Storage Information
Before Storage
Before storing your lift truck, clean and inspect as the
following procedures.
 Wipe away grease, oil, etc. adhering to the body of
the truck with waste cloth, and use water, if needed.
 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.
 Fill the fuel tank with fuel specified.
 Check for leakage of hydraulic oil, engine oil, fuel, or
coolant, etc.
 Apply grease, where needed.
 Check for looseness of nuts and bolts, especially hub
nuts.
 Check mast rollers to see that they rotate smoothly.
 Prime the oil into the lift cylinders by actuating the lift
lever all the way several times.
 Drain off coolant completely in cold weather, if
antifreeze is not used.
 Drain off DEF/Ad-Blue completely for long term
storage. (If not the purity of DEF/Ad-Blue would be
changed to lower quality.)
Long Time Storage
Perform the following service and checks in addition to
the “Parking the lift truck” services.
 Taking the rainy season into consideration, park the
machine at a higher and hard ground.
 Avoid parking on soft grounds such as asphalt
ground in summer.
 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.
 Apply antirust to the exposed parts which tend to rust.
 Cover components such as the breather and air
cleaner which may be caught with humidity.
 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
 Remove covers and antirust from each of the
components and exposed parts.
 Drain the engine crankcase, transmission (clutch
type machine), differential and final reduction gear,
clean the inside of them and add new oil.
 Drain off foreign matter and water from the hydraulic
oil tank and fuel tank.
 Remove the head cover from the engine cylinder. Oil
valves and rocker shaft and check each valve for
proper operation.
 Add cooling water to the specified level.
 Charge the battery and mount it on the machine.
Connect the cables.
 Perform pre-operational checks carefully. (refer to
“Before Starting the Engine”)
 Warm up the machine.
 If deteriorated DEF/Ad-Blue warning lamp turns on
and message appears, drain the fluid in the DEF/Ad-
Blue tank thoroughly and refill with new DEF/Ad-Blue.
 Check level of DEF/Ad-Blue and if necessary refill
DEF/Ad-Blue (refer page.72)
