How to maintain the tractor when it is not in use for a long time?

Mar 24, 2023

  The tractor should be fully lubricated and maintained before long-term parking and storage. During the maintenance period, the moving parts should be maintained regularly by shaking the car or starting it for a short time. When parking in winter, special attention should be paid to heat preservation and antifreeze. It is best to use high-quality antifreeze to drain the cooling water in the engine block and radiator to reduce corrosion on the block and radiator.

  During the parking period, the dust and moisture in the air are easy to invade the inside of the machine, causing the relevant parts to be polluted and rusted. Due to the strong effect of ultraviolet rays under direct sunlight, rubber parts are easily aged and deteriorated. Therefore, the tractor should be stored in storage after maintenance, and the intake and exhaust pipes should be closed. For a single-cylinder diesel engine, the piston should be at the compression top dead center position and the cylinder should be closed by the intake and exhaust valves. In addition, the important parts can be protected with a cover or removed and placed in a cabinet for special storage.

   During the parking period, if the tractor tires land on a fixed position for a long time, the carcass may be damaged due to local excessive deflection under the load. Therefore, the tire inflation pressure should be appropriately increased, and the tire landing position should be changed regularly. It is best to prop the tractor frame off the ground to prevent the tire from bearing the load of the fuselage.

The battery should be removed from the vehicle for special storage. Before storage, adjust the specific gravity and liquid level of the electrolyte according to the regulations, and charge the battery to a fully charged state. During the storage period, check the storage status every 10 days and recharge it in time. Carry out full charge and discharge treatment once a month, so that the battery is always stored in a fully charged state. Always keep the surface of the battery clean and dry, and pay attention to keeping the battery warm and antifreeze in winter.
