10.4.8 Checking cutterbar oil level
Before checking that the discs rotate freely by hand:
- Regularly check the cutterbar oil level:
• Place the cutterbar in horizontal position
(with regards to X and Y axis).
• Remove filler plug (1) and (2) as well as their
seals.
• Through filler plugs, check that the oil level (h) is
comprised between 6 and 7 mm (0.23’’ - 0.27’’).
• Top up if necessary.
• Clean and reinstall filler plugs and their seals (1)
and (2) (replace them if necessary).
- If in doubt as to the oil quantity contained in the
cutterbar, fully drain and refill cutterbar respecting
recommended oil quantity and quality.
If it is found that the transmission case is very hot
to touch by hand, there is no cause of alarm
provided:
• Lubrication recommendations have been
respected.
• Discs can be rotated freely by hand when the
machine is hot.
