SECTION 4 – LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE
GENERAL
Your combine is designed to require minimum
lubrication and maintenance. However, regular
lubrication and maintenance is the best insurance
against delays and repairs and greatly increases the
life of the machine.
Use only top grade lubricants stored in clean vessels.
Recommended lubricants
summarized at the end of this section.
CAUTION
Always stop the machine before lubricating and
observe following precautions:
• Disengage all drives.
• Raise the header.
Engage the header lifter safety latch.
•
• Engage the parking brake.
• Switch off the combine engine.
• Remove the ignition key before leaving the
operator's platform.
GREASE FITTINGS AND INTERVALS
Before greasing the machine always wipe any dirt
from the grease fittings.
All points, except those with special notations, should
be lubricated until the grease is forced out around the
bearings and then the excess grease should be wiped
off.
NOTE: After greasing, shift the variators from
minimum to maximum and vice versa to distribute the
grease in the hub.
Grease specification

(ref. (NH710A) or AMBRA GR75MD (ref. NH720A),
