STORAGE
PREPARATIONS FOR STORAGE
1. When preparing the TLB 6235 for storage, first remove seat mount plate and steering
column cover. Wash off all dirt and grease from all the major components and connecting
hoses. Coat the exposed cylinder rods with grease and grease all the grease fittings.
2. IMPORTANT: When washing the TLB 6235, allow engine and hydraulic system to cool
before washing. Cold water on a hot engine or hydrostatic pump can cause costly dam-
age. DO NOT direct the stream of water, when washing, directly at the hydraulic system
breather, it is possible to get water into the hydraulic system and contaminate the fluid.
3. Make sure the battery is fully charged, battery terminals are clean and have a corrosion
protectant applied.
4. Change the engine oil and run for 5 minutes to allow the oil to penetrate to all the parts.
5. Fill the fuel tank with fuel and add a fuel stablilizer to prevent the diesel fuel from gumming
up the fuel system during storage.
6. Place the TLB 6235 in a clean, dry place and cover if at all possible.
