Maintenance Tips
- Engine Oil and Filter: Change the engine oil and filter every 250-300 hours of operation using the recommended oil type and a high-quality filter to maintain engine lubrication and prevent wear.
- Hydraulic System Maintenance: Inspect hydraulic fluid levels regularly and change the hydraulic filters according to the manufacturer's recommendations (typically every 500-750 hours). Use the correct hydraulic fluid type to prevent damage to seals and components.
- Fuel System Care: Use clean, high-quality diesel fuel and change the fuel filters regularly (every 250-500 hours) to prevent fuel system contamination and ensure optimal engine performance. Drain any water from the fuel/water separator frequently.
- Seasonal Storage: Before storing the tractor for the off-season, fill the fuel tank to prevent condensation, change the engine oil and filter, grease all lubrication points, and disconnect the battery. Store the tractor in a dry, sheltered location.
