11.8.5.Painting, sand‐blasting and plastering
This type of use requires meticulous protection of the delicate parts of the machi‐
ne such as hydraulic cylinder rods, gaskets, safety devices, hydraulic telescopic
extension arms and markings on the machine (e.g. Rating plate, warning stickers,
capacity table etc.). If sand enters the grease protecting the extension arms it pro‐
duces an extremely abrasive mixture, affecting the quality of the movements and
working life of the machine.
11.8.6.Use in marine environments
If the machine is used in particularly corrosive environments and atmospheres,
the formation of rust and the greasing and lubrication conditions of the moving
parts must be checked more frequently than recommended by the manufacturer
for normal operating conditions. It is also good practice to protect the machine ca‐
refully every time it is not used, even for short periods, by covering it to shield it
against salt and sand carried by the wind.
