TWIN WHEELS
Safety rules Safety instructions
• Use appropriate, good quality tools to disassemble
the various wheel components. Never use a ham-
mer. Use a rubber, plastic or copper-faced mallet.
IMPORTANT: Never remove the inner tyre valve
extension, as this will be necessary afterwards for
inflating and deflating the tyre.
IMPORTANT: If the valve or the valve extension are
no longer accessible, take the necessary precautions
and then, imperatively, puncture the tyre.
• Use suitable grease to facilitate the installation and
removal of the tyre.
• Never re-inflate a tyre on the machine which has
been used at a pressure lower than 5.6 bar.
• Check the various components: tyre, rim, shoulder,
retaining ring and replace any defective items.
• Never reuse a retaining ring which is distorted or
rusty.
WARNING: In all cases, before removing twin
wheels, always deflate both tyres completely.
WARNING: If a tyre bursts it can cause seri-
ous injury. Check tyres regularly to see that
they are in good condition and always be sure
to inflate them to the correct pressure.
WARNING: Never face a tyre when checking
pressure or adding air. Always stand in front of
the tread. Use an inflation cage if the wheel
has been removed from the machine. Make
sure all people standing in the area move well
away.
WARNING: Never weld near a tyre.If this can
not be avoided, it is mandatory to remove the
tyre before performing any welding operations.
WARNING: Make sure that all decals on the
machine are perfectly legible, clean them regu-
larly and replace any decals which are dam-
aged, missing or painted over, with new ones.

GENERAL INFORMATION
CLEANING
Clean all metal parts except bearings with white spirit
or steam. Do not use caustic soda when steam
cleaning. After cleaning, dry and lubricate all parts.
Clean hydraulic lines with compressed air. Clean
bearings with kerosene, then dry them and lubricate
them.
INSPECTION
Check all parts when disassembled. Change all parts
showing wear or damage. Scratches that are not too
deep can be removed by honing or with a rag dipped
into buffing compound. A full visual inspection to
detect wear and pitting and subsequent changing of
parts will prevent premature failure.
BEARINGS
Check that bearings rotate freely. If their adjustment
is too loose or if they do not run regularly, change
them. Wash bearings with a good solvent or kero-
sene and let them dry. DO NOT DRY BEARINGS
WITH COMPRESSED AIR.
NEEDLE BEARINGS
Before inserting needle bearings into a bore, remove
all metal particles from the edge of the bore. Prior to
mounting bearings with a press, coat the inside and
the outside of the bearing with vaseline.
GEARS
Check all the gears for wear or damage. Change
worn or damaged gears.
SEAL RINGS, O-RINGS, GASKETS
Always use new seal rings. O-rings and gaskets.
Coat sealing rings and O-rings with vaseline.
SHAFTS
Check all shafts showing signs of wear or damage.
Check that the surface of a shaft running in a bearing
is not damaged.
SPARE PARTS
Always use original CASE spare parts. To order
spare parts, see the Spare Parts Catalogue to indi-
cate the proper reference of original CASE spare
parts. Failures caused by the use of parts that are not
original CASE spare parts are not covered by the
warranty.
LUBRICATION
Use only oils and lubricants specified in the Opera-
tor’s and Service Manuals. Failures due to the use of
oils and lubricants not specified are not covered by
