Electrode coulters

Pivot --

In all but the most extremely rocky conditions, the coulter electrodes should

not flex in the field, thus minimal movement will be realized at the pivot.

80-hour intervals should be sufficient.

Hubs --

Use good quality wheel bearing or lithium grease for lubrication, but we

suggest that you grease the hubs sparingly. Over-lubricating the hub

will result in pre-mature seal failure, and an excessive amount of grease

in the hub cap/commutator. On an interval of 150 hours, 1-2 strokes of

grease should be sufficient.

Wheel hubs --
On an annual basis, disassemble, clean, and properly repack the wheel

hubs with suitable wheel bearing grease. It is advisable to replace the seals.

As with any tapered roller bearing, proper pre-load will extend the

life of the assembly. Fully tighten the nut, then rotate backward up to ¼
