Maintenance Tips

  • Engine Oil & Filter: Change engine oil and filter every 250 hours of operation using the recommended oil type and filter to ensure optimal engine performance and longevity.
  • Hydraulic System: Regularly inspect hydraulic fluid levels and change the hydraulic filter every 500 hours. Contaminated hydraulic fluid can damage hydraulic components.
  • Fuel System: Use high-quality fuel and regularly check the fuel filter. Drain the fuel sediment bowl frequently to prevent water and sediment from entering the fuel system.
  • Seasonal Storage: Before storing the tractor for the winter, fill the fuel tank, add fuel stabilizer, change the engine oil, and grease all fittings. This will protect the tractor from corrosion and ensure it's ready for use in the spring.
