Farmi Forest Corporation 4067 Operation, Maintenance And Spare Parts Manual page 24

MAINTENANCE
• Maintenance work must be carried out regularly to
ensure safe and trouble-free operation.
• Always use the appropriate tools.
• Determine the location of the defect.
• Keep the disassembled sections, removed parts,
and the repair area protected from dirt.
• Clean the parts using kerosene, never fuel oil.
• Valve adjustments and repairs are to be performed
by dedicated service personnel.
LUBRICATION
Inject new grease so that old grease is squeezed out.
Wipe off excess grease.
SLEWING DEVICE
Lubricate the slewing device in accordance with the
lubrication instructions.
BOOMS
Keep the axial clearance in the joints as small as
possible. Do not over-tighten.
Apply grease on the upper and under side of the ex-
tension. The sliding plates are not adjustable. Replace
worn out sliding plates by new ones. The sliding plates
must be replaced by new ones before the booms rub
against each other.

Vaseline.
