Maintenance
Lubrication
Only carry out adjustments and maintenance work when the engine is switched off!
Remove ignition key!
Secure the machine against rolling away!
Mount all guards correctly after completing any adjustments.
Only use a good quality brand-name grease, e.g. Shell Retinaz A EP2 multipurpose grease.
Remove dirt from lubrication nipples prior to applying grease. Wipe away any excess
grease escaping from bearings.
•All wheel bearings and wheel hubs should be greased and packed at least once a year.
•Check wheel lug nuts daily.
•To avoid contamination of product all hydraulic fittings must be checked daily for leaks and
replaced or tightened as necessary.
•All bearings are of sealed type and are lubricated by manufacturer. Bearings will only need
to be greased at start of season. Over greasing sealed bearings will result in seal being
broken and rapid failure of bearing. If seal is broken, bearing should be greased da8ily until
replaced. One pump of grease at start of season is sufficient.
