Operating Instructions

Laying Up

If the tractor is not going to be in service for over 2 months, for example for operational reasons, it must be placed in a well-ventilated, clean and dry room and the following measures must be carried out.

-Clean the tractor thoroughly.

-Check the hydraulic oil levels, topping up oil if neces- sary

-Cover all blank mechanical components with a thin film of oil or grease.

-Grease the tractor.

-Check the condition and acid density of the battery; cover the battery terminals with non-acidic grease. (Observe the instructions of the battery manufactur- er.)

-Remove the battery and store in a frost-free, dry room.

Engine Preservation

-Clean the engine.

-Run the engine warm.

-Drain the engine oil and refill with anti-corrosion oil.

-Drain some fuel and refill the fuel tank with a mix of 90 % Diesel fuel and 10 % anti-corrosion oil.

-Run the engine for 10 minutes.

-Switch off the engine.

-Turn the engine over a few times by hand.

-Block up the intake opening and exhaust outlet.

ATTENTION

The tractor must be blocked up so that all the wheels are off the ground to prevent a permanent deformation of the tires.

NOTE

Do not use plastic foil to cover the tractor as this enhances the formation and collection of condensate water.

Putting the Tractor Back in Service after a Lay-up

If the tractor was taken out or service for over six months, it must be inspected carefully before being put back in service. The inspection should, similar to the safety inspection, also cover all safety points of the tractor.

-Clean the tractor thoroughly.

-Lubricate the tractor.

-Check the condition and acid density of the battery, recharging it if necessary.
