7.5 Preservation

Preservation provides provisional anticorrosion protection of tractor assemblies and sys-
tems from ambient exposure in the process of tractor transportation and storage.
Engine, its systems and fuel tank preservation instructions are listed in the engine opera-
tion manual.
It is required to clean tractor surfaces subject to preservation from mechanical staining,
degrease it and dry up. It is required to cover unpainted inside and outside galvanized sur-
faces, specific assemblies of tractor and cabin with corrosion-proof oil RUST BAN 397,
SUMIDERA 397.
Preservation of units (radiator and fuel tank filler, breathers, cylinder rods) shall be carried
out by polyethylene film.
The applied materials provide tractor protection and its assemblies for the period of stor-
age and transportation within one year.
Outside tractor and its assemblies preservation shall be made by lubrication of surfaces
with a brush or sputtering by means of a paint sprayer. Inside tractor preservation is car-
ried out by filling cavities with preservation mixture and subsequent engine operation.
During tractor inter-shift, short-term and long-term storage, the enterprise operating the
tractor shall be responsible for compliance with preservation methods and storage condi-
tions specified in GOST 7751-85. Inside tractor surface preservation shall be carried out
with preservation grease КС-У according to TU RB 600125053.019-2004. When a tractor
is stored outside, specific surfaces shall be preserved with grease "BELA-COR" of type "А"
according to TU RB 600125053-020-2004. Upon agreement with Minsk Tractor Works
other preservation greases can be used.

7.6 Depreservation and represervation

Depreservation method is chosen depending on preservation materials used. Surfaces
under preservation shall be wiped with cleaning cloth soaked with low-viscous oils, sol-
vents, or washed away with washing water-soluble detergents. Sealed assembles shall be
cleaned from insulation materials (film, paper). Inside surfaces under preservation do not
need depreservation.
Tractor represervation is carried out in case conservation defects are detected in the pro-
cess of storage or upon expiration of protection life.

7.7 Putting tractor into operation after long-term storage

Perform depreservation of an engine according to the engine operation manual.
Remove grease from external surfaces under preservation. Dismount protective covers,
plugs, special accessories and mount the parts which were removed earlier back in their
places. Before mounting the parts, clean them off grease and dust. Drain sediment out of
all containers, fill them with operation fluids and if necessary, top up to control level.
Lubricate all tractor mechanisms according to clause 3 of table 5.4 of the present opera-
tion manual. Carry out scheduled maintenance. Run tractor for 15-20 minutes. Correct de-
tected faults if necessary.
