9.1 - INTRODUCTION
To obtain the machine's best performances and ensure maximum durability of all its components, the
instructions for use and maintenance must be followed carefully by machine operators.
Therefore, we recommend our customers to carefully read these instructions and consult the manual
any time they need advice on how to eliminate possible inconveniences. As the machine operates
normally in contact with water, sand, earth, etc., regular lubrication is necessary, which assumes vital
importance not only to ensure lengthy use of the machine, but also to keep down its running costs.
