Страница: 138 / 154

Maintenance – 16 S2632E – 1420331
The interior of the reservoir should be wiped out and
cleaned each time the hydraulic oil is changed. The
reservoir filler/breather cap should be removed and the
cap breather cleaned yearly with kerosene, fuel oil, or
other solvent.
Any time the hydraulic oil is changed or added, it is abso -
lutely necessary that only clean hydraulic oil is used.
Note
If it becomes necessary to add or use an oil other than
the recommended fluid, it is important that it be compat -
ible and equivalent to the factory fill. Local oil suppliers
can generally furnish this information.
If questions still remain, contact Snorkel Customer Ser -
vice Department for further information.
Return Filter
Return filter – Item 7. The hydraulic oil return filter is
mounted in the right hand tray close to the hydraulic
oil reservoir.
The filter element is a throwaway type filter and should
be changed after the initial break-in period (approxi -
mately 50 hours operation time).
Check the filter condition during the Frequent Inspec -
tion and Maintenance or more frequently under extreme
working conditions.
When changing the filter element, the oil inside of the
filter element, should be examined for deposits of metal
cuttings, which if present, could indicate excessive wear
in some of the system components.
Tray Hinges and Latches
Tray hinges and latches – Item 8. Lubricate using pow -
dered graphite following the Frequent Inspection and
Maintenance schedule.
After lubricating, remove any excess so it will not collect
dirt and debris.
Slide Pads
Slide pads – Item 9. Check slide pads for excessive
wear and replace as required. Slide pads do not require
lubrication.
Machines with the platform Overload System – lubricate
the slide pads with a spray dry-film lubricant as required
for smooth operation before overload calibration.
Scissor Arm Bearings
Scissor arm bearings – Item 10. Scissor arm bearings
are self lubricating. Check bearings for signs of dam -
age and excessive wear as outlined in the maintenance
schedule. Do not lubricate scissor arm bearings.
Batteries
Batteries – Item 11. The batteries and battery cables
should be checked to assure that the connections are
tight and free of corrosion. Fluid level should be main -
tained to assure that the batteries will maintain proper
charge.
Check the batteries specific gravity per the maintenance
schedule.
The batteries are enclosed within a tray located on the
side of the machine. For access to the batteries when
the machine is lowered, position the machine on a hard
level surface, unlatch and open tray.
Warning
Battery acid can damage the skin and eyes. Serious
infection or reaction can result if medical treatment
is not given immediately. Wear face and eye protec-
tion when working near the batteries.
Wear rubber gloves and protective clothing to keep acid
off skin, if acid contacts skin, wash off immediately with
clear water.
Lead-acid batteries produce flammable and explosive
gases. Never allow smoking, flames or sparks around
batteries.
Battery Care and Maintenance
The following information about battery care and main -
tenance was supplied by Interstate Batteries and is
reprinted here with their permission.
1. New batteries need to be cycled several times before
reaching full capacity (20-50 cycles, depending on
type). Usage should be limited during this period.
2. Always recharge batteries fully, immediately after
use. Batteries perform best when they are fully
charged. More capacity and longer life will result
from this practice.
3. The deeper the discharge, the fewer number of
cycles a lead-acid battery will deliver. Deep dis -
charges deteriorate the battery quicker than lighter
shallow cycles.
4. Battery cables should be intact and connectors kept
tight at all times. Systematic inspection is recom -
mended.
5. Vent caps should be kept in place and tight during
vehicle operation and battery charging.
6. Batteries should be kept clean – free of dirt and cor -
rosion – at all times. Always keep the top of batteries
clean. A film on top of the battery can cause the
current to migrate between the posts, accelerating
self discharge.
