14 Cleaning
Cleaningthevehicleandallitscomponentsisfundamentalforittobekeptinproperworkingorder.
14.1 Machine cleaning
Proceedasfollowsforacorrectcleaningprocess:
– Switchtheengineoff,removetheignitionkeyandwaituntilthevariouscomponentscooldown.
– Wearthesuitableprotectiveclothing(gloves,masks,overalls,etc.).
– Donotuseflammableliquids,acidsorproductsthatmaychemicallyattackthevehiclecomponents.
– Usewatertosoftendirtthatstickstothesurface.
– AskyourDIECIdealerfortouchuppainttorepairminordefectsinthevehiclebodywork.
– Checkthat allthesafetystickersare present.Replaceanythathave beenlostor removedforcleaning
purposes.
– Useapressurewashertocleantheexternalpartofthevehicleandtheenginecompartment,bearingthe
followinginmind:
– Makesurethetopupcaps(radiator,oiltank,fueltank,etc.)areclosedwell.
– Protectthecontrolboxesandconnectorsfromwaterinfiltrations.
– Donotoperatewithapressureandwatertemperaturethatexceeds100barand80°,respectively.
– Holdthewashernozzleataminimumdistanceof40cmfromtherelativesurface.
– Donotdirectthejetatanysinglepointbutwashwithwidestrokes.
– Theinsideofthevehicleisdelicateandcannotbecleanedwithapressurewasher.
Electrical components
– Ifapressurizedjetisused,trynottowettheelectricalcomponents,suchasthealternatorandthestarter
motor.
– Ifwateraccidentallyfallsintotheelectricalsystem,itcouldcausethevehicletomalfunction.
– Donotusewaterorsteamtocleantheelectricalsystem,sensorsandconnectors.
Mechanical Components
– Donotcleanthemovingelementsorhotsurfaces,allowallpartstocoolasatemperaturechangecould
damagethem.
14.2 Glasses cleaning
– Thecabwindows,lightsandrearviewmirrorsmustbewashedoftenwithsoapywater.
– Afterwashinghasbeencompleted,drythoroughly;donotleaveanystainsormarkswhichmaylimitor
obstructthedriver'svisibility.
14.3 Cleaning the cab
– Cleansoftupholsteryinthecabwithacloththathasbeendippedinasolutionofwateranddetergent
andthenthoroughlywrung.
– Thedriver’sseatandthefloormustbecleanedwithavacuumcleanerand/orastiffbrush.Ifnecessary,
useadampclothtoremoveanystubbornstains.
– Cleantheseatbeltwithaspongethathasbeensoakedinhotsoapywater,andletitdryonitsown.
