Maintenance Tips

Concave Adjustment: Regularly check and adjust concave clearance to ensure optimal threshing and minimize grain loss. Refer to the operator's manual for recommended settings based on the crop being harvested.
Belt and Chain Tension: Inspect belt and chain tension regularly. Loose belts and chains can cause slippage and premature wear. Tighten or replace as needed.
Sieve and Chaffer Cleaning: Clean sieves and chaffers frequently to prevent buildup of debris and ensure proper separation of grain. Use compressed air to remove chaff and straw.
Bearing Greasing: Grease all bearings according to the recommended schedule. Proper lubrication is crucial for preventing bearing failure and extending the lifespan of your combine.
