Maintenance and Service
Pickup
– Grease the new plastic carriers (6) thoroughly before pushing them into the gear
bush (8).
– The carrier plate (10) and the screw retention (11) must be pre-assembled on the
new hexagonal bolt (M 20x360)(9).
– The preassembled bolt is screwed into the finger roller with 4 hexagon socket head
screws (M12x40) (12). The screws must be locked with medium-strength screw-
locking compound, e.g. Loctite 243, and tightened to 85 Nm.
– Insert the finger roller with the preassembled screw into the pickup. Make sure that
the plastic carriers (6) are engaged with the teeth and the O-ring (7) is not dam-
aged.
– Pull the finger roller with the flat nut (4) (which must be secured with Loctite 243)
against the gearbox to the stop. Loosen the flat nut (4) again, screw it in until it
is flush and then loosen it approx. 1/3 revolution until it is parallel to the threaded
holes of the two grub screws (3).
– Unscrew both grub screws until the position of the flat nut (4) is fixed. Now lock the
flat nut (4) with the lock nut (13) and secure it with Loctite 243.
– Screw thboth grub screws (3) into the shaft to the stop. The hexagonal screw (9)
should have a perceptible longitudinal play of just one millimetre.
– Fill the hole above the lock nut completely with grease before replacing the cover
(1) and then fasten the cover with the six hexagonal screws (2).
ADVICE
The hexagonal screws (M 20x360) (ROPA item no. 415005000) (9) must be replaced
once a year. The M20 nuts (ROPA item no. 414037000 (4) and 414032000 (13) )
must also be replaced once a year.
The cleaner roller does not a lock on the gearbox. The cleaner roller is attached to the
gearbox. It can be pulled off after loosening the counter bearing in the centre of the
pickup (pedestal bearing with adjusting ring).
