5 Maintenance
Cleaning the engine compartment
Caution, turning parts – risk of accidents! Do not clean when the engine is running!
☞Wait at least 10 minutes after stopping the engine
☞Wear protective gloves and clothing during maintenance
The engine must be cold before cleaning it with a water or steam jet!
☞Do not point the jet directly at the electric sensors such as the oil pressure
switch or the electronics on the hydraulic pump.
• The humidity penetrating any such sensors causes them to fail and leads
to engine damage!
The following auxiliary means are recommended for cleaning:
• High-pressure cleaner
• Steam jet
Checking threaded fittings
• Check all threaded fittings regularly, even if they are not listed in the maintenance
plans.
• Retighten loose threaded fittings immediately. Refer to chapter “Technical data” for the
tightening torques.
Checking pivots and hinges
All mechanical pivot points on the machine (door hinges, joints, for example) and fittings
(door arresters, for example) must be lubricated regularly, even if they are not listed in the
lubrication plan.
