How can domestic excavator parts manufacturers teach you how to make your excavator smoothly survive the harsh winter?

2025-01-27

Due to the impact of the new generation cold wave on most of China, the north has entered an extremely cold state, and even the south has experienced cooling and snowfall. Domestic excavator parts manufacturers should kindly remind excavator and loader users not to only focus on keeping themselves warm, but also neglect the maintenance of their beloved machines. It should be noted that these steel giants are not immune to cold and heat, and they are also afraid of "freezing"!

Key One: Initiate

In winter, excavators and other equipment often encounter problems when starting, with simple situations of not being able to ignite. The following points can effectively prevent:

1. Choose batteries with high cold start current and try to keep them fully charged.

2. Choose suitable diesel, for example, in an environment of minus ten degrees Celsius, choose -35 diesel, otherwise diesel will wax and lose fluidity. The selection of engine oil is the same, and it should be replaced in a timely manner according to the actual temperature.

3. In extremely cold environments (below minus 30 degrees Celsius), it is necessary to install cold start auxiliary equipment in advance. For example, domestic excavator parts manufacturers can choose the "combustion diesel coolant heater" equipment for excavators, which can effectively handle the difficulty of starting at ultra-low temperatures.

When initiating difficulties, the following two actions should be avoided:

Heat the engine cylinder with an open flame. Even maintaining a certain distance is not acceptable. Because there are many exposed pipelines on excavators, which inevitably have leaked oil, there is a risk of fire and equipment destruction when exposed to high temperatures and open flames.

Heat the coolant out and then pour it back in. In this situation, if the temperature of the heated coolant is too high and the machine temperature is too low, the huge temperature difference may cause local cracking of the cylinder block, which is difficult to correct. If you have to do this, you must control the temperature well.

Attention should be paid to "antifreeze" for excavators in winter

Key 2: Warm up

Not only do people need to warm up before exercising, but excavators also need to do the same. After starting, there should be a preheating stage, which is to idle for a period of time before the water temperature and hydraulic oil temperature of the starting machine rise to 50 degrees, and then slowly and slightly operate to let the equipment smoothly "enter the state" before starting normal operation.

In addition, construction sites are prone to snow and ice accumulation in winter, so it is important to avoid excessive movement during operation to prevent slipping and potential hazards.

Key Three: Maintenance

The most common maintenance for excavators is to replace the engine oil. In winter, it is necessary to preheat the engine oil before changing it, otherwise the oil will become sticky and difficult to drain when it cools down, and the iron filings and other dirt that settle at the bottom of the fuel tank will not be easily carried out.

Key Four: Storage

In winter, if the excavator is not used for a long time, it is necessary to do a good job of cold protection. If conditions permit, the equipment can be covered with insulation curtains or insulation sleeves to prevent cold. If necessary, the equipment should be parked in the garage and protected from the north wind with cardboard in front of the radiator.

To check the freezing point of the coolant used, it is necessary to empty the coolant inside the engine if necessary to prevent freezing and freezing inside the machine, causing the machine to swell and crack, and causing equipment damage.

If not used for a long time, the battery should be disassembled and stored indoors.

Finally, domestic excavator parts manufacturer Chuanna Hydraulic once again reminds us that safety comes first during winter construction! In harsh construction environments, work safety must be kept in mind. Making money only has meaning on the premise of ensuring safety! Do you think so?
