Maintenance
Cleaning the engine compartment
Caution, turning parts! Do not carry out maintenance work on a hot engine!
☞ Wait at least 10 minutes after stopping the engine
☞ Wear protective gloves and clothing during maintenance work
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.
• The humidity penetrating any such sensors causes them to fail and leads
to engine damage!
Checking screw connections
All screw connections must be checked regularly, even if they are not listed in the mainte-
nance plans.
Tighten loose connections immediately. Refer to chapter “Specifications” for the tightening
torques.
Checking pivots and hinges
All mechanical pivot points on the machine (e.g. door hinges, joints) and fittings (e.g. door
arresters) must be lubricated regularly, even if they are not listed in the lubrication plan.
5.17 Maintenance of attachments and of the work equipment
Correct maintenance and service is absolutely necessary for smooth and continuous oper-
ation, and for an increased service life of the attachments. Observe the lubrication and
maintenance instructions in the Operator's Manuals of the attachments!
