1. INTRODUCTION
MAINTENANCE
All bolts should be re-tightened after approximately two days of operation. Always
make sure that spare parts that have been fitted have been tightened with the correct
torque.
Always ensure that the pick-up is in contact with the ground and/or the lifting
cylinders are blocked when replacing parts in the hydraulic system.
Hydraulic hoses must be checked by suitably qualified personnel before they are
used for the first time and thereafter at least once a year. They must be replaced as
and when necessary. The working life of hydraulic hoses must not exceed six years,
including a maximum storage period of two years.
When replacing hoses, use hoses which meet the requirements specified by the
equipment manufacturer. All hoses are marked with their date of manufacture.
REPLACING WEARING COMPONENTS
Blades, blade bolts and the shearbar are made from high
alloy,
heat-treated
materials.
This
heat
treatment
produces a particularly hard and tough material capable
of tolerating extreme stress. Damaged blades, blade bolts
or shearbars must be replaced by original KONGSKILDE
spare parts to ensure optimal reliability.
Blades and blade bolts must be checked every day during
the season.
The special blade bolts must be tightened using a torque
wrench to 40 kgm.
The blades must be replaced once they have worn to a
maximum of 8 mm or around 12 mm above the straight
piece (see Fig. 1-4).
Fig. 1-4
Following the replacement of blades and blade bolts, etc., check that no tools have
been left in the machine.
