12. Storage, Decomissioning & Disposal
•
Tyres – When extended storage is anticipated, the machines should be blocked up so the weight
does not rest on the tyres, and inflation pressure reduced to 1 bar (15 lbf/in²). Storage of such
machines should be under cover if possible: otherwise tyres should be protected from the
elements by an opaque waterproof covering.
If it is not possible to block up the machine, inflation pressure in the tyres should be increased to
25% above the rated pressure for the actual load on the tyre in storage condition.
The storage area surface should be firm, reasonably level, well drained and free of all oil, fuel or
grease. Clean 8-19mm (0.25–0.75in) gravel under each tyre is desirable if the area is not paved.
Do not store on blacktop or oil stabilised surfaces.
Except in very cold weather, stored machines should be moved occasionally, at least once every
six months, so the same section of the tyre is not always under strain from deflection.
Inflation in the tyres must be adjusted to the recommended service pressure before shipping or
putting a stored machine into service.
• Run air conditioning periodically to prevent the seals from drying out.
• Check fuel tank is full of diesel.
12.4 Decomissioning
Before placing the machine into storage:-
• Thoroughly wash down the exterior of the machine and remove any build up of dirt etc.
• Repair all damaged paint work to prevent further corrosion.
• Grease all greasing points.
• Start and warm up the engine. Drain the engine oil and refill with clean fresh oil. Refer to the
engine manufacturers handbook for further information on prolonged engine storage with regards
to anti corrosion oils and fluids.
• Check hydraulic oil level and top up as required.
• Drain and refill cooling system with water/antifreeze mixture of the correct ratio.
• Fill the diesel tank to prevent corrosion of the tank walls. If using biodiesel, drain the tank if storing
for more than 3 months.
• Store the machine on solid level ground which is not liable to flooding, standing water or airborne
contamination.
• Chock the wheels securely to prevent the dumper moving.
• Smear exposed metal parts with grease.
• Remove the battery, store in a safe place and keep fully charged.
• Seal off the air intake opening on the air cleaner and the exhaust opening.
• Leave the parking brake in the OFF position.
12.5 Recomissioning
The following procedure must be followed when a machine is removed from storage.
• Clean grease or other protective film from piston rods and other exposed metal parts.
