GENERAL MAINTENANCE
General Lubrication
The example illustration
opposite indicates the general
locations of lubrication points
- all points should be greased
on a daily basis and prior
storage of the machine. New
machines must be greased
prior to first use.
Gearbox Lubrication
Check gearbox oil level on new machines prior to first use, top up if required before using
the machine. Change oil after an initial 50 hours of use and thereafter at annual or 500
hour intervals, whichever occurs earliest.
Gearbox Capacity:
0.7 Litre SAE75W90 Fully Synthetic which meets the following minimum requirements;
Viscosity at 40°C, cSt, 100.0 min.
Viscosity at 100°C, cSt, 17.2 min.
Replacing Gearbox Oil
Drainage of the gearbox for
changes of oil is via the drain plug
located on the base of the gearbox.
For refilling or for ‘topping up’ the
oil remove both plugs indicated
opposite and fill gearbox via the
filler plug to a point where the oil
starts to run from the level plug
orifice – replace plugs and tighten
securely.
