In response to the need for long-term storage of loaders, the brands of SEM Machinery and Caterpillar provide professional storage advice. Before storage, the loader needs to be fully cleaned and dried, and the fuel tank needs to be filled with oil, the moving pins and drive shafts need to be greased, and the hydraulic oil needs to be replaced. In addition, it is necessary to set the variable speed manoeuvring handle to the neutral position, apply the parking brake and remove the battery from the vehicle for separate storage. If the temperature is likely to drop below 0°C, add antifreeze to the engine or drain the cooling system.
During storage, it is recommended to start the machine once a month to run the systems and lubricate the moving parts, as well as to charge the battery. Before starting the vehicle, grease needs to be wiped off the piston rods of the hydraulic cylinders and reapplied at the end of the operation. In addition, rust preventive oil should be applied to rust-prone areas.
At the end of storage, it is necessary to change the lubricating oil of the engine, transmission and drive axle, as well as the hydraulic oil and antifreeze, and grease all the moving pins and drive shafts. These measures will ensure that the loader is properly stored during the downtime, providing for normal use later.
Whether your area is affected or not, knowing and learning about these storage recommendations will help ensure the long-term stability of your loader.
