Some of the above tasks depend greatly on the type of use and the ambient
conditions.
The cycles indicated above are the minimum requirement. Different maintenance
cycles may be needed in individual cases.
In this case:
- Correct the values given in these operating instructions.
- Inform operating personnel about the applicable changes.
Frame:
Check the suspension, axle mountings and screw connections every day and re-tighten if necessary.
If technical changes are found in the springs or too much play on the bearing bolts, rectify the problem
immediately. Check the mounting bolts on the drawbar eye after the first 10 operating hours, then check
every 50 operating hours to ensure they are firmly seated and re-tighten if necessary.
Axles:
The following excess strain shortens the service life of the bearings and leads to axle damage:
- Driving over edges
- Excessively high driving speeds
Adjusting the wheel hub bearings:
The ideal axial play for the wheel hub bearings is between 0.02 and 0.05 mm.
1. To adjust the wheel bearings, take off the wheel caps and remove the safety cotter pin or safety
spring cotter.
2. Tighten the castle nut while simultaneously turning the wheel hub until you feel slight resistance.
3. Turn the axle nut back to the next cotter pin hole and re-tighten.
4. Check the running of the wheel bearing, and check for rocking. The wheel must not offer any
resistance when turned and there should be no noticeable rocking at the wheel rim or brake
drum.
5. Re-apply the wheel cap.
Never drive without wheel caps as penetrating water and dust will destroy the bearings.
