Maintenance Tips
- Concave Adjustment: Regularly inspect and adjust the concave clearance to ensure optimal threshing and minimize grain damage. Follow the operator's manual for recommended settings based on crop type and condition.
- Belt and Chain Tension: Check the tension of all belts and chains regularly. Loose belts and chains can cause slippage, reduced performance, and premature wear. Adjust as needed and replace worn components promptly.
- Sieve and Chaffer Cleaning: Keep the sieves and chaffers clean to maintain efficient grain separation. Remove any accumulated debris regularly to prevent losses and ensure a clean sample.
- Bearing Greasing: Grease all bearings according to the recommended maintenance schedule. Proper lubrication is crucial for extending bearing life and preventing breakdowns during the busy harvest season.
