STORING THE BACKHOE
IMPORTANT :
• When
storing
the backhoe, install the dust caps
onto the hydraulic fittings of the backhoe to
prevent contamination.
1. Store the backhoe in a dry place.
2. Apply a coat of grease to all exposed rods of the
cylinder to prevent rusting.
3. If you store the backhoe outside, cover the backhoe
with suitable weather cover.
Weather cover will keep moisture, dirt, and other
airborne debris from getting into the system.
