How To Maintain The Excavator In Rainy Season

With the coming of summer and the beginning of rainy season, the rainy weather has a lot of damage to the excavator. Here’s how to maintain the excavator in rainy season.

In most cases, the excavator works in the outdoor environment. On rainy days, the construction personnel can have a rest, but don’t forget your excavator. After cleaning the mud stains on the excavator, find a place that can shelter from the rain, and tighten the covers of the oil tank and hydraulic tank to avoid the invasion of water vapor. When parking for a long time, drive the excavator every other month to fully charge the battery.

If the construction is to be continued in rainy season, the operation area should be checked every day to avoid serious ponding and places easy to sink the vehicle.

In case of heavy rain, the rain must be cleaned up in time after the operation is completed, otherwise it will cause sludge to be stored in the gap under the excavator, especially the chassis. The acid composition of rainwater has strong corrosiveness to the paint surface of the excavator, which will cause serious damage to the paint surface over time. Therefore, in places with more rain, it is best to wax the paint surface once, and the longer-term method is to seal the glaze once. In any case, put an invisible coat on the excavator to prevent the paint from fading and aging.
