Maintenance Tips
- Engine Oil & Filter: Change your engine oil and filter every 250 hours of operation using the recommended oil type (e.g., 15W-40). Regularly check the oil level to prevent engine damage.
- Hydraulic System: Inspect hydraulic lines and fittings for leaks. Replace the hydraulic filter every 500 hours or annually, whichever comes first. Use the correct hydraulic fluid specified in your operator's manual.
- Fuel System: Use clean, high-quality diesel fuel. Drain the fuel filter sediment bowl regularly to remove water and contaminants. Consider adding a fuel stabilizer during seasonal storage to prevent fuel degradation.
- Seasonal Storage: Before storing your tractor for the off-season, thoroughly clean it, grease all fittings, and top off fluids. Disconnect the battery or use a battery tender to prevent draining. Store in a dry, sheltered area if possible.
