The 16-point auto lube system ensures optimal lubrication to the press-roll carrier bearings, throughout the working day. The system is configured to deliver a small amount of grease, sequentially, to each bearing ensuring maximum life is reached and reducing the risk of costly down-time. Supplied with an 8-litre, 12 volt Lincoln 203 pump, the system should be good for approximately 20 days work between refills.

Mr Fairly commented that 'it was not just the cost of repairing the machine after bearing failure, which can be significant, but perhaps more significantly the down time that can be suffered during critically short windows of time, during the cultivation season.'
