• After washing and drying, trailer should be greased at all inspection points
regardless of last lubrication period.
5.9 STORAGE
• It is recommended that the trailer should be stored in closed and roofed room.
• If the trailer shall not be used for a long period, immediately protect it against
weather conditions, especially these which can cause corrosion and accelerate
tire deterioration. During this time the trailer must be unloaded. Trailer should be
very carefully washed and dried.
• Corroded places should be cleaned of rust, degreased and protected using primer
coat and then painted with surface paint according to color scheme.
• In case of prolonged stoppage, it is essential to lubricate all elements regardless
of last lubrication.
• Wheel rims and tires should be carefully washed and dried. During prolonged
storage of unused trailer it is recommended to move the trailer every 2 – 3 weeks
so that the place of contact of tires with ground is changed. The tires will not be
deformed and maintain proper geometry. Also tire pressure should be inspected
from time to time, and if necessary pressure should be increased to appropriate
value.
