3.9 Maintenance work

3.9.1 Preliminary remarks

Always carry out the prescribed maintenance work and maintenance measures on time in order to maintain the safety, operational readiness and long service life of the machine.

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

3.9.2 Working on the engine

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

When working on the air filter no dirt should fall into the air duct. Do not work on the hot exhaust - danger of burning!

Store used filters and other oil contaminated materials in a separate, specially marked container and dispose of environmentally.

3.9.3 Cleaning work

Do not perform cleaning work while the motor is running. Allow the engine to cool down before starting cleaning work. Do not use gasoline or other easily inflammable substances for cleaning.

3.9.4 Measures for longer shut-down periods

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 8.9.7 ‘Measures prior to extended shut-down period’ on page 94

It is not necessary to define a maximum storage period if these measures have been performed.

3.9.5 After maintenance work

Reassemble all guards and protections.

3.10 Repair

Identify a defect machine with a warning sign. Only operate the machine after it has been repaired. When replacing safety relevant components, only original spare parts must be used.

Repairs must only be performed by an expert/qualified person. When performing welding work on the machine you should cover the fuel tank with insulating material.
