STORING THE MACHINE
The following procedure applies when the machine is to be stored for one month ormore.
Storage preparation
1 Park the machine on flat, level ground. 2 Lubricate the machine at all grease points. 3 Retract the dipper cylinder rod completely. 4 Lubricate the exposed surfaces of the cylinder rods or protect the cylinder rods by applying a protective film (aerosol spray part no. S1403568). NOTE: When using the machine after storage, the protective film will be naturally eliminated.
5 Release the pressure in the hydraulic system. 6 Clean all outer engine components with diesel fuel. 7 While the engine is still warm, drain the oil from the crankcase and fill with anticorrosive oil up to the MAX mark on the dipstick. 8 Drain the fuel tank and fill it with a solution of 90% diesel fuel and 10% anticorrosive oil. 9 Run the engine at idle speed for five minutes until the anticorrosive oil has reached the lines and hoses, the filters, the pump, the turbocharger and the injectors. 10Remove the rocker arm covers. Spray a solution of 90% diesel fuel and 10% anticorrosive oil into the rocker arm chamber. Install the rocker arm covers. 11Plug the air filter intake and the exhaust pipe outlet. 12Disconnect the electrical circuit using the battery master switch. 13Remove the batteries. TRIM THIS EDGE
