Measures when taking the truck out of service for a long period
If the truck is stored for a long period, carry out
the following corrosion protection measures.
When taking the truck out of service for
over two months, park it in a clean and dry
enclosed space which is also well ventilated
and frost-free. Also perform the following
measures:
Measures before taking out of service
– Thoroughly clean the truck.
– Cover all blank moving parts lightly with oil
or grease.
– Check the condition and specific gravity of
the battery. Service the battery according
to the instructions of the manufacturer.
(Follow the manufacturer’s instructions.)
– Spray all open electric contacts with a
suitable contact spray.
CAUTION
– Jack up the truck so that all wheels are clear
of the ground. This measure will prevent a
permanent deformation of the tyres.
– Cover the truck with a cotton cover and
protect against dust.
CAUTION
We do not recommend using a plastic foil as this
enhances the formation of condensate.
If the truck is to be taken out of service for a yet
longer period, contact your Service.
Recommissioning after taking out of
service
If the truck has been out of service for over six
months, it must be inspected carefully before
recommissioning. Similar to the accident
prevention check, the inspection should also
cover all points relating to truck safety.
– Thoroughly clean the truck.
– Check the condition and specific gravity of
the battery, charge the battery if necessary.
– Perform the services as before initial
operation.
– Take the truck into service.
– During commissioning check the following
points in particular:
• Drive, control, steering
• Brake (service brake, parking brake)
• Trailer coupling
