Dutch to Spanish: publicity
Source text - Dutch Om de bepalende, betalende en goed geïnformeerde consument zo goed mogelijk van dienst te kunnen zijn, is het noodzakelijk in zijn huid te kruipen. Welke taal spreekt hij? Wat is zijn behoefte? Hoe kan ik het hem naar de zin maken? Is de klant eenmaal binnen, dan werpen zich vragen op als: Hoe kan ik hem behouden? Hoe verleen ik hem een (nog) betere service? En…Hoe zorg ik ervoor dat hij ook andere producten en diensten bij mij gaat afnemen?	Translation - Spanish Para poder ayudar lo mejor posible al consumidor que paga, decide y está bien informado hay que ponerse en su lugar. ¿Qué idioma habla? ¿Cuáles son sus necesidades? ¿Cómo puedo complacerlo? Si el consumidor ya está en su cartera de clientes, pueden surgir preguntas como: ¿Cómo puedo asegurar su lealtad? ¿Cómo le puedo prestar un servicio aún mejor? ¿Qué puedo hacer para que adquiera otros productos y servicios de mi compañía en el futuro?
Dutch to Spanish: mechanical Detailed field: Mechanics / Mech Engineering
Source text - Dutch De XXXX grijpers onderscheiden zich door hoge sluitkrachten, robuuste constructie van het juk door het toepassen van een Delta-box frame met breed gelagerde scharnierpunten en overgedimensioneerde pennen, lagerbussen en een dubbel gelagerde draaikrans. Het Delta-box frame in combinatie met slechts één cilinder met grote diameter zorgt voor lage reactie krachten in de scharnierpunten; dus minder onderhoud. Door toepassing van één cilinder is de xxx grijper ook zeer servicevriendelijk en betrouwbaar vanwege de eenvoud van het hydraulisch systeem.	Translation - Spanish Los cucharones XXXX se distinguen por la fuerza de agarre, construcción robusta del yugo gracias a la aplicación de un marco Delta con puntos de articulación de cojinete y pasadores superpuestos, fundas de cojinetes y un aro rotatorio con cojinetes dobles. El marco Delta en combinación con un sólo cilindro de gran diámetro proporciona una fuerza de bajo impacto en los puntos articulados, lo que implica menos mantenimiento. Utilizando un sólo cilindro el cucharón xxxx es también muy fácil de usar y fiable gracias a la simplicidad de su sistema hidráulico. Las valvas están acabadas con una placa de fuselaje perforada de material de alta calidad.
English to Spanish: heavy machinery
Source text - English Load chain maintenance Wash dirty chains with petrol or similar cleaning agent, do not heat the chain under any circumstance.. Always lubricate the chain when it is not under load. The adjacent link points must always be lubricated to prevent , excessive chain wear. Lubricate chain with lubricant with creep, e.g. automotive engine oil. In environmental conditions that speed up wear (etc. sand) use a dry lubricant e.g. graphite powder.	Translation - Spanish Mantenimiento de la cadena de carga Lave las cadenas sucias con gasolina o un agente limpiador similar, no caliente nunca la cadena. Lubrique la cadena cuando no esté cargada. Los puntos adyacentes al eslabón tienen que lubricarse para prevenir el desgaste excesivo de la cadena. Lubrique la cadena con un lubricante viscoso tipo aceite de máquina. En condiciones ambientales que aceleren el desgaste (por ejemplo la arena) utilice un lubricante seco como polvo de grafito.
