4.10 SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
For good performance in corners, when driving
over terraces or through ditches at an angle, or
in hard steer situations it is important to do the
following:
a) The Teflon sliding pads on the boom must
not grab in dynamic situations (corners,
terraces etc). See the photos below for the
location of the sliding pads.
b) Apply grease to the complete surface of all
sliding pads. Manually rotate the boom (by
pushing on the ends) to access the entire
surface of the pads when greasing.
c) Ensure the sprayer operator continues this
maintenance for proper operation.
It is recommended that the pads be
re-coated with grease every 20 hours
of operation.
