All universal crosses and bearings in the plastic tubes of the PTO shaft are to be lubricated every 8

-10 hours of operation. Profile tubes should be separated, cleaned and lubricated after 40 hours use. Use lithium grease.

NOTICE

Regularly check the driveline. Any damage or lack of lubrication to the hollow shaft may cause the PTO shaft on the tractor or machine to be damaged beyond repair.

During still periods (one week or more): Wash and lubricate the machine, spray it with a thin layer of rust protecting oil - especially important at cutting discs.

The hydraulic lifting cylinder of the machine: During prolonged storage press the piston rod into the piston housing (remove the complete lifting cylinder at the connection link on the gearbox), or coat the exposed surface of piston rod with grease.
