Caution! - Adjusting the pole protection mechanism

Effect: Damage to the machine

• If the setting value is changed, the trigger moment will also change. If the spring on the
pole protection mechanism is pretensioned more than prescribed by the manufacturer,
there is a risk of damaging the disc mower.

• The spring on the pole protection mechanism must be tensioned at least to the extent
that the pole protection mechanism does not respond in transport position even with
abrupt loads.

Note - Oil level check and oil change (gearboxes) and lubricating the machine

Effect: Long expected service life of machine

• First oil change on all gearboxes after 50 operating hours, then every 200 operating

hours (but at least once a year).

• Before using the machine always check the oil level.

• With bio-degradable oils the changing intervals must be complied with absolutely

because of ageing of the oils.

• Before placing the machine in winter storage, clean inside and outside thoroughly. If you
use a high-pressure cleaner to do this. do not keep a stream of water directed at bearing
points. After cleaning is completed, lubricate all lubrication points. Do not wipe off any
grease that comes out of bearing points. The hardened grease will provide additional
protection against moisture.

• Disassemble the PTO shaft. Lubricate the inner tubes and the guard tube with grease.
Grease the lubrication points on the cross joint and on the bearing rings of the guard
tubes.

• Oil all joint points!

• Touch up damaged paint and preserve all uncoated areas thoroughly with rust protection
agent.

• Check all movable components such as deflector rollers, joints, tension rollers, etc. to
make certain they move easily. If necessary remove, clean, grease and remount. If
necessary, replace with new parts.

• Use only original KRONE replacement parts.

Perform the necessary repair tasks during the time immediately after the harvest season. Draw
up a list of all replacement parts you will need. This will make it easier for your KRONE dealer to
process your orders and you will be certain that your machine will be ready for use at the
beginning of the next season.
