If the machine is to function satisfactorily and at lowest possible cost, it requires careful maintenance.
Lubrication and service chart
The section “Lubrication and service chart” describes the maintenance work which the operator a should carry out. If certain operations require trained workshop personnel and special equipment, this will be indicated. See page 128.
Service history
After each completed service at a workshop authorised by Volvo CE, the Service History should be filled in, see page 155. The Service History is a valuable document, which can be referred to when for example selling the machine.
Arrival and delivery inspections
Before the machine leaves the factory, it is tested and adjusted. The dealer must also, if the warranty is to apply, carry out arrival and delivery inspections according to the applicable form, which must be signed.
Delivery instructions
When handing the machine over, the dealer must give the buyer delivery instructions according to the applicable form, which must be signed, if the warranty is to apply.
Service programmes
The Service Programme is to be used in connection with warranty inspections and maintenance carried out by a workshop authorised by Volvo CE. The intervals recommended between checks, oil changes and lubrication apply provided that the machine is used under normal environmental and operating conditions.
Warranty inspection
Two warranty inspections should be carried out at a workshop authorised by Volvo CE, the first at 100 operating hours and the second at the latest at 1000 operating hours. The carrying out of these warranty inspections is a condition for the warranty to apply. At these inspections there are, among other measures, oil and fluid changes, which must be carried out before the ordinary intervals.
Maintenance
Regarding intervals for other maintenance, see the Service Programme or the Lubrication and Service chart in this chapter.
Condition test
Condition tests are carried out at a workshop authorised by Volvo CE and provide information about the general condition of the machine. The condition test is carried out as a supplementary work to the service programme.
Cleaning the machine
The machine should be cleaned regularly with conventional car care products in order to eliminate the risk of damage to the paint finish and other surfaces on the machine.
IMPORTANT! Avoid using strong cleaning agents or chemicals in order to minimise the risk of damage to the paint finish. NOTE! Daily clean the areas on the machine where dust, chips and similar may collect in order to minimise the risk of fire. Recommendations for cleaning the machine
Q Q Q Q Place the machine in a place intended for cleaning.
Follow the instructions supplied with the car care product.
The water temperature must not exceed 60 °C (140 °F).
If high-pressure wash is used, keep a distance of at least 20–30 cm (8–12 in) between nozzle and machine surface. Too high pressure and too short distance may cause damage. Protect electrical leads in an appropriate way.
IMPORTANT! If using a high-pressure wash, pay attention to the decals since they easily can come loose.
Q Q Q Q Use a soft sponge. Finish by rinsing the whole machine with only water. Always lubricate the machine after washing. Touch-up the paint finish when required.
Paint finish maintenance
Q
Q Q
Q Machines which are used in corrosive environment suffer more from rust than others. As a preventive measure it is recommended that the paint finish should be maintained every sixth months. At first clean the machine. Apply Dinol 77B (or corresponding transparent waxy anti-rust agent) at a thickness of 70–80 µ. A protective layer of underseal Dinitrol 447 (or corresponding) may be applied under the mudguards where mechanical wear is expected.
Touching up paint finish
Q Q Q Check if there are any damaged areas of the paint finish. At first clean the machine. Rectify any damage to paint finish in a professional way.
