13. Maintenance
Steps to be carried out in order to maintain the machine in good
working condition:
• Check the correct connection of the universal joint shaft and the
safety devices!
Attention:
Depending on availability, LIPCO Reversing Harrow can be
equipped with cardan shafts from different manufacturers
(Walterscheid or Wiesler ..etc.).
The friction clutch built into the cardan shaft is a safety
component and must be handled with care.
• When using the LIPCO Reversing Harrow machine for the first
time, the PTO shaft operating instructions attached to the PTO
shaft must be removed and read carefully.
When the LIPCO Reversing Harrow is used for the first time /
after a longer stop, the friction clutch must be checked for
functionality.
To do this, the friction clutch must be released, turned by hand
and then tensioned again.
More details on checking the friction clutch can be found in the
operating instructions of the respective manufacturer.
Note:
If the friction clutch does not function properly, it may cause
serious damage to the machine if it is not released in the event
of an overload.
• Grease the roller bearings! (Fig. 9)
• Lubricate the lateral adjustment! (Fig. 7)
• Lubricate the universal joint shaft before start-up and every 8
operating hours with proprietary grease and check the smooth
running of the sliding profiles. In winter, the protective tubes have
to be greased in order to avoid freezing! (See lubrication plan
