26. Storing the machine
In case the
LIPCO GSG-NV
is not used for an extended period, you
should perform the following steps:
Check the function of all moving parts and replace worn or dam-
aged parts.
Check valves and fittings.
Check to make sure that all bolts are tightened.
Check oil and grease levels.
Empty all tanks via the valves/drain plugs and clean using fresh
water.
Do not tightly close tanks during storage to prevent mold.
Store unused spray liquid in the containers provided until next
use.
Clean suction filter using fresh water.
To protect the cross-flow fan unit from damage during the winter
months, the unit must be filled with an antifreeze agent mixed
with water after cleaning all parts. (The proportion of anti-freeze
agent to water is based on the expected temperatures.)
Afterwards, rinse all elements of the liquid circulation by means
of the pump; actuate all valves / shut-off gates and nozzles sev-
eral times to ensure that all parts come into contact with the anti-
freeze solution, so they are coated with a protective film.
The anti-freeze solution should remain in the spray unit through-
out the winter; do not drain until there is no longer a danger of
frost in the spring.
The anti-freeze agent prevents corrosion on the pump parts and
aging of seals.
The anti-freeze can be re-used the following winter.
