Operating in a Cold Climate (Below 0°C)
In extremely low temperatures special care should be
taken. Extend the warm up time and cover the front faces
of the radiator and oil cooler, after warm up remove the
covers.
1 Until the machine is thoroughly warmed up never
attempt to slew rapidly or operate the travel system,
otherwise damage may result.
2 Before operating the machine after warm-up, ensure
that the boom, dipper bucket, slew and travel services
all operate correctly. A time lag may occur when
selecting these services if the hydraulic oil is not
sufficiently warm.
3 If the machine is left outside for more than one day
without usage, remove the battery and take it indoors.
4 Drain the water collected in the fuel system to prevent
it freezing.
5 Clean the machine after use and place it on wooden
blocks. Keep rams as fully retracted as possible.
Wipe off any water from the exposed portion of the
piston rods.
6 Additional low temperature fuel and lubricants and
batteries may be required. Consult your local JCB
dealer for advice.
