Handling the manual
This repair manual should help you to maintain
ongoing operational capacity. The high value of the
harvesting machine is ensured through careful
maintenance and technical monitoring by customer
service.
This repair manual is a compilation of our service
technicians' and shop-floor experience.
The picture sequence demonstrates the steps in a
repair procedure. The text provides you with the
information required for making adjustments, using
special tools and further similar information.
Essential repairs are listed in such a way that even
individual and small repairs can be easily found and
followed.
Supplements are added to reflect the ongoing
technical development of the machines and the
manual is thereby continuously being updated as a
reference book.
As a precaution, always compare the setting values
and fill quantities with the most recent operator's
manual and the technical systems documents for the
respective machine.
Texts and figures
Pictures and graphics apply to all models covered by
this manual. Differences are highlighted by captions
below the figures.
In general, texts are short and apply to all models
covered by this manual. Differences are highlighted by
intermediate headings.

Information on proper repairs
►Mark rotating machine components before
removing or dismounting them in order to ensure
well-balanced component seating on the correct
side after refitting.
►The slots of expansion pins must always point to
the loaded side.
When they are installed with a 90° twist, they
come loose, fall out or shear off.
►Replace cotter pins, locking wires, sheet retention
devices, lock washers and spring washers in the
repair process.
►Align sprockets and V-belt pulleys with one
another.
►Observe the information in the hydraulic system
chapter when working on the hydraulic system.
►Do not mix different oil grades.
123164-004
Self-locking bolts
Self-locking bolts must not come in contact with
sealing compound.
►Tighten self-locking bolt speedily up to the
specified torque.
► The full hardening time can be reduced by
heating-up, e.g. to 15 minutes at + 70 °C.
► The full load capacity is achieved after
24 hours at + 20 °C.
►When unscrewing self-locking bolts, unscrew
them quickly.
120820-003
Liquid locking compound
►Use liquid locking compound (glue) only at the
spots described in the Repair Manual.
►The surfaces to be joined must be absolutely
clean and free of grease.
► A suitable cleaner and an activator possibly
delivered along with the glue can be used for
cleaning.
►No cleaner residues may remain on the surfaces
to be joined.
This applies in particular to tapped holes with a
bottom.
► Let the surfaces dry well before applying the
glue.

►Apply the glue only in the areas shown in the
figure if possible.
When applying the glue at an unfavourable spot
or when applying too much glue, the joint may
tear off when loosening.
►Observe the glue producer's instructions for use
and application!
A joint secured by liquid locking compound can be
loosened by heating up to approx. 200 °C.
120771-004
Steel roller chains
Tensioning
Checking the tension of steel roller chains:
►Apply a small load to the tight span.
►Push down the slack span in the middle between
the sprockets with your thumb.
You should be able to push down the slack span
around 2 % of the spacing between the axles.
Example:
Axle spacing (A) = 500 mm
Pushing distance (x) of slack span = approx. 10 mm
Chain connector
►The closed side of chain connector (1) must point
in running direction (L)!

Ferrule fittings
Screwing in
►Cut off the corresponding tube at right angles.
► Do not use a pipe cutter.
In case of pipe bends, the straight pipe end up to
where the bending radius starts must be at least
twice the height of the union nut.
►Slightly deburr the pipe end on the inside and
outside.
► Do not chamfer the pipe end.
►Clean the pipe end.
►Push the union nut (1) and the ferrule (2) on the
pipe.
►Push the pipe against the stop in the connector
(3) and tighten the union nut until the ferrule
seizes the pipe.
This pressure point can be felt because increased
power is needed from here.
The pipe must be fixed securely during assembly
and must not rotate.
►Tighten the union nut by half a rotation beyond
the first pressure point.
►Check the incision at the cutting edge.
A visible collar must fill the space ahead of the
ferrule face end.
The ferrule may rotate, but axial displacement
must not be possible.
►Insert the pre-assembled pipe into the well-oiled
threaded joint.
►Screw on the union nut until the power needed to
do this clearly increases.
►After that, continue to screw the union nut on for
half a turn beyond that point.
► Observe the tightening torques. Page

Non-tight ferrule connection
►If a connection leaks, loosen the union nut until
some oil escapes.
►Then tighten according to instructions.
►Replace the seal (4) if required.

NOTICE
Failure of hydraulic hose lines due to ageing.
Uncontrolled lowering of machine parts.
► Replace hydraulic hose lines 6 years after
manufacture at the latest.
To facilitate identifying of hydraulic hoses, each hose
has the CLAAS part number printed on it.
►Check hydraulic hoses before initial
commissioning and thereafter at least once a
year.
►In the case of damage and ageing, replace
hydraulic hoses.
The date of manufacture can be seen on the hose
fittings (1).

Hose placement
13989-003
NOTICE! Hoses laid in a straight line get shorter as
the hydraulic pressure is built up. Valves may be torn
off.
► Always install hoses with a slight slack.
►Install hoses so that no tension or compression
loads will occur in any operating conditions.
► Check: If you shake the hose line in the
middle between two brackets/connectors
(e.g. clamps), the overall play of the hose
line should be at least 1 cm.
►Do not install hose with a twist.
► Particularly if there is movement at the hose
line.
►Avoid external mechanical impacts on hoses.
► Avoid chafing the hoses against each other
or against components through proper
placement and fastening.
► Keep an adequate distance from
components.
► Keep sharp-edged components covered at
all times.
►When high outside temperatures are involved,
install hose lines at a sufficient distance from
components radiating heat.
► If necessary, protect hose by a protective
guard.

Treatment of sealing faces
Close all oil, coolant and fuel bores thoroughly prior to
treating the sealing faces.
Ensure that when treating sealing faces of
components containing oil, coolant and fuel, no
abrasives are used. Loose particles cause pollution
and damage.
Ensure that no seal residues, rust, lime and
combustion residues end up in open components
(gearbox halves).
Remove sealing residues, rust, lime and combustion
residues only using scraping tools or cleaning agents.

Spare parts
11210-003
WARNING
Use of unauthorised spare parts.
Death or serious injury.
► Spare parts must at least comply with the
technical standards required by the manufacturer
of the implement!
► We recommend using genuine CLAAS spare
parts.
►Please quote the machine identification number
when ordering spare parts or making technical
enquiries.
CLAAS will assume no liability whatsoever for
damage incurred as a result of the use of non-genuine
CLAAS parts, accessories, and ancillary equipment.

Tightening torques for metric standard threads
The tightening torques specified below apply only
when:
–A friction coefficient of µ tot = 0.14 is achieved in
connection with thread lubricant.
To achieve this, a surface protection agent such
as A3C+L, Dacromet or Termosil is
recommended.
–No other tightening torque is specified in the
descriptive text.
–No additional screw retention is used, such as
MK-type bolts or liquid locking compound.
