The machine must only be serviced by qualified personnel authorised by the operating company.

Drain the engine oil at operating temperature – danger of scalding! Wipe off spilled oil, catch running out oil and dispose of environmentally.

If the machine is taken out of operation for a longer period of time, various conditions must be met and maintenance work must be carried out both before and after shut-down ÄChapter 8.8.4 ‘Measures prior to extended shut-down period’ on page 90
It is not necessary to define a maximum storage period if these measures have been performed.
