Maintenance Tips

Concave Adjustment: Regularly inspect and adjust the concave clearance to ensure optimal threshing and minimize grain damage. Refer to the operator's manual for specific settings based on crop type.
Belt and Chain Tension: Check belt and chain tension regularly, especially before and during harvest season. Loose belts and chains can cause slippage, reduce efficiency, and lead to premature wear.
Sieve and Chaffer Cleaning: Clean the sieves and chaffer frequently to remove debris and prevent plugging. This ensures proper grain separation and reduces losses.
Bearing Greasing: Grease all bearings regularly according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Proper lubrication is crucial for extending the life of bearings and preventing breakdowns.
