Understanding the Basics of Tractor Service

Regular servicing of your tractor ensures it remains reliable and efficient. The service basics include an oil change, replacement of worn-out parts, lubricating movable parts, checking tire pressure, and regular filter changes. You’ll want to schedule these interventions after every 100 hours of usage or annually—whichever comes first.

Beyond Basic: When to Service Your Tractor

Certain scenarios necessitate more frequent servicing. For example, you’ll want to tune up your machine at half the usual interval (after 50 hours or six months) during periods of high use. Additionally, new tractors often need an initial check-up after their first 50 running hours to ensure all parts function correctly.

Stay Ahead with Owners Manuals

Every brand and model of tractor is unique and may have specific requirements. An owner's manual will provide accurate information about when different tractor parts require servicing, so keep your user’s manual handy. Keeping a record of past services can also serve as a reference point to stay ahead in preventative maintenance schedules.
