拖拉机存储

Now that summer has drawn to a close, many farmers have completed the harvest and are looking to put their machines away for the winter. You don’t just want to leave your precious 拖拉机 out in the open all winter without maintaining it, allowing it to be buried in snow. This neglect could lead to corrosion and breakdown, and you’ve invested far too much in your 拖拉机 to allow it to fall into disrepair between seasons.

Storing your 拖拉机 securely is a great way to keep it in peak condition so that it can continue to provide you with years of use. 十大网赌平台, with locations in Ste. 十大正规网赌平台 and Leadington, is your 密苏里州 拖拉机 dealer. Read on to learn more about proper 拖拉机 storage so you can keep your farm equipment safe over the winter.

Perform Basic 维护 Tasks

第一个, you’ll want to make sure you’ve maintained your 拖拉机 as best you can before you put it away for the season.

• Check the engine oil to see whether it’s sludgy and in need of a change. 如果油是透明的, you can top it off and move on, 但如果它是不透明的, you’ll need to change the oil and oil filter at the same time.
• Drain the fuel from your gasoline tank and fill it with fresh fuel, to which you’ll add a stabilizer to prevent water from separating out and causing the tank interior to rust.
• Remove the battery and store it on a trickle charger in a cool and dry place like your garage.
• Inspect all of your 拖拉机’s tires for signs of wear or embedded objects. Make sure they’re under pressure by about a third before storing the 拖拉机 on supporting blocks or stands to prevent flat spots and uneven wear. This will help to save your tires so they won’t need replacing as quickly.

清洁你的机器

下一个, you should thoroughly clean your 拖拉机 from top to bottom, getting into every nook and cranny you can. You’ll probably need to hose off mud from the undercarriage and wheels before you can start scrubbing. Make sure to use a milder detergent like a car wash soap or dish soap. Try to prevent water from getting into the instrument panel or the engine. After you’re done, you should lubricate your grease points, such as the hydraulic cylinder rods. Make sure the 拖拉机 is dry before you store it.

封面 & 储存在室内

在理想的情况下, you will have an indoor place to keep your 拖拉机 over the winter, like your barn or shed or garage. You don’t want to leave your 拖拉机 vulnerable to inclement weather by storing it out of doors. If you don’t have a place to store it on your property, consider renting a storage unit to keep it secured. But chances are pretty good you do have somewhere to put it.

Even when your 拖拉机 is stored indoors, it should be covered with a snug cover that will prevent debris from building up on it. Avoid plastic, but find something that is water-repellent just in case moisture does get in.
