STORAGE
If the Telescopic Forklift will not be operated for a
long period of time, prepare and store it using the pro-
cedures as follows.
Before Storage
Perform the following prior to placing the machine in
storage:
1
Wash off the entire machine.
2. Lubricate all grease fittings as described in the
Lubrication chapter of this manual.
3. Change engine oil as outlined in the Service &
Storage chapter of this manual.
4. Apply grease to all exposed hydraulic cylinder rod
areas.
5. Disconnect the battery cable clamps and cover the
battery or remove the battery from the machine and
store it separately.
6. If the ambient temperature (at anytime during the
storage period) is expected to drop below freezing,
make sure the engine coolant is either completely
drained from the radiator and engine block or that the
amount of anti-freeze in it is adequate to keep the
coolant from freezing. Refer to the separate engine
manual provided for anti-freeze recommendations and
quantities.
During Storage
1. About once each month, connect the battery and
check all fluid levels to make sure they are at the prop-
er level before starting the engine.
2. Start the engine and allow it to run until it warms
up and then move the machine a short distance to help
relubricate the internal parts. Run the engine until the
battery has a chance to recharge and then shut it off.
IMPORTANT:
If it is desired to operate the
hydraulic cylinders at this time, BE SURE to wipe
the protective grease (and any adhering dirt) from
the cylinder rods prior to starting the engine. After
operating, BE SURE to recoat the cylinder rods
with grease if the machine is going to be returned
to storage.
2. Remove the access cover and wash the inlet screen
with clean solvent. Remove the sump filter strainer
from the bottom inside of the reservoir. Wash it also. If
the strainer has any damage, holes, etc. it should be
replaced.
3. Flush out the bottom of the tank with clean
hydraulic oil. Re-install all cleaned components and
put the top back on the reservoir with a new gasket.
Clean the filter/breather cap.
4. Fill the tank with fresh oil. Follow specifications
found in Lubrication chapter of this manual.
IMPORTANT:
Hydraulic fluid and filters should
be replaced any time contamination is present
before the normally scheduled change.
WARNING
Escaping hydraulic oil under pressure can
have sufficient force to penetrate the skin.
Before applying pressure to the hydraulic sys-
tem, be sure all connections are tight and
lines and hoses are not damaged. Use a piece
of wood or cardboard to search for suspected
leaks. If injured by escaping hydraulic oil, see
a doctor familiar with this type of injury at
once or gangrene may result.
