Lubrication - Gallignani GA FB 12 Manuel D'utilisation Et D'entretien

ADJUSTMENTS, LUBRICATION, MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
The baler has been designed and manufactured for a
reduced maintenance.
Anyway, a regular lubrication is the best warranty
against failures and repairs; it also improves the ma-
chine life remarkably.
Carry out the lubrication according to the lubrication
table intervals described later in this section.

H
- - Use sturdy stools or a suitable ladder to grease the greasers that cannot be reached, as they are
placed on the top of the machine.
All the baler greasing points, independently of the
recommended lubrication intervals, are marked by
yellow dots, diameter 10 mm; the parts to be oiled are
represented by the symbol of an oiler.
Use multi- -purpose grease complying with the NLGI standard, class 2, such as ARBOR MBD
