Note
C)
If the agitators are overgreased, a high pressure might restrict the rotation of the
agitator bearing. If this is the case the lubricator nipple must be demounted, which
will release the pressure. Grease sparingly – e.g. one pump/season.
PARTS GREASED ONCE:
The central and angle gears are filled with special grease and needs
no lubrication.
GENERAL
A new machine will always ”move” a little bit in all nuts +bolts.
Therefore all nuts and bolts of the machine must be retightened
- first time it is put into operation - after 5 to 8 hours’ operation.
Exception is the bolts in the central and angle gears – these are
locked with lock-tite.
Be aware that stainless nuts + bolts might ”weld together” When
mounting such bolts – the thread must be greased with cutting
lubricant or copper grease !
SPREADING VANES
The spreading vanes are manufactured of high quality manganese
steel, MN12.
(MN 12 has a hardness corresponding to 3 times the hardness of
stainless steel)
.
But still the vanes will be worn due to modern and abrasive fertilisers.
Therefore the vanes must be considered a wear part – that must be
exchanged dependent on the quantity / type of fertiliser.
Always clean contact surfaces of the vanes and the spreading
disc for dust etc – before mounting and tightening the vane !
IF HOLES ARE WORN IN THE VANES THEY MUST BE
EXCHANGED AT ONCE!
