Maintenance
Hydraulic system
Only carry out adjustments and maintenance work when the engine is switched off!
Remove ignition key!
Secure the machine against rolling away!
The hydraulic system is under high pressure!
Fluids escaping under high pressure can penetrate the skin and cause serious
injuries! If such injuries occur, call a doctor immediately as otherwise there is a risk
of serious infection!
Repair work to the hydraulic system may only be carried out by an authorized
dealer.
Hydraulic oil and used oil filters are to be stored in suitable containers and
disposed of in accordance with the regulations.
Caution! Hot oil can cause serious burns!
Only work on the hydraulic system when the engine is switched off!
Remove ignition key!
Secure the machine against rolling away!
Hydraulic cylinders
Prior to storing the machine (e.g. for winter period), all hydraulic cylinders must be cleaned and
completely retracted to protect them against contamination and corrosion. If a complete retraction
is not possible, lubricate the cylinders and cover them by means of a blanket. Contaminated and
corroded cylinder rods my damage the seals of the hydraulic cylinders when being
retracted/extended the first time after the winter storage!
Periodic maintenance:
-Visual inspection for leads.
-Check soiling indicator on filter (only with optional separate hydraulics)
Maintenance at the end of the harvesting season:
-Change filter as instructed
Changing the filter:
-Cleanliness is important when changing a filter.
-Insert the new filter immediately after removing the old one.
-Release filter, unscrew and replace with an original SPUDNIK filter.
Insert the new filter as follows:
-Moisten the sealing face with oil.
-After the filter seal has made contact with the sealing face of the filter housing, tighten the filter
approximately one more turn.
-Check the filter for leads after a test run; retighten if necessary.
-Check the hydraulic fluid level and top up if necessary.
