markings at all times. McHale recommend the use of only top quality chain oil and
grease, this will prolong the life of the machine components. A grease cartridge is
required after every 300 bales approximately. On the control box, an alarm is provided to
remind the operator to change the grease cartridge and top up the lubrication oil after a
preset number of cycles. This counts down from 300 and gives a reminder at zero. It may
be reset sooner, if desired, from within the control box sub menus. (See ‘Lube count’)
To add oil:
1. Unscrew the top cap and add chain oil to the oil reservoir tank (A), up to the
maximum level mark shown. (McHale recommend a good quality high
viscosity chain oil with good tack adhesion (ISO 150 - ISO 200)).
2. Replace the cap and tighten fully.

WARNING: Ensure the tractor is shut down before adding oil
Ensure that the tractor engine has been shut down, the key has been
removed from the ignition and the brakes have been applied before
adding oil.
NOTE: Oil in the reservoir tank should always be clean
The oil in the oil reservoir tank should always be clean, strained and free
of any impurities during top-up, as this will ensure proper operation and
lubrication.
