No matter what you do, you will form a habit after doing it for a long time. The excavator is no exception. We must continue to maintain good habits, and we must discover and overcome those bad habits early. Below, let's take stock of the common bad habits of excavator driving.
01
After the construction is over, park the excavator casually
This is not only a bad habit, but also a big safety hazard!
The most important thing about excavators is safety. Some operators, regardless of whether the road is flat or uneven, just stop the excavator randomly. It is easy to stop, but it is troublesome to start. How to check the oil if it stops unevenly? How to release the water? Especially if the excavator is parked in a dangerous place, isn't this digging a hole for yourself?
Correct posture:
The excavator should be parked in a flat, solid place that does not obstruct traffic, put in reverse gear and implement the parking brake. When necessary, such as parking on a ramp, the front and rear of the walking mechanism are cushioned with wedges. Turn the fuselage straight, the bucket falls to the ground, the working device lever is placed in the neutral position, and the driver can leave the excavator only after the windows and doors are locked.
02
When it starts, it will start when it arrives
As soon as you get in the car, you are passionate and full of energy. Do you have this habit?
Correct posture:
Drain the water before the excavator, otherwise, the water will get into the oil-water separator, or even into the oil pump, the oil pump will be easily destroyed. Whether it is winter or summer, the excavator must be warmed up first when it is started, but the warm-up time in summer does not need to be so long.
03
Turn on the air conditioner without closing the windows
If the indoor temperature cannot be reached when the doors and windows are opened, the cold pump will not jump, and it will be destroyed after a long time.
Besides, there is so much dust on the construction site, opening doors and windows allows the expansion valve to suck more dust and block it, resulting in poor air conditioning performance.
Correct posture:
Four words, close doors and windows
04
Always challenge thrilling moves
Don't take risks with your own body. Excavators are inherently dangerous and require stimulation. In online language, it means "no zuo no die".
Correct posture:
The excavator should put safety awareness first. When looking for excitement is not working, you should pay attention to the word "stable" when walking in the rivers and lakes.
05
Two legs in the cab and smoke
Although you think it's very awkward, don't do these things during construction. In case of an emergency, there is no time to respond.
"Safety comes from caution, accidents are careless"... Such a title is familiar, isn't it?
06
Habitually
Excessive operation and friction are likely to cause machine wear, turntable bearings are also easy to wear, and at the same time, the safety valve of the brake hydraulic system is easy to jam.
Correct posture:
When the excavator rotates, the slewing clutch and the slewing mechanism brake are used to rotate smoothly.
07
The excavator inclines too much during construction
In this way, the oil pressure will not be able to supply, and once in a while, it will cause high temperature in the long-term, except for special circumstances.
Correct posture:
A safe and stable platform should be established before construction to enable the excavator to operate safely and efficiently.
08
The excavator turns off as soon as it stops
The engine temperature of the excavator is too high when the flame is suddenly turned off, and the water in the engine cannot circulate the water tank, especially in summer.
Correct posture:
Run at idle speed for 5-10 minutes, and then turn off the engine after the temperature drops.
I don’t know how many of the above bad habits have you hit? In any case, it is still too late to make corrections. Small ones will hurt the excavator, and large ones will hurt people. Don't make jokes about the safety of life and property.
