The recommended maintenance schedule for the John Deere 475plus includes daily checks of fluid levels, weekly inspections of belts and chains, and monthly lubrication of moving parts. Refer to the operator's manual for detailed intervals and procedures.
If the engine does not start, check the battery connections, ensure there is sufficient fuel, inspect the ignition system, and verify that the safety switches are engaged. If the issue persists, consult the service manual or contact a certified technician.
Check for blockages in the feeder house, adjust the feeder chain tension, and ensure that the crop dividers are set correctly. Additionally, inspect the header for wear or damage that might affect performance.
To change the oil, first warm up the engine, then shut it off and secure the machine. Drain the old oil, replace the oil filter, and refill with the recommended type and amount of oil as specified in the operator's manual.
The John Deere 475plus is designed to run on diesel fuel. Use only clean, high-quality diesel that meets ASTM D975 standards to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
Regular maintenance, such as keeping filters clean, maintaining proper tire pressure, and ensuring the engine is tuned correctly, can help improve fuel efficiency. Additionally, operate at recommended speeds and loads.
First, disconnect the power and ensure the machine is stable. Remove the guards covering the belt, release the tension, and then remove the old belt. Install the new belt following the routing diagram and adjust the tension before replacing the guards.
Ensure that the combine settings are optimized for the crop type and conditions. Regularly check and adjust the concave clearance, rotor speed, and sieve settings to minimize grain loss.
Common causes include clogged air filters, low coolant levels, and radiator blockages. Address by cleaning or replacing air filters, ensuring adequate coolant, and clearing debris from the radiator.
Refer to the operator's manual for specific calibration procedures. Typically, it involves entering calibration mode on the display, running a test batch, and adjusting sensor readings based on the known weight of the harvested crop.
