7. MAINTENANCE
All electrical and mechanical maintenance shall only be carried out by authorised persons
in accordance with a safe system of work and CEMBRE instructions.
Before servicing or removing any parts of the machine, stop the engine and allow it to
cool. Always remove the spark plug cap from the spark plug when servicing the engine
to prevent accidental starting.
7.1) Routine maintenance of the machine
At the end of each day, clean the machine carefully using a clean cloth, being careful to remove
all dirt, especially near the moving parts such as the clamp teeth, piston rods and wheels. Do
not rest the machine or units directly on dusty or muddy ground.
Regularly perform the following operations or inspections:
– Tighten all bolts.
– Check the integrity of the rubber dampers which reduce vibration caused by the en-
gine-pump.
– If necessary, replace the insertion teeth (42), the hooks (44) and jaws (43) as these
could become worn or damaged by long or improper use.
7.1.1) Maintenance of braking device (only for versions of machine with braked wheels)
The braking system is robust and will require very little maintenance, however the following
routine checks should be performed.
Dust, sand and dirt are a danger for any mechanical device. Avoid putting the machine on
muddy ground. After every use, the machine must be wiped with a clean cloth, taking care to
remove any residue, especially around moving parts.
