In the rainyseason, it is best to park machines in a dry garage and avoid parking in a wet environment as much as possible. For machines stored inside, rust prevention work should be carried out, and machines parked for a long period of time should be started and driven once a month. Batteries should be charged; the grease on the piston rod should be wiped clean; and grease should be added to the necessary parts.

When parking outdoors, check that the fuel tank and hydraulic oil tank covers are securely fastened so as to avoid rain getting into the tanks. Plastic bags may be usedto cover the openings and provide basic protection.

Suspended construction work on rainy days is a good time for maintenance work. You can take this opportunity to give the machine a thorough examination, carry outrepairs, replace easily damaged parts, clean the radiator surface, andlubricate all lubricating points, etc. Pay attention to the following:Check the airfilter to avoid damage and blockage caused by the deterioration of the filter element as a result of rainwater;

Check the sealing ring on the engine oil level gauge and promptly replace it if it is worn. The oil filler should also be checked;

Check the cable ends of the starter and promptly fix or replace them if they have become looseor corroded;

Check the generator to prevent moisture of the line connectors from affecting powergeneration.
