13.2.19 Winter storage instructions for
combines
Winter storage of the machine after the harvest is nec-
essary in order to protect the capital invested into the
machine. Thorough and conscientious maintenance
and cleaning and the replacement of worn or damaged
parts at this point will save time and money when the
machine is required for operation again.
WARNING:
Cleaning of front attachment / machine with
water.
Material damage by corrosion.
- Avoid cleaning with water.
- Before and after cleaning with water
grease all grease points.
After that, let the front attach-
ment/machine run for some minutes.
- Do not clean hollow spaces and cable
leadthroughs with water.
- Clean the machine thoroughly inside, particularly
the threshing drum, concave, the space behind
the drum, the preparation floor, return floors, straw
walkers and above the cleaning fan.
- Open the elevator covers and auger troughs.
- Clean the exterior of all bearings thoroughly of
grease and dust.
- Preserve the machine including the grease points
to be greased at annual intervals after the harvest
by pressing in brand-name grease.
267
13 Maintenance
13.2 General Information
67089
To achieve even grease distribution, let the
machine run briefly after greasing until a small
grease edge has formed at the outside of the
bearings.
Before and after cleaning the machine with a
high-pressure jet cleaner, the bearings must
be greased!
-
With the combine still running, operate the varia-
ble-speed drives to distribute the grease evenly
between the sliding parts.
Coat the inner flanks of the variable speed pulleys
with corrosion inhibitor as far as possible.
Remove preservation before putting the
machine into operation the next time!
-
Seal off peripheries of slip clutches with paint
to keep moisture out and to keep friction faces
from rusting.
-
Grease all polished parts such as finger bars and
crop lifters.
-
Carry out all maintenance work according to the
specified intervals.
-
Check machine prior to cleaning.
Have repairs carried out if necessary.
-
Store the machine in a dry, weatherproof shed
where no fertilisers are stored!
-
Lower the front attachment to the ground or
remove it in order to relieve the hydraulic system.
-
Jack up the machine so that the full weight is not
resting on the wheels.
-
Check the coolant antifreeze content.
–
Charge the battery and recharge every six weeks
or leave it with a battery service point to take care
of.

13.2.20 Coolant
The engine cooling system has been filled with a mix-
ture of corrosion / frost protection and water at the
factory.
The coolant consists of 50% corrosion / frost protection
and 50% water.
This ensures frost protection down to approx. -37 °C.
Also refer to the specifications of the engine
manufacturer.
