PRECAUTION ITEMS FOR LONG-TIME STORAGE
Item
Contents of Work
Wash Machine
Wash the machine to remove mud and/or dust.
Supply Oil and
Grease
Check for low level/contamination of lubricating oil. Refill or change as necessary. Grease all joints.
Apply a thin coat of oil to exposed metal and parts susceptible to rust.
(i.e. cylinder rods etc.)
Fill up fuel tank completely to prevent rust in the fuel tank.
Battery
Remove and fully charge the batteries, then store them in a warm place.
If the machine is equipped with the battery disconnect switch, turn the disconnect switch OFF.
Coolant
Check that anti-freeze is within specifications. Use a rust inhibitor.
Thoroughly wash the radiator by water and then dry it.
Prevention
of Dust and
Moisture
Store the machine in a dry garage and cover it.
Tools
Inspect and repair, then store.
Periodic
Operation
Operate the machine at least once a month to lubricate the parts.
At this time, check the coolant and lubrication oil levels. Charge the batteries.
Storing the Machine
WARNING: When servicing indoors for long term
storage, open windows and doors to maintain good
air ventilation to prevent asphyxiation. Check all
lubricants before operating the machine after being
stored.
Apply the parking brake while storing.
IMPORTANT: If the machine is not periodically operated,
damage to hydraulic equipment may result due to
insufficient lubrication.
NOTE: Periodic operation means that a series of operations
such as drive, and loader front lift arms, bucket, and steering
operation are repeated a few times after performing warm-
up.
Before operating the loader front attachment and steering
wheel, remove rust-prevention oil coated on the hydraulic
cylinder rods.
