4.3.1 Recommended Lubricants

Keep your machine operating at top efficiency by using only clean lubricants and by ensuring the following:
• Use clean containers to handle all lubricants.
• Store lubricants in an area protected from dust, moisture, and other contaminants.
IMPORTANT:
Do NOT overfill the cutterbar when adding lubricant. Over filling could result in overheating and failure of
cutterbar components.
