Cutterbar draining and refilling
From the transport position:
- Place a container of sufficient capacity under drain
plug.
- Remove filler plug (1) and its washer.
- Remove drain plug (2) and its washer.
- Allow oil to drain completely.
- Wait for dripping to stop.
- Clean and reinstall drain plug (2) and its
washer. Replace if necessary.
- Pour the correct oil quantity and quality through the
opening of the filler plug.
- Clean and reinstall filler plug (1) and its
washer. Replace if necessary.
Before draining oil, operate the machine for a
few minutes so that the oil warms up.
The cutterbar is lubricated with 2.25 L (0.59 US gal) of extreme-pressure gear oil with viscosity grade
SAE 80W90 and API grade GL5.
When draining and refilling, it is recommended to use either a mineral base oil with viscosity grade SAE
80W90 and API grade GL5, or a synthetic base oil, type PAO (Poly-Alpha-Olefins) with a viscosity grade
equivalent to SAE 80W90.
Never use an oil of viscosity SAE 90 in the
cutterbar.
