RESERVATION
1. Clean and touch up damaged paint surfaces.
2. Fill the hydraulic tank to operating level with the platform fully lowered. Fluid should
be visible on the tank dip stick.
3. Coat exposed portions of cylinder rods with a preservative such as multipurpose
grease and wrap with barrier material.
4. Coat all exposed un-painted metal surfaces with a light oil or other preservative.
5. Cover the machine with tarpaulin if possible. If this is not available it is advisable to
cover the mast and jib mount area as a minimum. This will prevent moisture from
entering the mast, battery and chassis areas.

ATTERIES
1. Disconnect the batteries at the quick connect plug and socket. This is located in the
chassis between the controller and the hydraulic tank.
2. Disconnect the battery leads and tape up the lead terminals to ensure insulation.
Better battery life and efficiency is achieved if the batteries are used consistently. It is
therefore recommended that the batteries are used elsewhere if the machine is to be
unused for an extended period (2 weeks or more).
