2.2.1 Storage places and storage conditions

The machine can be stored under a shelter or in an open-air space. The machine can be stored in closed unheated areas or in closed air-conditioned areas as well.

Before the machine is stored, it must be checked and its preservative treatment must be verified.

The stored machine must be placed horizontally on a flat and solid surface,

If the machine is equipped with tyres, it must be stored horizontally on supports so that the clearance between the bearing surface and tyres is not less than 80 mm (3.15 in).

Access holes, fuel fill holes, exhaust pipes and other holes, through which atmospheric precipitations can penetrate in internal cavities of parts of the individual components the machine, must be sealed hermetically with plugs, stoppers, caps, using waterproof adhesive tape and/or other special means. Controls must be adjusted in such positions, in which there is no danger that the machine starts operating.

If the machine is equipped with a safety cover of the dashboard, this cover must be secured to prevent the machine from operating.

If the machine is equipped with a cab, the cab must be locked to prevent the machine from operating.

The key must not be in the ignition box of the machine and the battery disconnecter must be in the position “OFF”.

Terminals of the battery must be disconnected. The electrolyte level must correspond to recommendations of the manufacturer.

If the machine is stored for a time interval longer than 2 months, the batteries must be removed from the machine and stored in special areas.

Operating fluids of the machine must be refilled up to the levels specified in this Operating Manual.

A machine stored for a time interval longer than 2 months must be checked regularly according to the following instructions:

- every 6 months in mild climatic conditions,

- every 3 months in tropical, cold, arctic and seaside conditions.

Each of the machines, on which the preservative treatment was carried out, must be provided with instructions for removing the preservatives.

Instructions for removing the preservatives must specify procedures to remove the preservatives and procedures to reinstall the dismantled parts of the machine. Besides, a list of tools, instruments and devices must be specified, which are required for performing the working procedures.

The working procedures must contain safety precautions in accordance with relevant national regulations.
