Removing Machine from Storage

NOTE: When removing sprayer from storage gear oil is found leaking out of planetary drive hub inside rim, or puddle of oil is found on rims after machine has sat for a period of time. The gear reduction hubs have a mechanical seal between spindle and hub. It is normal for oil to leak out of these seals when a machine has sat in storage for awhile.

1. Remove sealing tape and plastic bags from openings.

2. Check engine oil level. If low, check for leaks. Add oil as required.

3. Check coolant level. If low, check for leaks. Add coolant as required.
