Regular maintenance should be performed every 100 hours of operation, including checking the belts, cleaning the filters, and inspecting the knives for wear.
First, inspect the feed rollers for blockages or debris. Ensure that the crop is being fed evenly. Adjust the tension of the feed rollers if necessary.
Check the battery connections and ensure they are clean and tight. Verify the fuel level and inspect the fuel filter for clogs. Ensure the safety switches are engaged.
To replace the blades, first disconnect the power. Remove the blade guard and loosen the bolts holding the blade. Replace with a new blade and secure it tightly. Reattach the blade guard.
After use, remove any debris from the machine using compressed air. Clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Ensure all moving parts are free of dirt and grime.
Ensure that the machine is properly calibrated for the crop type. Regularly maintain the cutting components and adjust the feed rate according to field conditions.
Inspect all belts and chains for wear, check fluid levels, lubricate all moving parts, and perform a test run to ensure all systems are functioning properly.
To adjust the belt tension, locate the tensioner bolt and adjust it to achieve the recommended tension specified in the operator's manual.
Common error codes include E01 for sensor issues and E02 for hydraulic problems. Consult the manual for detailed troubleshooting steps and contact a service technician if necessary.
Always read and follow the operator's manual, wear appropriate safety gear, and ensure all safety devices are in place and functioning. Conduct regular safety checks before operation.
