Zusammenfassung:A header assembly of an agricultural harvester, includes: a rotatable shaft; a torque limiter assembly coupled with the rotatable shaft, the torque limiter assembly including: a driving element coupled with the rotatable shaft; a driven element coupled with the driving element which is configured for selectively transmitting a torque to the driven element; an input seal element including at least one aperture; and an automatic lubrication mechanism coupled with the driven element, the automatic lubrication mechanism including a movable piston, the movable piston and the input seal element together at least partially forming a chamber therebetween configured for releasably containing a lubricant, the movable piston configured for forcing the lubricant out of the chamber through the at least one aperture so as to lubricate the driving element and the driven element.
