Maintenance 7
Cleaning the engine and the engine compartment
Injury hazard due to hot and moving engine parts!
Hot and moving engine parts can cause injury.
► Do not open the engine cover if the engine is running.
► Let the engine cool down.
► Wear protective clothes.
When cleaning the engine with a water or steam jet, the humidity
penetrating the electronics causes it to fail and leads to engine damage!
► The engine must be cold.
► Do not point the water jet directly at any of the electric sensors such as
temperature and oil pressure switches or control valves.
► Protect all electric parts, such as the alternator, connectors, relays, etc.
from humidity.
► If the water jet is unintentionally pointed at electrical components, dry
them with compressed air and apply contact spray to them
The following aids 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.
• Immediately tighten loose connections.
See chapter "Technical data" for the tightening moments.
Checking pivots and hinges
• Lubricate all mechanical pivot points on the machine
(for example door hinges, joints) and fittings (for example door
arresters) regularly, even if they are not listed in the lubrication plan.
• Check the accelerator and brake-inch pedals for contamination, clean
them if necessary, apply spray oil to the joints.
