Storage

Storage Safety

•
Park the machine on a level surface, engage the
parking brake, shut off the engine, remove the key,
and wait for all movement to stop before storing
the machine.
•
Never store the machine where there is an open
flame, spark, or pilot light, such as on a water
heater or on other appliances.
•
Allow the machine to cool before you store the
machine in any enclosure.

Storing the Machine

1. Clean the machine; refer to
Machine (page 41).
Important:
You can wash the machine
with mild detergent and water. Do not
pressure-wash the machine. Avoid
excessive use of water, especially near the
shift-lever plate, the InfoCenter, the power
center, and the machine power connector.
2. Store the machine in a cool, clean, dry garage
or storage area, away from direct sunlight. Do
not store it in a location where the temperature
drops below -25°C (-13°F) or rises above 45°C
(113°F). Temperatures outside of this range
will damage your battery.
Important:
The temperature that the battery
pack is stored at will affect its long-term
life. Storage for long periods of time at
high temperatures will reduce the life of the
battery pack, especially if the pack is stored
with a high charge. Where possible store
the machine in a cool (not below freezing)
location.
3. Connect the battery to the charger and keep
the charger plugged into a power outlet and
turned on for the duration of storage.
Important:
After 10 days, the charger enters
a storage maintenance mode, adjusting the
battery to a charge of 40% of maximum.
This charge level during long-term storage
ensures the full life of the battery. If you do
not keep the battery pack on the charger and
allow it to enter storage mode, the high state
of charge in the pack will shorten the life
of the battery, especially if stored in warm
conditions.
4. Check and tighten all fasteners. Repair or
replace any part that is worn or damaged.

5. Paint all scratched or bare metal surfaces
