Farm Equipment

CALL US : 775-242-7209
Like all other equipment, properly maintaining your farm equipment ensures it’s functional when you need it. Maintaining equipment in storehouses and cold rooms also prevents losses by keeping your produce from spoiling and thus becoming inconsumable.
Some benefits of preventive maintenance include: 
  • Ensuring farm processes run smoothly and on schedule by preventing random breakdowns of equipment
  • Preventing losses and spoilage in storage areas.

There are some equipment maintenance processes that you can easily perform on your own on the farm:        
  
  • Checking battery voltage
  • Checking battery poles for corrosion
  • Checking the levels of engine oil and other fluids
  • Checking tires for proper tire pressure and treads
  • Lubricating chains, cables, and other moving parts
  • Pressure washing the wheels

Farm Equipment Types That Require Maintenance

All machinery on your farm requires regular maintenance. This includes but isn’t limited to:
  • Balers

  • Cultivators
  • Dispensers
  • Fume washers
  • Harvesters
  • Irrigation systems
  • Manure spreaders
  • Mixers
  • Planters
  • Plows
  • Seed drills
  • Silos
  • Sprayers
  • Storehouses
  • Tractors

There are two main categories of farming equipment:
  • Movable equipment
  • Fixed/immovable equipment
 
Both types of equipment need to be inspected regularly and maintained properly to ensure consistently reliable functioning. 

Fluid Inspection and Replacement

You should inspect the fluid in your agricultural machinery frequently as contaminants such as dust tend to sneak into the said fluids. These contaminants compromise performance and might lead to equipment breakdowns if unaddressed.
 
You should:
  • Check your engine oil and transmission fluid every day.
  • Check your coolants and hydraulic fluid every year. 
Moving Parts Lubrication
​

Moving parts need to be lubricated. This minimizes friction between them which often leads to overheating and causes damage to the parts in question.
 
Grease should be applied to all moving parts regularly. Your owner’s manual should contain a maintenance schedule. Make a point of consulting it if you are uncertain of how often you need to lubricate the moving parts of your machines.
Filter Inspection and Replacement
​
Filters keep unwanted particles like dust out. Clogged filters negatively impact the operation of your equipment so regular maintenance and replacement are needed.
 
There are two major types of filters:
 
  • Oil filters - change them with your oil
  • Air filters - inspect them once a week.
Regular Inspections

Punishing work environments and harsh weather places a great strain on your equipment, increasing the chances of something breaking down. Regular inspection is therefore necessary. You should be on the lookout for:
 
  • Unusual sounds and smells
  • Pits, cracks, and fractures
  • Loose pins and bolts
  • Loose belts or chains
  • Any kind of leak 
Bearings Inspection

Rotating parts like wheel and conveyor belt motors rely on ball bearings for smooth operation. These ball bearings need to be inspected for damage and kept lubricated so as to keep functioning properly. Damaged ball bearings produce a grinding sound and often overheat. Factors that influence the servicing of ball bearings are:
 
  • The frequency of lubrication
  • The operating environment
  • The length of use
Calibration of Equipment

Calibration is an essential part of farm equipment maintenance. This is especially true of temperature regulation equipment. For example, you need to chill your milk, eggs, fruits, and vegetable without freezing them, but you will need to keep your meat below the freezing point.
 
The margins between an appropriate chilling temperature and a point that’s still chilly but a little too warm can be razor-thin. Keep it too warm and the food is risks getting spoiled. Keep it too cold and either the flavor is ruined or in the case of eggs, they crack.
 
Thus, precise calibration of thermostats is necessary to prevent food spoilage and financial losses. Calibration also extends to weighing equipment like stats.
