5.4.14 Protective Measures for Long Time Storage
If the machine will be out of use for more than one month, you should carry out following protective steps to
ensure the performance of machine won‘t be suffered during storage period.
Protective steps for extended period storage
Clean machine body completely, repair any problem.
Add lubricant and grease lubricant
Check whether lubricant is insufficient or dirty or not. Add grease
lubricant to lubrication demanded parts. Wipe lubricant on the possible
rusting parts.
Remove battery, charge sufficiently, then store.
Add antirust in the water, and add antifreeze if the cooling water may be
frozen; or exhaust cooling water, place the ―no water in radiator‖ label in
cabin after water exhausted.
Dustproof and waterproof work
Store the machine in dry garage and cover it.
Check and repair, and then store.
Lubrication operation—
Engine idle at low revs for a few
minutes
The parts will rust if the lubricant velum is demolished, causing
abnormal abrasion in next operation. In order to prevent this happening,
run the machine at least once every month to lubricate parts. Meanwhile,
check cooling water and lubricant level.
Note
―Lubrication operation‖ means warming up machine and repeat travel, swing, digging operation 2 or 3
times.
Even if the machine is out of use, the lubricant and grease lubricant will also be aging. So, the machine
should be get sufficient inspection before used.
