Measures for maintaining anticorrosive protection
Safety instructions
• When handling chemical substances of any kind, such as solvents, wax, etc.,
observe the specific product-related safety regulations (safety data sheet)!
• When using volatile and easily flammable anticorrosive agents and solvents:
• Ensure adequate room ventilation!
• Do not use unprotected lights or open flames!
• Do not smoke!
• Corrosion on electric connections or components can cause dangerous operating
malfunctions. Therefore check the electric functions of the machine with special care.
Immediately put the machine out of operation if you detect any defects and have
defects rectified immediately.
• Perform work on the electrical system only with the battery disconnected and the engine
stopped!
Cleaning
• If the machine is used in corrosive environment over a longer period of time, we
recommend removing the floor mat in the cabin to avoid collecting corrosive humidity.
• Thoroughly clean machines that are put out of operation over a longer period of time.
• Clean the machine at least once a week. In particular, remove corrosive deposits
(such as salt crusts) as fast as possible.
• Clean the machine with cold running water preferably.
Contrary to the instructions given in Chapter “General maintenance” in the
Operator’s Manual, neither clean the machine with a bristle brush nor with a
steam jet or a high-pressure cleaner. Otherwise the anticorrosive protection
will be heavily affected.
☞If cleaning the machine with these means cannot be avoided, check the
wax coating very carefully and have it renewed or reapplied as required.
If you replace components, check whether they are classified as in
Components coated with anticorrosive wax on page 5-36 and whether they
are subject to special treatment before assembly.
