the forks and tag them with the lift truck serial number. For
best protection, operate your internal combustion engine lift
truck for a short period each month.
The following storage procedures are for conditions and
temperatures above 0 °C (32 °F). Adjust these procedures
for local conditions and any changes in conditions during
storage. The preparations necessary for storage are also
determined from the following conditions:
•
Short-term storage is from one to six months. Long-term
storage is over six months.
•
Storage Location. A lift truck stored indoors will not
require as much external protection as a lift truck stored
outdoors.
Short-Term Storage
Perform the following steps to prepare your lift truck for
storage from one to six months:
1.
Check lubricant and fluid levels. Completely fill the fuel
tank. Make sure the coolant mixture will protect cooling sys-
tem and engine to lowest temperature expected during
storage. Make sure all caps and dipsticks are installed cor-
rectly.
2.
Fully lower the mast. If lift truck is equipped with forks, tilt
mast
FORWARD
until the tips of the forks touch the floor.
Apply a thin coat of fresh, high grade SAE 30 or 40 weight
engine oil to the exposed cylinder rods. If the forks are
removed, tilt mast
BACKWARD
until cylinders are com-
pletely retracted. This protects the cylinder rods.
3.
Check that all switches and accessories are in the
OFF
position.
4.
Activate each control lever to relieve hydraulic pressure.
5.
Install blocks, front and rear, at the drive wheels. If the lift
truck must be left on an incline, put blocks on the downhill
side of all wheels so that the lift truck cannot move. DO
NOT USE THE PARKING BRAKE.
6.
Disconnect the battery cables from the battery. Apply a
protective coating to the cable connectors and battery ter-
minals to prevent corrosion.
7.
Check the tire pressure, if applicable. Make sure the tires
have the correct pressure (see the Nameplate.)
8.
Clean the lift truck and engine compartment to prevent
corrosion.
