Engineered with robust equipment and built to last, excavators are powerful tools capable of taking on a variety of tasks without missing a beat. But like any other piece of equipment, excavators require daily maintenance inspections, professional inspections, and repair checks in order to continue running efficiently.
Your excavator will give several signs that it is in need of maintenance and/or repairs, including wear and tear that might not be visible. Regular professional maintenance is necessary to keep your excavator operating optimally and results in better fuel efficiency, higher productivity, lower costs, and reduced downtime. It also prolongs the life of your machine.
What are the key features of maintenance checks and your maintenance options?
Maintenance is the single most important part of keeping your excavator running well, whether it’s daily maintenance, professional maintenance, or repair sessions.
Your daily maintenance can consist of: checking all nuts, bolts, guards, bumpers, and tracks; cleaning the debris of the cab and undercarriage, including built-up dirt; checking the track tension, coolant, engine oil, and hydraulic systems; draining the fuel system water separator and monitoring fuel levels; and maintaining daily checks of your machine can all help to maintain safety and efficiency on site.
Professional maintenance can consist of checking the diagnostics, performing minor and extensive repairs as needed, updating any technology, servicing the engine and components, and checking the undercarriage. Professional servicing is an essential step to ensure the longevity of your machine, no matter what type of equipment.
Professional services, depending on the management and usage of your machine, can consist of servicing monthly or every three months, or yearly service intervals.
