Service and maintenance
For the machine to function satisfactorily and at lowest possible
cost, a thorough maintenance is required.
Lubrication and service chart
The section “Lubrication and Service Chart” describes the
maintenance work, which the operator can carry out. If certain
operations require trained workshop personnel and special
equipment, this will be indicated. See “Lubrication and service
chart” page 155.
Service history
After every completed service at an authorised workshop, the
Service History shall be filled in, see page 195. The Service
History is a valuable document that can be referred to, e.g., when
selling the machine.
Arrival and delivery inspection
Before the machine leaves the factory, it is tested and adjusted.
The dealer must also, if the warranty is to apply, carry out "Arrival
and delivery inspections" according to applicable form, which must
be signed.
Delivery instructions
When handing the machine over, the dealer must give the buyer
"Delivery instructions" according to applicable form, which must be
signed, if the warranty is to apply.
Service programmes
The Service Programme should be used in connection with
warranty inspections and during maintenance carried out by an
authorised dealer workshop.
The intervals recommended between checks, oil changes and
lubrication apply provided that the machine is used under normal
environmental and operating conditions.
Warranty inspection
Two Warranty Inspections should be carried out at an authorised
dealer workshop. The first within 100 operating hours and the
second at the latest at 1000 operating hours.
The carrying out of these warranty inspections is a condition for the
warranty to apply.
During these inspections, oil and other liquids have to be changed
before the end of the regular intervals.
Maintenance
Regarding intervals for other maintenance, see the Service
Programme or the Lubrication and Service Chart in this section.
