Storage
Preparing for storage
• The following procedure applies when the machine
is to be stored for a month or more. Store the ma-
chine on flat, level ground, inside a building or, if not
possible, outside and covered with a tarpaulin. Be-
fore storing the machine, carry out the following op-
erations:
1. Clean the machine.
2. Make sure that the machine has no damaged or miss-
ing parts. Replace them if necessary.
3. Retract the cylinder rods as for as possible and lower
the boom until the attachment is resting on the ground.
Lower the dozer blade to the ground.
4. Grease the machine thoroughly. The exposed surfaces
of the cylinder rods should be greased or covered with a
protective film. Consult your CASE CONSTRUCTION
Dealer.
NOTE:
when the machine resumes service, the film will
disappear automatically.
5. While the engine is still warm, drain the oil sump, re-
place the oil filter and fill with specified oil. Check the
oil level and add more if necessary.
6. Clean or replace the air filter element.
7. Check the level of coolant solution. If the machine
is within
100 h
of the next scheduled coolant change,
change the coolant now.
8. Remove the battery, clean the battery housing, and
check that there is no adhesion of battery fluid. Store
the battery safely in a cool and dry place where tem-
perature is
0 °C
(
32 °F
) or more. Alternatively, cut-off
the cable from the negative (-) terminal of the battery,
or turn the battery disconnect switch to the OFF posi-
tion.
9. Plug the air cleaner inlet and the exhaust pipe.
10. Remove the starter key, put the decal "NO OPERA-
TION" on the console, and set the safety lock lever to
rearward position (LOCK position).
11. Lock the engine door, and the cab door.
