GENERAL INFORMATION
Your model TX combine is designed to require mini-
mum lubrication. However, regular lubrication 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 and amounts are summa-
rized at the end of this section.
CAUTION:
Always stop the machine before lubricat-
ing and observe the following precau-
tions:
S Disengage all drives.
S Lower the header to the ground, or
raise the header and engage the cylin-
der safety latch.
S Switch off the combine engine, en-
gage the parking brake and remove
the ignition key before leaving the op-
erator's platform.
SECTION 3
LUBRICATION
The service intervals are displayed on the InfoView
monitor as described in Section 4 - FIELD OPERA-
TION.
The hours shown are counted engine hours. The dis-
play starts to blink when the interval is exceeded. Af-
ter having carried out the necessary service works as
described, the hours can be cleared as explained in
Section 4 - FIELD OPERATION.
GREASE FITTINGS AND LUBRICATION INTER-
VALS
Before greasing the machine always wipe any dirt
from the grease fittings and then apply a good grade
of grease. Use Multipurpose grease AMBRA GR9
(ref. NH710A) or AMBRA GR75MD (ref. NH720A), or
grease classified under NLGI 2.
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.
All grease fittings on the machine are indicated with a
grease decal on which the time interval is mentioned.
See the Figure below.
