Cleaning and spraying the lift mast chain
DANGER
Lift mast chains are safety elements. Using the
incorrect cleaning materials may damage the
chains.
Do not use cleaner solvent, chemical cleaners, or
fluids that are corrosive or contain acid or chlorine
(see Consumables).
If the lift mast chain is so dusty that penetration
of the lubricating oil cannot be guaranteed, the
chain must be cleaned.
 Place a collection container under the lift
mast.
 Clean the lift mast chain with paraffin
derivatives, such as benzine.
Take note of the manufacturer's safety infor-
mation. When cleaning with a steam jet, do
not use additives.
 After cleaning, immediately use com-
pressed air to remove any water remaining
on the surface of the chain and in the chain
joints.
The chain should be moved several times
during this process.
 Immediately apply Linde chain spray to the
chain, moving the chain while doing so.
