Prompt of Kato Zhongjun: Precautions for Construction and Maintenance of Excavator in Rainy Season

The arrival of spring，The beginning of the rainy season.。Facing extreme weather may cause the river to overflow.、Natural disasters such as flash floods and landslides，What measures should Excavator users take?？

Today，Xiaobian has sorted out the precautions for the construction and maintenance of Excavators in rainy season.，Hope to be helpful to everyone.。

Precautions for construction in rainy season

1、Observe the surrounding environment before construction，Check whether the construction site is soft and there are hidden dangers of trapped Vehicles.。The general method is：Poke down with a bamboo pole by hand，If many bamboo poles are easily and quickly poked,，There is no resistance within 1 meter.，It means that this place is full of silt.，Ordinary Excavator is very easy to get stuck，Normal construction is not possible。

2、Before construction in rainy season in mountainous area，First, observe whether there is a landslide on the mountain.、Landslide、The possibility of mudslides。First, observe whether the mountain is broken.，Whether there is unreasonable excavation，Unreasonable spoil、Waste slag、Quarrying，Is the vegetation growing well?，Is the mountain water muddy?。

3、During construction，If you feel that the excavator has begun to sink.，Construction should be stopped in time.，Find a support point and use the big arm to support the car body.，Prevent further subsidence。Quickly drive the excavator back the way it came.，Do not drive in the other direction。

4、Always be vigilant when working in the rain.，Keep the front and rear headlights of the excavator when working at night，Work lights，Dome Light，Instrument lamp ，Normal operation of wipers, etc.，Make sure it's safe。

5、After the completion of construction，Be sure to park the excavator in a safe area on high ground close to the place of residence.，Keep away from possible cave-ins、Dangerous areas such as rising rivers，Also make sure that the excavator has enough fuel.，Evacuation can be initiated at any time。

Precautions for storage in rainy season

1、With conditions.，It is best to store the machine indoors in a dry location，And clean the machine thoroughly，Remove dirt and debris from the machine。

2、When parking in the open air, pay attention to check whether the fuel tank and hydraulic oil tank covers are tightly covered.，Avoid unnecessary troubles caused by rainwater seeping into the fuel tank.。

3、Check the machine，Repair worn and damaged parts，Install new parts if necessary。

4、Clean the main air filter element、Lubricate all lubrication points。If possible。Retract all cylinders，If not possible，Apply grease to the exposed hydraulic cylinder rod【Strengthen protection】，Place the track on a long, stable block。

5、After the battery is fully charged，Remove the battery and store it in a dry, safe place。If not removed，Turn off the main power switch，Or disconnect the negative battery cable connection from the terminal。

6、Observe the wear of the sealing ring on the engine oil dipstick，To prevent rain water from seeping into the engine oil due to wear.，Check the oil filler as well，Outdoor parking, if necessary, can be covered with a plastic bag.，Be foolproof。
