As a mechanical product, the guardrail pile driver requires essential maintenance for long-term use on the road. Below, we will guide you on how to maintain certain parts of the hydraulic pile driver.

Engine: For the highway guardrail pile driver, engine oil and oil filter elements must be original parts and replaced according to the specified maintenance cycle. Old machines need careful maintenance, and the replacement time of the oil filter can be shortened appropriately to ensure the longevity of the pile driver's engine. Before starting piling each day, please drain the water from the diesel tank and the oil-water separator. The diesel filter element is purchased from the original manufacturer and replaced according to the specified maintenance cycle. The air filter element of the pile driver needs to be checked regularly. When blowing dust off the external filter element, air pressure should not be too high to avoid blowing out the filter element. The internal filter cannot be cleaned by blowing. After cleaning the external filter two or three times, replace it with a new internal filter. The pile driver should not be used idling for long periods to save fuel and prevent carbon buildup in the engine.

Electrical: Be careful with waterproofing during cleaning, do not work in deep water, and do not wash electrical components directly with water. Do not accumulate debris, especially metal tools, inside the battery box, as this may cause a fire. Do not use wire or copper wire instead of fuses, and do not use substandard fuses. When parking the excavator for a long time, unplug the battery cable to prevent power supply.

Hydraulic: Change the hydraulic oil, return oil filter element, and pilot filter element of the highway guardrail pile driver according to the specified maintenance cycle, and check for iron and copper filings on the filter elements. When using a breaker, the degradation of hydraulic oil accelerates, and the replacement cycle should be shortened. The pile driver must not be run low on oil for long periods. After changing hydraulic oil or hydraulic components, be careful to bleed air.

Mechanical: The reducer of the highway guardrail pile driver will periodically change gear oil. Pay attention to the pin, clean off dust and debris, and add grease. When working in water, be aware of the rust resistance of the cylinder rods. When parking the road guardrail pile driver for a long time, apply grease on exposed metal parts to prevent rusting.
