MAINTENANCE
9.2 GREASING AND LUBRICATION
Every non-painted metallic component of the planter is exposed to atmospheric and weather condi-
tions, which may oxidize them. For this reason, it is important to grease and lubricate these compo-
nents.
Attached to specic parts of the planter, you will nd adhesives with symbols to indicate the parts to
be GREASED (Fig. 9.1) or the points to be LUBRICATED (Fig. 9.2).
BEFORE LUBRICATING OR GREASING, WASH THE PLANTER TO REMOVE EARTH RESIDUES ATTACHED TO
THE MACHINE (see section 9.6 MACHINE CLEANING).
The following parts of the
planter should be greased:
- T
rack markers (Fig. 9.3)
- Driving wheels’ bus-
hings (Fig. 9.4).
- Each component of the
transmission (Fig. 9.5).
- Each component of the
metering units (Fig. 9.6).
- Each PTO shaft and
plastic axle of the PTOs
(Fig. 9.7).
TO GREASE THESE PARTS, ALWAYS USE SOLID CALCIUM
GREASE.
SOME PARTS OF THE MACHINE NEED TO BE GREASED EVERY 50 WORKING HOURS (SEE SECTION 9.1 CHEC-
KING FREQUENCY). NOT OBSERVING THESE GREASING RULES MAY RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE PLANTER.
