air pressure in the tires, reliability of seal-
ing, condition of the rust-preventing coat-
ings (availability of protective grease, in-
tegrity of paint, no rust), condition of the
protective devices (integrity and strength of
fastening of the casings, covers). Eliminate
all found faults.
Servicing the tractor when removing it
from storage includes taking the tractor
from the supports, cleaning and as neces-
sary depreservation of the tractor, its parts,
removing all sealing devices, installing the
removed parts, tools to the tractor, check-
ing operation and adjusting the tractor and
its parts.
Requirements to inter-shift storage of
machines
Tractors can be stored on areas and
places of inter-shift storage or on the work
site. All holes, through which atmospheric
precipitate can ingress the inner cavities of
the tractor, must be tightly closed with co-
vers. The batteries must be disconnected.
Requirements to short-time storage
of machines
Put the tractor to storage complete without
removing units and assemblies from the
tractor.
Disconnect the batteries. The level and
density of electrolyte must meet recom-
mendations on servicing and checking bat-
teries. In case of storing the tractors at low
temperatures or longer than one month,
remove the batteries and deliver them to
warehouse.
Requirements to long-time storage of
machines outdoors
Preparing the engine to long-time storage
includes preservation of part surfaces lo-
cated inside the engine (inner preserva-
tion) and flushing the cooling system, seal-
ing the inner surfaces, preservation of the
outer unpainted engine surfaces (outer
preservation), if no hood is available, pack-
ing the engine into a plastic film casing.
When the fuel tanks have no fuel, carry out
preservation with use of volatile inhibiting
agents. Clean and wash the air cleaner,
pour working preservation oil to the tray.
Clean and grease the threaded connec-
tions of the hitch mechanism, hydraulic
systems, steering linkages etc.
Preservation
Temporary rust protection of the tractor units
and systems from action of the environment
during transportation and storage of the tractor
is provided by preservation.
The tractor surfaces to preserve are
cleaned of mechanical impurities, de-
greased and dried. Subject to preservation
are unpainted inner and outer galvanized
surfaces, viewed units of the tractor and in
the cab with rust-protection oil RUST BAN
397. SUMIDERA 397. Material consump-
tion is 0.02 to 0.03 kg per tractor.
The engine inner surfaces are preserved
after running-in of the tractor by pouring
rust-preventive additive PFINDER AP
241. CORTEK VCI 329 through the
coarse filter to fill the cavities with the
preservation agent. Material consumption is
0.05 kg per tractor.
The inner surfaces of the fuel tank are
preserved by spraying RUST BAN 335 af-
ter their making before painting. ML –
5588, the instrument panel after assembly
by spraying RUST BAN 397, SUMIDERA
397 rust-preventive oil on the inner sur-
faces of the panel. The PTO shanks are
preserved by lubricating them with RUST
BAN 335, ML -5888 rust-preventive oil. Ma-
terial consumption is 0.1 kg per tractor.
The units (the radiator and fuel tank filler
neck, breathers, cylinder rods) are pre-
served with polyethylene film casings. Ma-
terial consumption is 0.66 kg per tractor.
