- Hydraulic System: Inspect the hydraulic fluid level regularly and check for leaks. Replace the hydraulic filter every 250 hours or annually to maintain optimal hydraulic performance.
- Fuel System: Use fresh, clean gasoline and consider adding a fuel stabilizer if the tractor will be stored for an extended period. Check the fuel filter regularly and replace it as needed to prevent fuel line clogging.
