked before the machine is used. Change
the oil after the first 200 hours of operation and thereafter every 1600 hours of operation.
Grease Points
All grease points shown in FIGURE 5-1 below should be greased before operating the machine. To make
greasing easier by relieving the weight form the pivot pins, rest the rotor unit on the ground, stop tractor
engine and operate control levers in both directions. Grease daily or every 8 hours of operation. Use a
high quality lithium base #2 grease.
PTO Drive Tubes
Grease PTO square tubes before operating machine. Grease the PTO bearings every 8 hours of operation
