3.6.2
During storage
WARNING
Risk of poisoning when engine is running indoors! Open doors
and windows before starting the engine indoors.
During storage, always operate the machine once a month
so that the oil film renews on moving parts and on the sur-
face of components. Also charge the battery.
Wipe off all the grease from the hydraulic cylinder rod before
operating the work equipment.
If the machine is equipped with an air conditioner, operate it
for 3 to 5 minutes once a month to lubricate the compressor.
Have the engine run at low idle during this operation. Check
the refrigerant level twice a year.
If the machine is equipped with a central lubrication system,
intermediate lubrication must be carried out every month.
3.6.3
After storage
NOTICE
If a machine has to be used although the monthly corrosion pro-
tection measures have not been carried out, please contact your
Komatsu distributor.
Proceed as follows before using a machine after long-term stor-
age:
Wipe the grease from the hydraulic piston rods.
Refill oil and grease at all lubrication points.
When a machine is stored for a long period, moisture from
the ambient air will enter the oil. Check the oil for accumula-
tion of water before and after starting the engine. If there is
water in the oil, change the oil.
For lubricating the machine, see chapter 5.7 “Maintenance
schedule” (5-24).
