Servicing and care of hot dip galvanised
parts
The formation of white rust is only a surface
coating and has no adverse effect on the
anti-corrosion properties of galvanising. In
order to minimise the potential for the
formation of white rust the following
precautions should be taken:
- Ensure there is adequate air circulation
when storing hot dip-galvanised parts.
- After winter journeys it is recommended
that surfaces are washed with clean
water.
Spare Parts
Spare parts are safety critical parts! For this
reason when fitting spare parts in our
products we recommend the use of original
AL-KO parts or those parts that we have
explicitly approved. The reliability, safety and
suitability of parts designed especially for
our products, has been determined using a
special test procedure. In spite of constantly
monitoring the market we are unable to
assess or vouch for other products.
If repair work or servicing is required, AL-KO
have a large network of AL-KO service
stations throughout Europe. To establish the
correct spare parts required you should
always quote the model and type of overrun
device in question along with the ETI No.
which is stamped into the overrun device
housing. The ETI number for the Euro
Overrun can be found on the handbrake
lever (See Fig. 45).
For Troubleshooting and Fault Finding,
