Lely Splendimo 320 PC mounted disc mower-conditioner service schedule

1. Stop the engine, take the key out, and lower the cutter bar on to the ground or on supports.
2. Grease the PTO shaft nipples (crosses, protection tubes, free wheel clutch) and the profiled tubes.
3. Grease the bearing blocks of the intermediate shaft in the drawbar and the bearing blocks of the conditioner rotor.

Tools: Grease gun

1. Grease the headstock pivot (A), the drawbar pivot (B) and the wheel support pivot (C) in the handbook figure 21, and every other pivot point.

Tools: Grease gun

1. Park on a level floor with the cutter bar supported.
2. Drain the old oil and refill each gearbox with the exact measured quantity: 540 rpm machine upper 1.7 L and lower 1.9 L; 1000 rpm machine 1.2 L each. Gearbox B 1.2 L each. Gearbox C 0.85 L. Drive element D 0.45 L.
3. First change at about 30 hours on a new mower.

Tools: Drain tray, Measuring jug, Spanners

1. Remove the three bolts from the hood (A) and the sealing plate (B).
2. Clear ground and crop from the hat, then grease the nipples on the cross assemblies. Refit the plate and the hood.

Tools: Spanner, Grease gun

1. Remove the mower disc and take the bearing housing off the element, keeping the shims in place and the housings with their own elements.
2. Remove the old grease. Do not use solvent because it affects the bearing seals and washes the grease out of the bearings.
3. Fill the element with 95 g of new grease, weighed. The wrong amount causes overheating and damage.
4. Refit the housing, aligning the hub with the next element. Use Loctite 243 on the screws, tighten to 20 N·m. Refit the disc and tighten the castellated nut to 150 to 250 N·m with a split pin.

Tools: Spanners, Torque wrench, Loctite 243, Scales

1. Support the cutter bar. Fit knives with the cutting edge pointing down in the direction the disc turns.
2. When one edge is worn, turn the knife over to use the second edge. Always replace in pairs so the disc stays balanced.
3. Replace worn or damaged nuts and bolts. Tighten new self-locking nuts to 50 to 60 N·m.

Tools: Torque wrench, Supports for the cutter bar, Gloves

1. Grease all points in the lubrication list and the spring-loaded locking pins of the PTO shaft yoke lock. Check the PTO shaft telescopes smoothly.
2. Check the gearboxes for oil leaks, the knife bolts (50 to 60 N·m) and the discs (150 to 250 N·m).
3. Check the V-belts: each should deflect about 10 mm under 70 N. Slacken them for a long layoff.
4. Check the tyre pressure is 2.5 to 3.0 bar, tighten all bolts, particularly on the skids and wear plates, and check all safety decals are present.
5. After washing, run the discs a moment to throw off water. Grease the machine with rust preventer; for a long layoff grease the piston rods with anti-corrosion agent and remove it before use.

Tools: Torque wrench, Tyre gauge
