11.5 Recommended Lubricants
Keep your machine operating at top efficiency by using only clean lubricants and by ensuring the following:
• Use clean containers to handle all lubricants.
• Store lubricants in an area protected from dust, moisture, and other contaminants.
IMPORTANT:
Do NOT overfill the cutterbar when adding lubricant. Overfilling could result in overheating and failure of cutterbar
components.
