Long Term Storage
Before Storage
NOTICE
When storing the machine (1 month or more), set
the machine in the posture shown in the diagram on
the right to protect the cylinder rod.(To prevent
rusting of the cylinder rod).
When putting the machine in storage for a long time (more than one month), do as follows.
Clean and wash all parts, then store the machine indoors. If the machine has to be stored
outdoors, select level ground and cover the machine with canvas.
Completely fill the fuel tank. This prevents moisture from collecting.
Lubricate and change the oil before storage.
Coat the exposed portion of the hydraulic cylinder piston rod with grease.
Disconnect the negative terminals of the battery and cover it or remove it from the machine
and store it
Set the attachment control pedal to the lock position on machines ready for attachments.
Set the stop valve to the LOCK position on machines ready for attachments. Install the blind
plugs to the elbows.
During Storage
If it is necessary to perform the rust-prevention operation while the machine is indoors, open the
doors and windows to improve ventilation and prevent gas poisoning.
During storage, operate and move the machine for a short distance once a month so that a
new film of oil will coat moving parts. At the same time, also charge the battery.
When operating the work equipment, wipe off all the grease from the hydraulic cylinder rods.
If the machine is equipped with an air conditioner, operate the air conditioner for 3 to 5
minutes once a month to lubricate all parts of the air conditioner compressor. Always run the
engine at low idle when doing this. In addition, check the refrigerant level twice a year.
After Storage
NOTICE
If the machine has been stored without carrying out the monthly rust-prevention operation, consult
your CFG construction machinery distributor before using it.
When using the machine after long-term storage, do as follows before using it.
Wipe off the grease from the hydraulic cylinder rods.
Add oil and grease at all lubrication points.
When the machine is stored for a long period, moisture in the air will mix with the oil. Check
the oil before and after starting the engine. If there is water in the oil, change all the oil.
Turn on the battery circuit breaker. The operation method refers to "battery circuit breaker".
