Maintenance Tips
- Engine Oil & Filter: Change the engine oil and filter every 250 hours of operation using the recommended oil type (e.g., 15W-40) for diesel engines and a quality oil filter.
- Hydraulic System: Check the hydraulic fluid level regularly and replace the hydraulic filter every 500 hours to maintain proper hydraulic system performance and prevent damage. Inspect hoses and connections for leaks.
- Fuel System: Use clean, high-quality diesel fuel and check the fuel filter regularly, replacing it as needed (typically every 250-500 hours) to prevent fuel system issues. Consider using a fuel additive for cold weather starting or to prevent fuel gelling.
- 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 fittings, and disconnect the battery. Store the tractor in a dry, covered location.
