11.3 Storage
After finishing work with the machine clean it up from the residues and rinse it with running
water. When using pressure washer or air lines do not direct discharge stream at any
vulnerable element such as stickers, bearings, U-joints of the shafts etc. It is recommended
to carry out a thorough inspection of the machine after it has been cleaned and dried. Check
the condition of all assemblies and if necessary carry out repairs or part replacements. If the
paint coat is found damaged, rub down the old paint from the place requiring renovation.
Then wipe the area clean off dust with a piece of wet cloth and degrease it before applying a
layer of primer. Allow the primer to dry thoroughly before applying a layer of top coat. It is
recommended to keep the machine indoors to minimalize results of direct exposure on
harmful environmental factors causing corrosion and aging of materials. It is imperative to
grease all separable connections and height adjustment winding mechanism before and also
occasionally during lengthy downtimes (e.g. post-season winter storage). Use anticorrosives
based on silicon to protect pins and threaded bolts against rust. Spray the tires at least 2-3
times a year with UV-protectant spray for rubber surfaces to reduce damage resulting from
sun exposure. When in storage, it is recommended to move the machine around slightly at
least once a month in order not to let the tires to loose shape. Routine check of tire pressure
should be done at least once a month.
