7. LONG-TERM STORAGE
7.1 BEFORE STORING MACHINE
CAUTION
Keep the machine in the "Travelling posture" shown in
the figure on the right during long-
term storage to
protect the cylinder rod. See “Operation 3.7 Travelling
Posture of Machine” for details. (To prevent rust on the
cylinder rod)
Store the machine as described below when storing it for one
month or longer:
• Wash and clean each section of the machine and store
indoor.
If you have to leave it outdoors, select a flat location where the machine is not likely to be exposed
to flood or other disasters and cover the machine.
• Fill up the fuel tank to full. Doing so prevent the accumulation of water.
• Refuel, grease, and change the oil without fail.
• Apply grease to the exposed section of the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder.
• Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery and put on a cover, or dismount the battery from
the machine for storage.
• If the temperature drops to 0 ºC or below, add antifreezing solution. Contact us or our sales service
agency for the mixing amount of antifreeze solution.
7.2 DURING STORAGE
If you have to perform antirust operation indoors, open the window and entrance for better
ventilation to prevent gas poisoning.
• Be sure to operate the machine once a month during the storage to maintain the oil film at
lubricating section. Charge the battery at the same time.
• Before operating the crane, wipe off grease applied to the exposed section of the piston rod of the
hydraulic cylinder.
• Operate the cooler at low idle for 3 - 5 minutes once a month to keep the oil in all parts of the A/C
compressor. In addition, inspect the amount of refrigerant gas twice a year.
