Maintenance Tips
- Engine Oil & Filter: Change engine oil and filter every 250 hours using high-quality diesel engine oil and a genuine or equivalent filter to ensure optimal engine lubrication and prevent wear.
- Hydraulic System Maintenance: Regularly check hydraulic fluid levels and inspect for leaks. Change hydraulic filters every 500 hours or as recommended in the operator's manual to maintain hydraulic performance and prevent damage to components.
- Fuel System Care: Use clean, high-quality diesel fuel and check the fuel filter regularly. Drain any water or sediment from the fuel tank to prevent fuel system issues. Consider adding a fuel stabilizer during seasonal storage.
- Seasonal Storage: Before storing the tractor for the winter, drain all fluids, add fuel stabilizer, disconnect the battery and store in a climate-controlled location. Grease all fittings. This prevents corrosion and ensures the tractor starts readily in the spring.
