Storage Information
Before Storage
Before storing your lift truck, clean and inspect as the
following procedures.
z Wipe away grease, oil, etc. adhering to the body of
the truck with waste cloth, and use water, if needed.
z While cleaning the truck, check general condition of
the truck. Especially check the truck body for dents
or damage and tires for wear or nails or stones in
the tread.
z Fill the fuel tank with fuel specified.
z Check for leakage of hydraulic oil, engine oil, fuel, or
coolant, etc.
z Apply grease, where needed.
z Check for looseness of nuts and bolts, especially
hub nuts.
z Check mast rollers to see that they rotate smoothly.
z Prime the oil into the lift cylinders by actuating the lift
lever all the way several times.
z Drain off coolant completely in cold weather, if
antifreeze is not used.
Long Time Storage
Perform the following service and checks in addition to
the “Parking the lift truck” services.
z Taking the rainy season into consideration, park the
machine at a higher and hard ground.
z Avoid parking on soft grounds such as asphalt
ground in summer.
z Dismount the battery from the machine. Even
though the machine is parked indoors, if the place is
hot or humid, the battery should be kept in a dry,
cool place. Charge the battery once a month.
z Apply antirust to the exposed parts which tend to
rust.
z Cover components such as the breather and air
cleaner which may be caught with humidity.
z The machine should be operated at least once a
week. Fill the cooling system, if cooling water is
discharged, and mount the battery. Start the engine
and warm up thoroughly. Move the machine a little
forwards and backwards. Operate the hydraulic
controls several times.
To Operate the Lift Truck After a
Long Time Storage
z Remove covers and antirust from each of the
components and exposed parts.
z Drain the engine crankcase, transmission (clutch
type machine), differential and final reduction gear,
clean the inside of them and add new oil.
z Drain off foreign matter and water from the
hydraulic oil tank and fuel tank.
z Remove the head cover from the engine cylinder.
Oil valves and rocker shaft and check each valve
for proper operation.
z Add cooling water to the specified level.
z Charge the battery and mount it on the machine.
