NOTICE
Keep away from fire when adding antifreeze.

Attentions for using the storage battery:
1.
If the temperature goes down, the capacity of the storage battery will go down too. If the
charging ratio of the storage battery is low, the electrolytes may be frozen. Please ensure the
charging ratio is near 100% and try to preserve heat, so that it is easy to start the next day.
2.
If the storage battery is frozen,
never
charge the battery or start the engine. Refer to
CHAPTER I 8.16 Maintenance of Storage Battery
, to disassemble the battery
and put it into a hothouse or warm water (
NEVER
let water enter the battery). Warm it to
15 slowly, otherwise
℃
an explosion may occur.
3.
Please use an anti-alpine storage battery in an anti-alpine area.

Follow-up after every working day:
In order to prevent the materials from freezing on the machine which may affect it working the next
day, please do as follows:
1.
Completely clean the silt and water on the machine to prevent silt, water or snow entering the
sealed parts which may freeze or break the sealed parts.
2.
Park the machine on the dry and hard ground. If that is impossible, park the machine on a
wooden board, which can prevent the tires from freezing on the ground.
3.
The capacity of storage battery will obviously go down in cold weather. So cover it or move
the storage battery to a warm place, and install it the next day.
4.
When the temperature is below 0 and there is no antifreeze in coolant
℃
water, please open
the water drain valves located at the bottom of the water tank and the engine. Then drain all
the coolant water in the evaporators of the cooling system and the air-condition system (if
assembled) to prevent cold cracks. If antifreeze is added, please follow the rules on the
nameplate of the antifreeze.
After cold weather:
After the weather is warm, the relative parts should use the proper engine oil, fuel and hydraulic oil
that are appropriate for the temperature.
