The Importance of Preventative Maintenance for Heavy Equipment
Preventative maintenance for heavy equipment maintains optimal performance and reduces the risk of breakdowns or malfunctions. Any piece of heavy equipment involved in mining or construction operations is complex machinery that requires regular maintenance to ensure it functions correctly. Heavy equipment can experience a range of issues without proper maintenance that can impact its performance, from minor faults to significant breakdowns. These issues can result in downtime and lost productivity, leading to delays and increased costs.
Recommended Preventive Maintenance Schedule for Heavy Equipment
To keep heavy equipment running efficiently, inspections should include checking fluids, lubricating joints, and cleaning filters. Oil changes and brake checks are needed every 250 hours, while hydraulic system and transmission inspections should be done every 500 hours. At 1,000 hours, replace all fluids and inspect electrical systems. A 2,000-hour deep inspection ensures long-term reliability. We provide scheduled maintenance to keep your equipment in peak condition.
