Your new combine is intended to give many years of problem-free harvesting. Preventive
maintenance and regular service is the best way to avoid problems before they occur. Only
properly trained personnel should service or repair the machine. Follow the guidelines before
beginning any work on the combine:
WARNING!
To prevent injury, never lubricate or service combine, header, or engine while it is
running. Stop the machine, set parking brake, turn engine off, and remove key.
WARNING!
Shock hazards can cause serious injury or death. Only qualified personnel should
service electrical systems.
- Shut off the engine and disconnect the battery before opening electrical access panels to change
fuses, relays, switches, etc.
- Disconnect all electronic equipment (Seed Spector, printer, hand-held computer, Automated
Seed Packager, etc.) before jump starting or welding on machine.
WARNING!
High pressure fluids can cause serious injury. Release pressure before
disconnecting hydraulic lines or servicing system.
