9. Technical service and storage
The lifetime and reliability of the unit's operation depend strictly on the properly performed
service and maintenance.
After the first 10 hours of operation, tighten all screw connections. Each time after finishing
work, the aggregate should be carefully inspected, cleaned of soil residues and dust.
Before prolonged standstill, for example in winter, the machine's working elements that come
in direct contact with the soil should be preserved by lubricating their surface with oil. And
the defects of paint coats should be supplemented.
The hydraulic hoses must be cleaned, the plugs protected against any dirt or moisture and
placed in appropriate sockets on the machine.
When carrying out maintenance and repair work, wear suitable protective clothing and gloves.
Maintenance operations should be carried out after ensuring adequate clearance around the
machine.
The aggregate should be stored on an even, hardened, horizontal surface in a dry, well-
ventilated place, sheltered from atmospheric influences in a way that does not pose a threat to
humans and animals.
During storage the aggregate must rest on the ground in an unfolded state.
10. Disassembly and cassation
Disassembly of the machine should be carried out by persons familiar with its construction
and appropriate qualifications, equipped with appropriate personal protective equipment and
working clothes. These operations should be performed with the use of appropriate tools after
placing the machine in rest position on a flat and hard surface.
Due to the magnitude of forces that may exceed 200N, when dismantling individual
components such as the frame, wings, etc., use lifting devices using constructional nodes as
hooks.
Lifting devices used during dismantling may only be operated by a qualified person.
The machine must be deleted after it has been completely dismantled. Used lubricants and oil
from the hydraulic cylinder should be passed through the collection network of gas stations or
directly to the refinery.
The disassembled aggregate should be returned to a scrap collection point or as secondary
material.
