The present invention provides an equipment maintenance method capable of preventing solidification of nitrogen gas when the equipment is separated from a liquid hydrogen flow path. In the case of this equipment maintenance method, an operator causes hydrogen gas to flow into a first section (LS1), a second section (LS2), a third section (LS3), and a fourth section (LS4) in order for liquid hydrogen to be discharged. Subsequently, the operator causes nitrogen gas to flow into the second section (LS2) and the third section (LS3) in order for the hydrogen gas to be purged. In a state where the second section (LS2) and the third section (LS3) are filled with the nitrogen gas, the operator detaches a pump (50) after the flow path (LS) is decoupled at a first joint part (LT1) and a second joint part (LT2).
