Shutting down and disassembly
6. Shutting down and disassembly
1. Set the attachment down on a horizontal and stable surface before
dismantling from the carrier.
2. Switch off the carrier machine drive.
3. Ignition on, actuate all hydraulic valves in the control circuits for the
attachment until all of the pressure in the attachment or in the hydraulic lines
has been dissipated.
4. Secure the attachment or the carrier machine to prevent erroneous or
unauthorised starting up.
5. Disconnect the mechanical and hydraulic connections to the carrier.
Observe the additional requirements for shut down as described in the chapter
Shut down, section Safety instructions .
Environmental pollution!
Dismantling, maintenance and cleaning can cause hydraulic fluid to leak from
the hydraulic lines of the attachment and carrier!
Leaking hydraulic fluid or lubricating grease can pose a hazard of
environmental damage.
Oils and greases must be collected and be disposed of in an environmentally
friendly manner (observe local regulations).
• Perform shut down as described above.
• Place a suitable container (e.g. collecting basin) under the disconnecting
point to collect the hydraulic fluid.
• Firstly, disconnect the pressure line (label: PRESSURE LINE) from the
outrigger of the carrier.
• Then, disconnect the tank line (label: TANK LINE).
• Seal the hydraulic lines so that foreign bodies such as sand and water cannot
penetrate.
• Disconnect all other lines, if present.
• Leaking hydraulic fluid must be disposed of in an environmentally friendly
manner (observe local regulations).
• Dismantling takes place in reverse order to assembly, see Assembly and
commissioning/Mechanical connection
• Store the attachment in a suitable, secure and dry location.
• For the requirements for extended shut down and commissioning after
extended shut down, see Maintenance and service .
