Winter Operation & Maintenance Guide for New Energy Sanitation Garbage Trucks
Faced with the severe test of extremely cold winter environment, Shandong Xiangnong Special Vehicle Co., Ltd. conducted comprehensive and rigorous high-altitude tests in Heihe City, Heilongjiang Province, and implemented precise optimization and upgrading strategies based on actual test data, aiming to ensure customers have worry free winter driving. At the same time, daily maintenance of new energy environmental sanitation garbage trucks is not only the cornerstone of ensuring that the vehicles maintain optimal operating conditions, but also the key to their stable maximum efficiency and efficient completion of operational tasks.
Vehicle inspection: Before using the vehicle daily, check whether there is any oil or water leakage, as well as whether the operating equipment and electronic control buttons are functioning properly. Check the oil level of the hydraulic oil tank. If it is not enough, add more oil. If the noise of the vehicle suddenly increases and all movements are slow in a low-temperature environment, it may be due to inappropriate hydraulic oil, and it should be replaced with hydraulic oil suitable for low-temperature environment in a timely manner. It is recommended to use L-HM46 anti-wear hydraulic oil for temperatures above 0 ° C, and L-HV32 low pour point hydraulic oil for temperatures below 0 ° C.
Driving precautions: When driving in winter, slow down appropriately and maintain a safe distance from the preceding vehicle. When decelerating, the motor braking function should be fully utilized, and the brake pedal should be lightly pressed to avoid emergency braking on snowy or icy roads that may cause the vehicle to spin and slip. Installing tire anti-skid chains can provide greater driving force, but it is also necessary to avoid emergency braking to prevent skidding.
Charging: After the end of winter operation, vehicles should be charged in a timely manner and charging stations should be reasonably configured to ensure that the charging queue time does not exceed two hours. Due to the low ambient temperature in winter, the vehicle's automatic heating system requires a certain amount of time to heat the battery, so timely charging can appropriately shorten the winter charging time.
Garbage dumping: After winter homework is completed, the sewage in the garbage bin should be emptied, and the materials should be dumped as soon as possible after garbage collection is completed to avoid long-term storage of garbage. After unloading garbage and discharging sewage, the joint surface needs to be cleaned to ensure good sealing.
Tire pressure: Adjusting tire pressure in winter is also crucial. Due to the low temperature, the tire pressure may decrease, so it is necessary to increase the pressure appropriately to ensure the normal use of the tire.
In terms of daily maintenance, cleaning and inspection should be the focus. This includes washing the interior of the garbage bin, removing residual garbage, wiping glass and rearview mirrors, etc. When washing the car, be careful to avoid spraying water directly onto electrical components. Lubricating grease should be added to the hinge ears and hinge point grease fittings of each oil cylinder every week, and lubricating grease should be applied to the surface of the skateboard slide. In addition to daily maintenance, different sanitation vehicle models should undergo quarterly, semi annual, and annual maintenance according to the user manual.
When vehicles need to be stored for a long time, the cooling water of the cooling system and the water in the garbage bin should be drained before storage, and the inside and outside should be cleaned thoroughly; Cut off the power, lock the car doors and windows; Placed in places with ventilation, moisture release, and fire protection facilities. Start running for 30 minutes every 30 days in a new car running in mode, and perform charging and discharging maintenance on the battery.
