PRECAUTIONS FOR LONG-TERM STORAGE
When storing the machine for a long period (one month or longer), maintain the machine with attention to the
following points, to prevent decrease in function at the next operation.
3.15.1
WASHING MACHINE
Wash the machine thoroughly, inspect and maintain the travel system components and apply touch-up to the
peeling paint and scratches. Apply grease to the greasing points.
DO not wash the inside of the cab.
When washing the machine, cover the CPU and the electric components to prevent water or steam from splashing
on or contacting with them.
3.15.2
REFILLING OIL/GREASING
Check the level and contamination of the fuel and hydraulic oil. Refill the oil if the level is low, and replace the oil if
the oil is contaminated.
• To prevent condensation in the fuel tank, supply new clean fuel fully to the upper limit.
• Apply a sufficient quantity of anti-rust oil to any parts which rust easily, especially to the exposed area of each
cylinder piston rod.
3.15.3
BATTERY
• To compensate the self-discharge during storage, perform auxiliary charge at least once a month.
• Confirm that the battery power-off switch is set to the "OFF" position to cut off the current.
• Remove the negative (-) terminal from the battery, and remove the battery from the machine for storage.
Be careful not to connect the negative (-) terminal of the battery to the body (ground terminal) with a tool when
removing the battery. It will cause short circuit even when the battery power-off switch is set to "OFF".
Before turning the battery power-off switch to the "O (OFF)" position or removing the terminal of the battery, turn the
starter switch to the "OFF" position and wait 5 minutes or more.
When turning off the battery power-off switch immediately after the engine is stopped, the exhaust gas cleaning
device may be damaged.
3.15.4
COOLANT
If there is a possibility of freezing, mix the antifreeze (non-amine type) into the radiator.
However, normally it is not necessary because long life coolant is already mixed at the time of shipment. See
"LUBRICANT, FUEL & COOLANT SPECIFICATIONS" in Chapter 4.
