Storage Information
Before Storage
To place the machine in storage for an extended
period of time, the following measures must be
taken to ensure that it can be returned to operation
with minimal service.
1. After every part is washed and dried, the
machine should be housed in a dry building.
Never leave it outdoors. In case it has to be left
outdoors, lay wooden boards on the ground,
park the machine on the boards and cover it
with canvas, etc.
2. Lubricate, grease and replace oil before storage.
3. Apply a thin coat of grease to exposed
hydraulic cylinder piston rods.
4. Cover batteries after removing terminals, or
remove them from the machine and store
separately.
During Storage
Drive the truck for a short period at least once a
month. This coats moving part surfaces with a new
film of oil. Charge the battery at this same time.
After Storage
After storage (when it is kept without cover or rust
preventive and once is month operation has not
been made), you should apply the following
treatment before operation.
1. Remove the drain plug on hydraulic tank and
drain mixed water.
2. Wipe off grease from hydraulic cylinder piston
rod.
3. Measure specific gravity and check that battery
is charged.
4. Drive at low speed to make sure inside of
transfer is well oiled.
