Introduction INTRODUCTION

The present Operator's Manual of the CLAAS combine harvesters DOMINATOR 130 DOMINATOR 140 DOMINATOR 150 is primarily intended for the machine operator and provides information about the use, setting and operation of the machine.

Texts and pictures in this manual apply generally to all combines covered. Differences are indicated by picture legends or by notes in the text.

Operation and maintenance of major ancillary equipment is also covered in this manual. Please read the instructions which apply to the appropriate ancillary equipment on your combine.

Provided you follow the advice on the care and servicing of your machine, you will be rewarded with reliable and long service from your combine harvester.

We recommend that you allow your authorized CLAAS dealer to carry out the regular maintenance.

Omissions of parts of the maintenance schedule or incorrect operation lead to a drop in performance and cost valuable time. Through correct operation and proper service, you can make full use of our sound experience and of the latest technical knowledge in combine harvesting with which your combine has been designed and thereby ensure the reliability of your combine harvester.

Apart from this Operating Manual, the following manuals can also be ordered from your CLAAS dealer: • Threshing Instructions for Special Crops.

• Fitting and Operating Instructions for Ancillary Equipment.

General Information ROAD TRAFFIC REGULATIONS

Registration

In addition to his driving licence, the operator must always carry the copy of the vehicle type approval registration (in Germany issued by the Kraftfahrt-Bundesamt), a warning triangle and, on machines over 4 t permissible total weight, at least one wheel chock on the combine.

As a self-propelled working machine with a maximum speed of up to 20 kph the combine is not subject to the normal registration regulations and is not required to bear a registration plate. The machine must, however, be clearly and indelibly marked on the left-hand side with the first name and surname of the owner and his address.

When driving on public roads with the combine, comply with all the requirements stated under letter C in the copy of the vehicle type approval registration (§18 Section 5 StVZO).

The towing of trailers in the trailer hitch when driving on public roads is not permitted.

On machines with exceptional width (width over tyres), a vehicle type approval registration for individual vehicles (single expert opinion) and a special approval in accordance with §70, Section 1, clauses 1 and 2 of the StVZO must be carried instead of the General Operating Permit. Furthermore, all the requirements stated in the vehicle type approval registration for individual vehicles and in the special approval must be observed. The issue of a special approval differs from Federal state to Federal state. Marking must be in accordance with the regulations for the marking of road vehicles with excess width (two warning panels at the front and back, protective bar, two warning lights for a yellow warning beacon.

Road traffic regulations may vary between countries. In case of discrepancies between the instructions provided by the manufacturer and the traffic regulations of the relevant countries, the traffic regulations of the countries concerned shall apply.

If any parts of the combine are subsequently modified whose condition is prescribed or the operation of which (after being modified) could represent a hazard to other road users, then the vehicle type approval registration shall no longer be valid and application must be made for a new vehicle type approval registration. In this case the machine must be presented to the motor vehicle safety inspection authority responsible in order to obtain an expert opinion certificate (§19 section 2 STVZO).

If you are in any doubt as to whether this situation applies in your case, please contact us as manufacturers.

If a transport vehicle for attachments is towed behind the combine then the cable for the lighting system must be connected and the good condition of the lighting system assured.

If the combine is equipped with a maize header or folding cutterbar, the regulations and requirements of the General Operating Permit must be observed, in particular the requirements concerning ballast weights and tyres.

11. Prevent fires by keeping the machine clean!

12. Take care when handling brake fluid and battery acid (toxic and corrosive)!

13. Before starting the engine and before switching on the threshing mechanism, always sound the horn as a warning – pay attention to children!

Transporting passengers, co-driver, operating personnel 1. The instructor's seat may only be occupied by persons instructing the operator.

2. The carrying of passengers is otherwise not permitted!

Operation 1. Observe the maximum permissible axle loads and total weights!

2. The operating, steering and braking behaviour of the combine are affected e.g. by the road surface and attached implements. Therefore always adapt your speed to the slope and ground conditions. Particular care is required when working on and driving up, down or across a slope and when the grain tank is full.

Never depress the clutch and allow the combine to roll when driving down a slope!

3. The grain tank must be empty when driving on public roads and lanes!

4. Never leave the operator's platform/cab when driving!

5. Keep a safe distance away from low overhead power lines (pay attention also to the broadcast and CB radio antennas, if installed)!

6. When moving the combine on public roads with the front attachment raised, the master safety switch must be switched off!

4.1.2

Leaving the combine harvester 1. When leaving the combine harvester, ensure that it will not roll away (apply handbrake, fit wheel chocks). Shut off the engine, remove the ignition key and lock the operator's cab!

2. If the combine harvester is shut down for an extended period, switch off the battery isolating switch.

3. Never leave the combine unattended as long as the engine is still running!

4. Lower front attachments (cutterbar, etc.) fully to the ground before leaving the combine!

Front attachments (cutterbar, etc.) and other components 1. Work under raised attachments (cutterbar, etc.) only when you are sure that the attachment is safely supported!

2. Particular care must be taken when fitting front attachments (cutterbar, etc.) or hitching trailers to the combine!

3. Cutterbar, mower bar, feed auger and reel, etc. cannot be completely shielded by design measures due to their function. For this reason, an adequate safety distance from these moving elements must be maintained during operation!

4. Feeder chains and snapping rolls of the maize picker head cannot be completely shielded by design measures due to their function. For this reason, an adequate safety distance from these moving elements must be maintained as well during operation! These instructions apply analogously for all other attachments.

5. The straw chopper has safety guards surrounding dangerous rotating blades which may continue to rotate for a certain time after the drive has been switched off. For this reason, an adequate safety distance from the straw chopper should be maintained until the drive has come to a complete standstill.

BA DOMINATOR 150 - 130 - 0293 210.0

Safety Rules 6. The augers located inside the grain tank cannot be shielded completely against accidental contact due to their function.

Sound pressure level The sound pressure level at the operator's ear in the cab with doors and windows closed is 79 dB(A).

7. Before entering the grain tank, be sure that no other person can restart the engine.

Hydraulic accumulators

8. Enter the grain tank only through the opening intended for this purpose.

Take particular care when working on hydraulic accumulators! Hydraulic accumulators are under high pressure!

9. When driving on public roads and lanes with the cutterbar fitted, the finger bar and crop lifters must be covered!

Air conditioning system 1. The air conditioning system is filled with CFC refrigerant R 134 A. CFC refrigerants must not be allowed to escape into the atmosphere! Particular care must therefore be taken when working on the air conditioning system.

In case of valve-controlled accumulators such as e.g. for the Autopilot, the short-circuit screw must be loosened before starting repair work on the accumulator. This is necessary in order to relieve the hydraulic pressure.

2. Maintenance and repair work on the air conditioning system may only be carried out by air conditioning system service workshops. Refrigerant must always be drawn off and disposed of for recycling.

Maintenance 1. Repair, service and cleaning work and the elimination of malfunctions should only be performed with the drive and the engine switched off. Remove the ignition key and switch off the battery isolating switch!

2. Escaping fluid (fuel, hydraulic oil, etc.) under high pressure can penetrate the skin and cause serious injury. If any fluid is injected into the skin, consult a doctor immediately as otherwise serious infections may result!

3. Be careful when opening the radiator filler cap.

As long as the engine is hot, the radiator is under pressure!

4. Dispose of oil, fuel and filters in the prescribed manner!

5. Do not attempt to mount a tyre unless you have the proper equipment and experience to perform the job safely!

6. Retighten the wheel nuts at regular intervals!

7. Only have qualified workshops carry out maintenance and repair work on the hydraulic system!

Basic rule Always check the operating and road safety of the combine before starting the machine!

Description and function Cutterbar

Crop

Dividers separate the standing grain from the grain which is to be cut.

Grain, chaff, broken straw

Grain lifters lift lodged crops and avoid cutting losses in crops with hanging heads.

Grain

The reel moves the cut crop to the intake auger. The auger flights move the material to the cutterbar centre where the feed rake delivers it to the drum for threshing. The stone trap collects solid objects brought up by the feed rake, thus preventing damage to the threshing parts.

Returns Straw Chaff (Fig. 2)

5.5.2

BA DOMINATOR 150 - 130 - 0293 210.0

Specifications Threshing mechanism Threshing is performed by drum and concave. The bulk of the grain together with the chaff and broken straw passes through the concave onto the preparation floor of the sieve pan. The impeller delivers the straw and remainder of the grain to the straw walkers.

A deflector curtain behind the impeller holds back bouncing grains and deflects them down onto the front of the straw walkers.

Straw walkers The straw walkers separate the remainder of the grain from the straw. The straw is either removed out of the combine through the rear panel or undergoes further processing by special attachments (e.g. straw chopper). The grains separated by the straw walkers are returned to the sieve pan via the under-walker return floor. Crankshafts with agitator tines intensify the loosening of the straw on the straw walkers.

Cleaning Grain mixed with chaff and broken straw is fluffed by means of the shaking action of the preparation floor and at the same time moved onto the sieves.

The wind blast of the cleaning fan blows the light particles (chaff) to the rear, out of the machine. The grain falls through the upper and lower sieve into the clean grain auger trough and is conveyed into the grain tank by the clean grain elevator. All parts heavier than chaff and bigger than grain travel over the upper sieve and lower sieve, drop into the returns auger and are moved to the returns elevator. The elevator carries the returns to the drum for further threshing. Swinging the grain tank unloading tube into operating position allows the grain tank to be quickly emptied into a truck or trailer alongside the combine.

Disawning When combining grain which is unusually hard to disawn or in which it is hard to separate the seeds from the heads or husks, additional disawning plates can be installed in the concave.

0293 210.0 - BA DOMINATOR 150 - 130

5.5.3

Specifications Considerations before combining

When combining, remember: 1. Wait until the crop has fully ripened – do not combine beforehand!

(Higher yield, less moisture content and easier threshing are the result.)

2. Where the heads are bent, install grain lifters close together. Where the crop is lodged, install grain lifters further apart (on every fourth to sixth cutterbar finger).

3. Where straw and grain are brittle, set the concave wider and reduce the threshing drum speed. Too much short straw impedes the cleaning process.

Cracked grain lowers the quality.

4. Where the straw is long, damp and tough, reduce the concave clearance and increase the threshing drum speed.

5. Under damp conditions and where crops are also grown through with greenstuff, clean the concave, straw walkers and sieves regularly.

6. Remember that the vital part of the cleaning process is the blast of the fan. Prevent the forming of "mats" on the sieves and unnecessary grain losses by using enough wind, adjusting the frogmouth sieve correctly and using a flat sieve of sufficient hole size.

7. When combining crops in which it is hard to remove the awns, additional rasp bars can be fitted to the concave.

8. To get the best results from your combine run it at the right speed. Therefore, check the speed on the straw walker shaft before the harvest. The correct speed is 220-5 rpm.

9. Correct cleaning of the air cleaner as well as clean fuel and regular oil changes are essential for high performance and long life of the engine.

5.5.4

Prior to Operation Cab with fan The cab is equipped with an efficient double fan which blows fresh air into the cab.

The fan can be set to three different speeds by means of the 3-position switch (4). Air louvres (7) and (8) allow the operator to control the direction of air flow.

(Fig. 3) Clean the filters in the cab roof at regular intervals – see page 9.8.1, Cleaning the filters.

Cab with air conditioner (with York compressor) Danger!

Important instructions regarding the air conditioner system: 1. Avoid contact with liquid refrigerant!

Wear gloves and safety goggles.

2. If any refrigerant splashes into your eyes, consult a doctor immediately.

3. Have maintenance and repairs carried out by specialist air conditioning system workshops only.

4. Do not weld on any parts of the refrigerant circuit or in the close vicinity of refrigerant circuit components. – Danger of poisoning!

5. Maximum ambient temperature for refrigerant is 80 °C! The air conditioning system has been filled with refrigerant R 134a at the factory.

The filling volume is approx. 1.390 kg.

The compressor is filled with ester oil.

6.2.4

BA DOMINATOR 150 - 130 - 0293 210.0

Prior to Operation Putting the air conditioner into operation: (with York compressor) 1. Unscrew the seal caps of service valves at (1 and 2).

1

2. Completely open both service valves (1 and 2) to their fully open position and tighten them in that position so that the valve seating faces will seal off properly toward the outside as well.

2

3. Screw on the plugs of service valves at (1 and 2).

Ensure that the seal caps (V) are tight.

4

4. Insert the flat fuse (F) (the cable with the flat fuse (F) is located between the grain tank and the engine).

Important!

The flat fuse (F) for the air conditioner must never be inserted as long as the valves on the compressor are closed.

F

(Fig. 4, 5)

5 On cabs equipped with a cab heater, open the bypass flap by moving lever (1) to the down position. Start the diesel engine. Set the double fan to the desired speed 1 – 3 using switch (4). Turn air conditioner thermostat switch (5) in clockwise direction to set the desired temperature. The air conditioning system is now turned on.

Precooled air from inside the cab is drawn in through recirculating air grille (6) and mixed with filtered outside air. The blend is further cooled and pushed through louvres (8) and (7) into the cab. The adjustable air louvres (8) and (7) allow the operator to control the direction of air flow. Air louvres (7) can be closed, if required.

When the desired temperature is reached, a thermostat switch in conjunction with an electro-magnetic clutch disengages the compressor.

The compressor is automatically engaged as the temperature rises.

The air conditioner can only work properly if the door and the windows are closed.

0293 210.0 - BA DOMINATOR 150 - 130

6.2.5

Prior to Operation The air conditioner is shut down automatically if a fault occurs: The air conditioner was shut down via the high-pressure switch.

After the system has cooled down, the air conditioner is switched on again automatically.

If the air conditioner is shut down very frequently at very short intervals, it must be checked for any possible faults.

Possible reasons – see page 6.2.9, Problem, possible cause and remedy – Air conditioner.

Note!

Differences in temperature between the inside air and outside air of more than 8 °C to 10 °C (46 °F to 50 °F) are a danger to your health!

(Fig. 3)

Cab with air conditioner (with Sanden compressor) Danger!

Important instructions regarding the air conditioner system: 1. Avoid contact with liquid refrigerant!

Wear gloves and safety goggles.

2. If any refrigerant splashes into your eyes, consult a doctor immediately.

3. Have maintenance and repairs carried out by specialist air conditioning system workshops only.

4. Do not weld on any parts of the refrigerant circuit or in the close vicinity of refrigerant circuit components – Danger of poisoning!

5. Maximum ambient temperature for refrigerant is 80 °C! The air conditioning system has been filled with refrigerant R 134a at the factory.

The filling volume is approx. 1.390 kg.

The compressor is filled with Sanden oil (PAG oil).

The cab is equipped with an efficient fresh air fan.

The fan can be set to three different speeds by means of the 3-position switch (4).

6.2.6

BA DOMINATOR 150 - 130 - 0293 210.0

Prior to Operation Putting the air conditioner into operation: (with Sanden compressor) On cabs equipped with a cab heater, open the bypass flap by moving lever (1) to the down position. Start the diesel engine. Set the double fan to the desired speed 1 – 3 using switch (4). Turn air conditioner thermostat switch (5) in clockwise direction to set the desired temperature. The air conditioning system is now turned on.

6

Precooled air from inside the cab is drawn in through recirculating air grille (6) and mixed with filtered outside air. The blend is further cooled and pushed through air louvres (8) and (7) into the cab. The adjustable air louvres (8) and (7) allow the operator to control the direction of air flow. Air louvres (7) can be closed, if required.

When the desired temperature is reached, a thermostat switch in conjunction with an electro-magnetic clutch disengages the compressor.

The compressor is automatically engaged as the temperature rises.

The air conditioner can only work properly if the door and the windows are closed.

(Fig. 3, 6)

The air conditioner is shut down automatically if a fault occurs: The air conditioner was shut down via the high-pressure switch.

After the system has cooled down, the air conditioner is switched on again automatically.

If the air conditioner is shut down very frequently at very short intervals, it must be checked for any possible faults.

Possible reasons – see page 6.2.9, Problem, possible cause and remedy – Air conditioner.

Note!

Differences in temperature between the inside air and outside air of more than 8 °C to 10 °C (46 °F to 50 °F) are a danger to your health!

6.2.7

Prior to Operation Cab with fan and cab heater A hot water heating unit is installed downstream of the fresh air fan.

The hot water flow rate through the heater coil and thus the temperature of the heated air can be controlled by means of turn switch (3).

Putting the heater into operation: Open the taps on the engine. Close the bypass flap by moving lever (1) to the up position. Turn switch (3) in clockwise direction. The further the switch is turned to the right, the higher the heating capacity. The adjustable air louvres (7) and (8) allow the operator to control the direction of air flow (heated air and fresh air).

Clean the filters in the cab roof at regular intervals – see page 9.8.1, Cleaning the filters.

BA DOMINATOR 150 - 130 - 0293 210.0

Prior to Operation Problem, possible cause and remedy – Air conditioner Problem

Possible cause and remedy

Air conditioner shuts down automatically.

1. Extremely high outside temperature, let system cool down. The air conditioner will re-start automatically after cooling down. Close door and windows.

Air conditioner does not provide cooling.

Only uncooled air comes out of the air louvres.

1. Magnetic clutch does not engage.

Have clutch replaced.

2. Drive belt slack.

Tension or replace V-belt.

3. Cable connections loose.

Tighten loose or disconnected cables.

4. Fuses blown.

Install new fuse.

5. Compressor not pumping refrigerant.

Expansion valve iced. Saturation point of moisture indicator reached (blue ball has turned pink). Have filter-receiver replaced. For this, the system has to be discharged using the correct recovery equipment and then recharged.

Cool air is blown through the air louvres, but the air flow is insufficient for cooling the cab.

1. Evaporator in cab roof blocked.

Clean evaporator.

2. Evaporator defective. Install new evaporator.

(Have air conditioner system discharged and then recharge with refrigerant.)

3. Condenser upstream of radiator is soiled.

Clean condenser.

4. Coolant level too low. White ball does not float and is at bottom of indicator. Have air conditioning system checked by a specialist workshop.

5. Outside air getting into the cab.

Close door and windows completely.

Air conditioner provides cool air for a time, then discharges warm air again.

1. Ice formation in the expansion valve. Saturation point of filter-receiver reached (blue ball has turned pink). Have filter-receiver replaced. (Discharge and then recharge air conditioner).

Compressor too loud.

1. Compressor bearings damaged. Have the compressor repaired or replaced. For this, the system has to be discharged using the correct recovery equipment and then recharged.

2. Oil level in compressor too low (indicated by external leakage). Have repair work carried out by a specialist workshop. Check oil level in compressor only with system drained. For this, system has to be discharged using the correct recovery equipment.

Operation – Basic Machine Cleaning the threshing parts When working in green and damp crops the drum and the concave, the space behind the concave and the front of the preparation floor can quickly become clogged with dirt.

N

P

The consequences are: Poor separation in the concave, overloading of the straw walkers, unbalance of the threshing drum and uneven feeding to the sieves.

8

To ensure trouble-free operation of the combine, it is essential to check these parts regularly for dirt and to clean, when necessary.

The rasp bars should be cleaned evenly to prevent the drum becoming unbalanced.

Large inspection holes (N) facilitate checking and cleaning, once the flaps (P) have been removed.

(Fig. 8)

Threshing drum speed On-the-go variation of drum speed combined with concave torque adjustments which can be carried out from the platform allow quick changes of threshing operations in order to match crop conditions. Damp long-strawed crops as well as crops difficult to thresh and disawn require faster drum speeds than dry and brittle crops.

The same warning signal may be released by the engine overheating as the engine cooling system is connected to the same warning system. See "Engine" section.

Preparation floor The mixture of chaff/grain/broken straw from both the concave and the straw walkers pours onto the preparing floor (1). The mixture is fluffed and evenly fed to the upper sieve (3) by the shaking action of the sieve pan.

Adjusting the fan indicator:

10

When first starting up, adjust the fan to the lowest speed. Loosen clamp (K) and adjust plastic indicator rod (P) so that the coloured ring is on the lowest number of indicator scale (S).

The indicated scale value x 100 = approx. fan speed in rpm.

The volume of the wind can be infinitely varied with crank (A):

Dynamic sidehill levelling (3D cleaning system) The sidehill levelling system moves the upper sieve in three directions: 1. Back and forth 2. Up and down 3. Sideways "up the slope"

The upper sieve has an additional pivot arm (D) on the left-hand side.

As the degree of slope changes, control unit (S) adjusts this pivot arm at different angles to the upper sieve by way of hydraulic cylinder (Z) and connecting rod (B). This causes a more or less strong sideways movement of the upper sieve, essentially moving the material "up the slope".

Operation – Basic Machine Returns Coarse particles (e.g. unthreshed material) fall from the upper and the lower sieves into the returns auger which moves the material to the returns elevator. The elevator carries the returns to the drum for second threshing.

Excessive returns can be caused by: 1. Improper adjustments in the threshing mechanism, concave, speed of threshing drum (excessive amounts of cracked grain).

2. Lips of frogmouth sieves set too close or too small a hole size chosen for the lower sieve.

3. Air blast from the fan too strong or too weak.

4. Ground speed too fast.

21

Excessive amounts of returns reduce combine throughput and cause grain damage and losses.

(Fig. 21)

Checking the returns: Danger!

Never move your hands into the returns opening – danger of accidents!

2

Be especially careful when touching the auger – sharp edges – danger of personal injury!

8.3.11

Operation – Basic Machine Since the various kinds of grain have their specific properties (as shape of kernels, awns, amount of leaves on the straw etc.), a different number of grains strike the sensors although actual grain losses are the same. For this reason it is essential to adjust the sensitivity of each sensor to grain type and crop conditions (damp straw, greenstuff, etc.) with switch (A) for sieve pans and switch (B) for straw walkers on the scale from 1 to 7.

(Fig. 25, 26) While grain losses over the straw walkers generally occur when the combine is overloaded, sieve pan losses are almost always caused by faulty combine settings.

BA DOMINATOR 150 - 130 - 0293 210.0

Operation – Basic Machine When using a straw chopper, the sensitivity of the straw walker sensors should be slightly decreased.

Start operation by driving a forward speed which suits crop conditions. When after a sufficient time of operation the fourth to fifth bulb of the meters light up steadily, stop the combine. Check the field losses in the swath.

– If loss is at an acceptable level, continue operation with selected setting.

– If the straw walker losses are too high, turn switch (B) to a higher position (about one half to one full setting higher). Now adjust forward speed until the fourth or fifth light in the meters light up again.

If the loss rate, indicated by the fourth or fifth light in the meters, is acceptable, the capacity of the combine is fully utilized at this forward speed.

The performance monitor should be adjusted as described to suit changing losses in the morning, when the crop is wet with dew, at noon when the crop is absolutely dry, and in the evening when the crop gradually gets damp.

If the light band in the sieve pan meter indicates excessive losses of grain over the sieve pan, check the combine setting and check in particular whether any material "mats" on the sieves. Correct the problem, if necessary.

When the right setting for the crop being harvested has been selected with switch (A) and when the cleaning units have been properly adjusted, one of the lights in the lower section of the meter will be on.

Problem

Possible cause and Remedy

Elevators Elevator obstructed (speed-loss monitor: speed indicator light for grain or returns elevator comes on)

1. Open elevator bottom flap to remove the clogging. Open auger trough. Run combine with open flap until elevator and auger are clear. Tightly close elevator bottom flap and auger trough.

2. Retension elevator chain if required.

3. Avoid material build-up and excessive returns.

4. Adjust tension of the V-belt driving the elevators.

Grain tank Grain tank unloading not functioning

Grain losses

1. Check low-pressure hydraulic system and free movement of tensioning cylinder with jockey pulley for the grain tank unloading drive.

2. Readjust the drive and belt guides for the grain tank unloading augers.

3. Replace shear bolt in sprocket driving the grain tank unloading auger.

4. Bend misaligned auger flights.

5. Tension the unloading auger drive chain at the end of the unloading tube (hydraulic unloading tube swing only).

Losses of grain may have different reasons. Therefore, always determine first where the losses occur.

Check combine for leakage losses. Check whether grain is lost where working parts join, especially check auger troughs, elevators etc. Extra care should be taken to check the working parts for good fitting when combining small seeds. Repair all leaks as necessary.

Losses that are caused by overripe crops or poor weather conditions must not be taken for combine losses.

Grain losses that are due to combining usually have four main causes: – Losses of grain over the cutterbar – Losses of grain caused by insufficient threshing – Loss of grain over the straw walkers – Losses of grain over the sieve pan

Before working in or on the cutterbar, switch off the threshing mechanism and stop the engine.

When working under the attached cutterbar, always be sure it is securely supported!

Correct chain tension

The tension of steel roller chains is correct when the slack side deflects about 2 % of the centre distance between shafts under thumb pressure at the centre and with a slight load on the tight side. When new chains are fitted, the tension should be checked at shorter intervals.

If a chain has excessively lengthened, shorten the chain by removing one double link.

Belts

All V-belts must be kept properly tensioned at all times.

Oiled belts can be cleaned with a soapy solution; never use gasoline or similar products for belt cleaning.

When installing a new V-belt on belt-operated clutches, apply liquid Teflon to the inner face of the belt guides.

Check the tension of new belts after the first 2 to 3 working hours and adjust their tension, if necessary.

Variable speed pulleys

Whenever the variable speed pulleys have been greased, operate the pulleys a few times to ensure even spreading of grease on sliding parts.

Remove any accumulations of dust from between the variable speed pulley halves to make sure the pulleys can be run through their full speed range.

Maintenance – Basic Machine, Cutterbar Checking the refrigerant level The refrigerant level can be checked at the sight glass (G) of the filter receiver drier.

G

A white float ball and a blue indicator bead can be seen in the sight glass.

(Fig. 10)

10 Function of the white float ball: The refrigerant level can be monitored by means of the white float ball.

To check the refrigerant level, the air conditioning system must be switched on.

If the white float ball is at the bottom of the sight glass, this indicates that the refrigerant level is too low. See a refrigerant system service specialist.

If the white float ball is at the top of the sight glass, the refrigerant level is OK.

Function of the blue indicator bead: Moisture in the refrigerant circuit is collected in the filter receiver drier. When the filter receiver drier is saturated with moisture, the blue indicator bead turns pink.

Replacing the filter receiver drier Replace the filter-drier 1. When the moisture indicator (bead) in the sight glass has changed from blue (state when new) to pink.

2. Every time the refrigerant circuit is worked on when repair work is carried out (but only if the cooling system has been in service for some time).

Required refrigerant charge – refrigerant R 134 a The required refrigerant charge is approx. 1.390 kg of refrigerant.

Always disengage the threshing mechanism, stop the engine and remove the ignition key before carrying out any work on the straw chopper.

After disengaging the drives and stopping the engine, beware that the rotor of the straw chopper continues to run!

Changing the free-swinging knives Caution!

All knives on the rotor are nearly of the same weight. Therefore, blunt knives must not be resharpened.

When one cutting edge of the knives is worn, the knives can be turned over. When replacing worn knives with new ones, the opposite knives on the rotor must be replaced too. If this is ignored, the rotor may be thrown out of balance which may result in further damage.

Maintenance – Basic Machine, Cutterbar WINTER STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMBINES Proper storage of the combine after the harvest is essential in order to obtain the optimum return on the investment capital in this 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 combine is required for operation again.

1. Clean the exterior of all bearings of dust and grease.

Caution!

If the combine is washed (this should be avoided, if possible), all the lubrication points must be greased after washing.

Then run the combine for a few minutes and operate all the variable speed pulleys.

Hollow areas such as cable leadthroughs should not be cleaned with water as the water cannot be removed from the hollow areas and can lead to the formation of rust.

2. Clean the combine thoroughly inside and out, particularly the threshing drum, concave, the space behind the drum, the preparation floor, return floors and above the cleaning fan.

3. Using good-quality grease, lubricate all grease points of the combine, taking care not to miss any of those requiring only annual attention. Run the combine for a short period of time to distribute the grease evenly and until the grease has slightly protruded from the bearings to form a seal. With the combine still running, operate the variable speed pulleys to distribute the grease evenly between the sliding parts.

Seal off peripheries and hubs of slip clutches with paint to keep moisture out and prevent friction surfaces from rusting.

4. Open the elevator flaps and auger troughs.

Remove screens.

5. Grease all other bare metal parts such as knife bar and crop lifters.

6. Apply corrosion inhibitor to the inner flanks of the variable speed pulleys.

7. Change the hydraulic and gearbox oil – see maintenance schedules and section "Maintenance – Engines".

8. After cleaning, inspect the combine for worn or defective parts and have any necessary repairs carried out immediately.

9. Park the combine in a dry place protected from the weather where no commercial fertilisers are stored.

10. Lower the cutterbar to the ground or remove it to relieve the load on the hydraulic system.

11. Jack up the combine to take the load off the wheels and tyres.
