5.28 Storage
If the vehicle is to remain idle for an extended period, the following
operations should be carried out:
Clean the machine.
Grease all grease fittings.
Change engine oil.
Follow the instructions in the diesel engine Instruction and
Maintenance manual.
If the vehicle will be parked outside:
Cover the machine or put the machine under shelter.
Remove the battery and protect it from freezing conditions.
Completely drain the diesel fuel tank and fuel hoses.
Completely drain the water tank, water filter, and the roller
sprinkling equipment.
If the vehicle will be parked inside in a controlled environment:
Completely drain the water tank, water filter, and the roller
sprinkling equipment.
Completely fill the fuel tank.
Check all fluid levels.
Periodically check battery charge.
The vehicle should be started and driven a short distance at least
once a month so that a thin layer of oil is maintained on the
various hydraulic and mechanical components; this ensures
adequate protection of transmission parts.
CAUTION: After a prolonged period of idleness, all filters must be
changed before the machine is returned to service.
