•  Store the unit in an area away from human 

activity.

•  Do not permit children to play on or around 

the stored machine.

•  Store the unit in a dry, level area. Support 

the frame with planks if required.

7 STORAGE

After the season's use, the machine should be thoroughly inspected and prepared for storage. Repair or 

replace any worn or damaged components to prevent any unnecessary down time at the start of the next 

season. To ensure a long, trouble-free life, this procedure should be followed when preparing the unit for 

storage: 

7.1  PLACING IN STORAGE

1.  Clear the area of bystanders, especially small 

children.

2.  Thoroughly wash the machine using a pres-

sure washer to remove all dirt, mud, debris and 

residue.

3.  Inspect the bucket, dipper and boom for dam-

age or entangled material. Repair or replace 

damaged parts. Remove all entangled material.

4.  Check the oil in the optional reservoir (if so 

equipped). Add as required.

5. 

Lubricate  all  grease  fittings.  Make  sure  all 

grease cavities have been filled with grease to 

remove any water residue from washing.

6.  Touch up all paint nicks and scratches to prevent 

rusting.

7. 

Move to storage area.

8.  Select an area that is dry, level and free of 

debris.

9.  Place blocks or planks under the stabilizers 

and bucket.

10. 

Unhook from tractor.

11.  Stow hydraulic hoses in storage brackets to 

keep them off the ground.

12. Apply a coat of heavy grease to exposed cylin-

der rams to prevent rusting.

13. If the machine cannot be placed inside, cover 

with a waterproof tarpaulin and tie securely in 

place.

14. Store the machine in an area away from human 

activity.

15. Do not allow children to play on or around the 

stored machine.

•  Set the backhoe in "Safe Condition": 

• 

Shut off hydraulics

• 

Shut off the engine

•  Ensure all components have stopped moving

•  Remove and pocket the ignition key

•  Ensure boom and swivel pins are in place, or 

bucket is resting on the ground 

STORAGE SAFETY

7.2  REMOVING FROM STORAGE

When removing from storage and preparing to use, 

follow this procedure: 

1.  Clear the area of bystanders, especially small 

children and remove foreign objects from the 

machine and work area.

2.  Attach the tractor to the backhoe by following 

the procedure in Section 4.8.

3.  Check

•  Oil level in optional reservoir. Add as re-

quired.

•  All hardware. Tighten as required.
• 

All hydraulic lines, fittings and connections. 

Tighten as required.

4. 

Lubricate all grease fittings.

5.  Remove grease from cylinder rams.
6.  Replace any defective parts.
7. 

Go through the pre-operation checklist before 

using.
