Machine Replacement and Refurbishment

Agricultural machinery is subjected to tough tasks and high loads in tough working conditions all year round. Therefore, proper and regular maintenance can protect the machine from serious damage and extend its life and productivity. Replacing certain parts should be a regular part of your maintenance routine, which will keep your machine in optimal condition and increase its longevity.

Types of Replacement Parts

There are two main options for replacement parts - original equipment manufacturer (OEM) or aftermarket. While each has its advantages, OE products are the most reliable and provide the best return on investment over the life of your equipment.

1. Regularly checking the oil level will help identify potential problems. Brown oil indicates water in the oil, which can be caused by a cracked head gasket.

2. When checking the battery, the terminals should not be corroded

3. If you notice that your tire pressure is low, look for air leaks around the valve stem.

4. Look for any fluid leaks on the ground. Also check the coolant, engine oil, and hydraulic oil levels.

5. Take the time to thoroughly inspect the machine to look for loose or faulty parts, such as a worn fan belt. Replace, tighten, or make any necessary repairs.

Proper installation of spare parts

To do this, it is essential to familiarize yourself with the machine by reading the provided manual or even online reviews from other users. If the spare parts are installed correctly, you can prevent unnecessary injuries and also keep the machine running at peak performance. Keep in mind that different brands of heavy equipment require different methods of repairing spare parts.
