Machine storage
3.5.1
Safely preparing for storage
WARNING!
The machine must be correctly secured when parked in storage. A correctly secured machine
prevents serious accidents. If the machine is not properly secured when parked it can result in serious injuries
or death.
Therefore, when disconnecting, make sure that:
The machine is placed on a firm and level surface.
The tractor cannot roll after being disconnected.
The tractor has stopped, the parking brake is applied and the starter key is removed.
The machine has come to a complete stop.
Children are never allowed to play close to the machine.
3.5.2
Storing the machine
If the machine is due to be left unused for a long period, it should be stored in a place where it will not be exposed to
the elements and should be protected to avoid deterioration.
Before storing, we recommend cleaning the whole machine thoroughly and suitably lubricating all mechanical parts to
protect them from rust.
Make sure storage temperature is in the range 0°C to 50°C.
Before mothballing the machine, it is advisable to proceed as follows:
Clear any shredding debris off the rotors and blades;
Clean the machine thoroughly;
Perform a general inspection, looking out for possible damage to the structure and areas where paintwork
has been scraped off or worn away; make sure the original safety decals are attached in their relevant
positions and are intact and legible;
Securely tighten all screws and bolts, especially those fastening the blades; see Section 6.9.
Thoroughly grease any parts that usually require this kind of attention, smear all non-painted parts with
lubricant; lastly, protect all equipment with a plastic tarpaulin, while making sure there is sufficient ventilation.
Once you have finished this treatment, store the equipment in a dry place;
Where possible, store the machine indoors or under shelter, on a level, stable surface.
When carried out with due care, this procedure will ensure the equipment is in full working order and in a
perfect state of repair when the time comes to put it back into operation.
Place the machine in the transport position, to best protect the hydraulic ram from corrosion. See Section
3.3.1 for guidance on how to do this.
3.5.3
Removing the machine from packing or longer term storage
Before using the machine for the first time, or when it has not been used for long periods, proceed as follows:
Make sure the machine has not been damaged;
Make sure mechanical parts are in a good state of repair and not rusted;
Check the blades for wear;
Thoroughly grease all moving parts;
Make sure all guards are correctly fitted.
Inspect the condition of the hydraulic hoses and check for wear. If they have deteriorated (or at least every 5
years), have them replaced.
