How to park the Excavator in rainy season

It is better to park the Excavator in the garage in rainy season.,Try to avoid parking in an excessively humid environment。Even if stored indoors,Attention should also be paid to the rust prevention of equipment。If the equipment is parked for a long time,The machine should be started and operated once a month,Allow the battery to be charged。After the equipment is stored for a long time, the grease on the piston rod should be wiped off.,Fill lubricating grease to each part。

Keep the working device dry and clean when the equipment is parked.,So as not to rust the equipment。After operation in rainy season,Be sure to clean the excavator chassis.,And carry out maintenance and refueling in necessary places.,Prevent rusting,Check whether each oil drain screw is loose.,Maintain in a timely manner,If the equipment is found to have accumulated water, it should be removed in time.。

When parking in the open air, pay attention to check whether the fuel tank and hydraulic oil tank covers are tightly covered.,Prevent rainwater from seeping into the oil tank。At the same time,Pay attention to check the filter element of the excavator air filter,Avoid the entry of rainwater,Cause deterioration, damage and blockage of paper filter element。In addition,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.,If necessary, put a plastic bag on the oil filler when parking in the open air.,Be foolproof。Check the use of each thread of the starter,Check for looseness or rust,Find problems and deal with them in time。Check the use of the Generator,All line joints shall be protected from moisture.,Affect the power generation effect。

How to protect excavators in rainy season

1、Clean in time

Clean the equipment in time in case of heavy rain.,This will cause sludge to accumulate in the void on the underside of the excavator,This is where moisture usually hides.,It is also the place most likely to cause rust.。Therefore, the attached clay on the excavator needs to be removed,、Sludge、Remove the ballast in time.。

 2、Paint protection

Acidic components in rainwater will corrode the paint surface of excavators.,Over time, it will damage the paint surface of the excavator.,Therefore, in the rainy season,,It's better to give the excavator a paint finish.。Can be waxed,Or carrying out glaze sealing。Whatever the method.,Put an invisible protective coat on the excavator.,Prevent paint fading and aging。

3、Chassis care

The chassis is the closest part to the ground.,Generally, this part is most likely to be rusted.,There may even be a loose perforation at the wheel housing。So,Be sure to pay attention to the cleaning and anti-rust treatment of the excavator chassis.。

 4、Ignition activated

In rainy days, it is often difficult to start the engine.,This phenomenon may be caused by leakage of electricity due to moisture in the ignition system.,Therefore, normal ignition function cannot be guaranteed.。Once it is found that the ignition of the equipment is not good because of the moisture of the ignition system.、Engine performance is degraded,Use a dry paper towel or cloth to dry the inside and outside of the distributor and the wires.,Then spray the desiccant on the battery connector with a special desiccant spray can.、Line connector、High-voltage lines, etc,Wait a few moments to start the device。

5、Other considerations

Pay attention to the weather forecast before operation,If the construction site is in the valley、Hillside、On an unstable dirt road.,More importantly, we need to take timely precautions.,Move the excavator to a safe location。Avoid excavating too close to the cliff.,The edge of a ditch,The ground is soft in these places.,It is very easy for the machine to fall or overturn due to the weight and vibration of the excavator itself.。

How to construct excavator in rainy season

Pay attention to windproof during excavator construction in rainy season,Collapse prevention,Damp-proof,Anti-skid, etc。On the one hand, attention should be paid to the surrounding environment of excavator construction,Avoid mountain torrents、Personal and property losses caused by natural disasters such as debris flow;On the other hand,The excavator itself needs to be inspected and maintained.,Prevent damage to parts caused by rain。Avoid excavating too close to the cliff.,The edge of a ditch,If the ground is soft in these places,,It is very easy for the machine to fall or overturn due to the weight and vibration of the excavator itself.。
