Maintenance Tips

Engine Oil and Filter: Change the engine oil and filter every 250-300 hours of operation using a high-quality diesel engine oil meeting the manufacturer's specifications. Regularly check the oil level and top off as needed.
Hydraulic System Maintenance: Inspect the hydraulic fluid level and condition regularly. Change the hydraulic fluid and filter per the manufacturer's recommendations, typically every 500-750 hours, to prevent contamination and ensure proper hydraulic system performance.
Fuel System Care: Use clean, high-quality diesel fuel. Change the fuel filter at recommended intervals (every 250-500 hours) to prevent fuel system issues. Consider using a fuel additive during colder months to prevent fuel gelling.
Seasonal Storage: Before storing the tractor for extended periods, stabilize the fuel with a fuel stabilizer, grease all lubrication points, and disconnect the battery. Store the tractor in a dry, covered location to protect it from the elements.
