DAILY SERVICE
Cleaning
It is a good practice to clean the entire merger at the end of each day. Getting the chaff and crop off
the merger when dry will save the appearance and finish of the merger. It also gives the operator a
opportunity to check the machine up close to keep it operating properly.
Before starting to merge the next day, it is good practice to engage the PTO and run the merger when
it is in the transport position. This will loosen and discharge any material that has dried in the heads or
cross conveyors overnight.
Skid Shoes
Clean out the skid shoes at least once a day when
the merger is in the transport position. They can
become packed with debris and dirt during normal
operation. Cleaning is very important for proper skid
shoe operation.
Pickups & Hay Strippers
Check the pickup teeth and hay strippers daily that
none were broken or damaged by field obstructions
to ensure proper field performance.
Oil Fill & Check Plugs
Check the oil level daily by the "Cold Level Check
Plug". If oil cannot be seen at the Cold Level,
remove the Fill Plug and add oil until oil starts to
come out of the Cold Level hole. Re-install the Cold
Level & Fill Plugs.
