Summer's high temperatures, heavy rain, and dust can easily cause engine overheating, hydraulic oil deterioration, and electrical system dampness, leading to malfunctions. Proper seasonal maintenance of the KOBIT spider crane can reduce downtime and extend the machine's lifespan. This involves standardized maintenance of four main components: power, hydraulics, travel, and electrical control.

The power system is paramount for summer maintenance. Regularly clean the air filter; replace it promptly if severely clogged. Check the coolant level and radiator fan to prevent overheating due to insufficient coolant. Clean dust from the motor surface to prevent dust accumulation from hindering heat dissipation and causing coil overheating. Regularly add lubricating grease to the emergency manual pump to prevent the grease from drying out and jamming, ensuring normal operation during power outages.

High-temperature maintenance of the hydraulic system is crucial. High temperatures accelerate hydraulic oil aging and deterioration. Regularly check the oil color; change the oil immediately if it turns white or emulsifies. Inspect all hydraulic lines and seals; high temperatures can cause seals to age and leak. Replace any leaking seals immediately. Wipe the outrigger hydraulic cylinder piston rods clean to prevent dirt and sand from scratching the plating and causing leaks.

The tracks and walking system require careful dust and water protection. In rainy and muddy summers, promptly clean mud and gravel from the gaps in the rubber tracks after operation to prevent damage to the track surface from hard objects. Inspect the outrigger pins and wheel bearings, and replenish with high-temperature grease to prevent dry friction and wear of parts. Wipe dry any water accumulated on the chassis after rain to prevent rust on metal parts.

Electrical and safety components require moisture-proof and heat-resistant maintenance. Protect remote controls and the main control panel from sun and rain during outdoor operations. Wipe dry wiring connectors after rain to prevent short circuits. Pay special attention to verifying the tilt anti-rollover system and torque limiter. High temperatures can cause sensor values to deviate; calibrate parameters to ensure timely alarm and machine locking when tilt exceeds limits.

Develop good daily usage habits: avoid prolonged continuous operation during the midday heat; intermittently stop the machine to allow for cooling. For long-term storage, keep the machine in a dry, well-ventilated warehouse and cover it with rainproof and sunproof cloth. By implementing standardized summer maintenance, the KOBIT spider crane can reliably cope with high-temperature and rainy season construction, effectively reducing maintenance costs and ensuring efficient project progress.
