During storage
1)
During storage, operate the machine once a month to apply a fresh film of oil to
the surfaces of the moving parts. Also, charge the battery.
2)
Drive the tracks to prevent rusting.
3)
Rotate the track.
WARNING: If the machine is indoors, open the windows and doors to
ventilate.

Returning to work after storage
When using the machine after long storage, do the following before using it.
1)
Wipe off the grease on the surface of the cylinder piston rod.
2)
Fill all parts with oil and grease.
3)
When the machine has been stored for a long time, water in the atmosphere will
enter the oil. Before starting the engine or after starting the engine, check the oil
in all parts. If there is water in the oil, replace all the oil.
ATTENTION: 1 Under normal climatic conditions, the storage method
described earlier will allow the excavator to be stored for one year. However,
after 6 months of storage, the parts should be rotated for 15 minutes with no
load. At the same time, each part should be filled with lubricant.
2 Before putting the excavator into use again after a long period of storage, do
the necessary work and various checks. After a year of storage, replace the oil
in reducer and hydraulic circuit.
