LONG-TERM STORAGE
BEFORE STORAGE
When putting the machine in storage for a long time, do as follows.
Clean and wash all parts, then store the machine indoors. If the machine has to be stored outdoors, select level
ground and cover the machine with a sheet.
Completely fill the fuel tank, lubricate and change the oil before storage.
Apply a thin coat of grease to the metal surface of the hydraulic piston rods.
Disconnect the negative terminals of the battery and cover it or remove it from the machine and store it separately.
Make sure that the machine does not move by setting the safety lock lever in the LOCK position.
DURING STORAGE
If
it
is
unavoidably
necessary
to
carry
out
the
rust-preventive
operation
while
the
machine
is
indoors,
open
the
doors
and
windows
to
improve
ventilation
and
prevent
gas
poisoning.
During storage, always operate the machine once a month so that a new film of oil will be coated over movable
parts and component surfaces. At the same time, also charge the battery.
When operating the work equipment, wipe off all the grease from the hydraulic cylinder rod.
If the machine is equipped with an air conditioner, operate it for 3 to 5 minutes once a month to lubricate each
portion of its compressor. Be sure to idle the engine at low speed for this purpose. Also, check the quantity of
refrigerant twice a year.
AFTER STORAGE
NOTICE
If
the
machine
is
to
be
used
when
the
monthly
rust
prevention
operation
has
not
been
carried
out,
please
contact
your
Komatsu
distributor.
When using the machine after long-term storage, do as follows before using it.
Wipe off the grease from the hydraulic cylinder rods.
Add oil and grease to all places.
When a machine is stored for a long period, moisture in the air will get into the oil. Check the oil before and after
starting the engine. If there is water in the oil, change the oil.
