Storage
Service prior to daily and short terms storage
.
Wash the tractor and keep it clean.
Refill the fuel tank to prevent water condensation and corrosion.
Lower all implements on the mat before parking the tractor.
If you want to shut down the tractor for a long period of time, consult an authorized service.
For daily or short term storage
Clean the tractor and remove any dirt accumulated during work.
Refill the fuel tank to prevent water condensation and corrosion.
Lower all tractor implements onto the mat.
Park the tractor in a covered and dry place, if this is not possible, cover the machine with a solid waterproof
material (tarpaulin).
Under very cold conditions, it is recommended to remove the battery and store it in a warm, dry place.
Thanks to this measure, the tractor can be started up smoothly if necessary.
If the outside temperature falls below 0 °C, completely change the antifreeze or drain the refrigerant to
protect the engine from damage due to the freezing of the coolant.
Important:
When washing the tractor ensure that the water does not get near electrical
components or the oil filter points.
To prevent short circuits remove the ignition key.
Do not wash the tractor when the engine is running.
Long-term storage
If the tractor is not to be used for a longer period of time, clean it in the same way as for a short-term
shutdown.
Drain the oil and replace it with new one. Allow the engine to run for approx. 5 min to ensure that all new oil
is pumped through the entire engine.
Drain the refrigerant from the radiator and remove the ignition key.
Put a tag with the inscription 'No refrigerant' on both the key and the steering wheel. Add grease, i.e. oil, to
all lubrication points on the tractor.
Check the pressure values and all of them increase slightly. Lower all implements onto the mat and park the
tractor in a covered, dry place.
Using the clutch disconnection arm, disconnect the clutch. Support each tire with a piece of wood to protect
it.
Disconnect the battery.
Important:
After refilling the engine with the coolant run the engine for approx. 5-10 min. at
1 500-2 000 rpm every month as a corrosion prevention measure. Either removes the battery or the
negative terminal as mouse damage to wiring can cause short circuits and fires. Remove the ignition
key and store in a safe place.
Re-use after long term storage
Perform a complete check of all oil fillings and coolant. Reinstall the battery and idle the engine for 30 min. to
ensure optimum engine service life.
Fuel saving tips
To save fuel and extend the life of the oil in the tractor, keep the following in mind:
Air cleaning system
- Clean the air filtration system on a regular basis to avoid dust accumulation.
- Every 50 hours and every day in sandy / dusty conditions.
- Clean the air filter element with compressed air from a sufficient distance to prevent its damage.
- If the rubber ring is torn or stretched, replace it. Install the new seal in the correct place and check for
tightness.
- If air leaks through the hose couplers, check for leaks and repair them.
Note: If the air purification system is not properly maintained, premature wear of the piston rings and
boots occurs, resulting in problems such as loss of engine power, excessive fuel or oil consumption.
