Maintenance Tips

  • Engine Oil & Filter: Change the engine oil and filter every 250-300 hours of operation using the recommended oil type and a quality filter. Regular oil changes are crucial for engine longevity.
  • Hydraulic System: Inspect the hydraulic fluid level regularly and change the hydraulic filter according to the manufacturer's recommendations (typically every 500 hours). Use the correct hydraulic fluid type to prevent damage to seals and components.
  • Fuel System: Drain water and sediment from the fuel tank regularly to prevent contamination of the fuel system. Consider using a fuel additive during periods of prolonged storage to prevent fuel degradation.
  • Seasonal Storage: Before storing the tractor for the off-season, properly prepare it by changing the oil and filters, greasing all lubrication points, and protecting exposed metal parts from rust. Disconnect the battery and store it in a cool, dry place.
