Service jobs and parts

Re-tighten bolts after the first hours

Frame · every 10 hours

Pöttinger says after the first operating hours to retighten all bolts. It names the tine bolts (12 kpm), the tine arm bolts (9 kpm) and the swing frame bolts specially.

Lower the tedder onto firm level ground, stop the tractor and take the key out.
Tighten the tine nuts to 12 kpm (about 118 Nm) and the tine arm bolts to 9 kpm (about 88 Nm).
Check the swing frame bolts and all others.
Check the tyre pressure to your handbook.

Tools: Torque wrench, Spanner set

Greasing (all nipples and PTO shaft)

Lubrication · every 50 hours

Pöttinger says grease the nipples with universal grease every 50 hours, and the PTO shaft every 50 hours (the shaft maker's own chart says every 30 hours for the shaft tubes; use whichever is shorter).
