The Importance of Tractor Service and Maintenance

Your KIOTI® tractors are a valuable asset, which is why you’ll want to take good care of them. As one of the key ownership responsibilities, it’s important to perform regular maintenance to keep your tractor in good working condition. Of course, there are a few things that you can perform yourself in the garage, but more complicated service and repair issues should be best attended to by the professionals. However, if you notice any serious problems, don’t hesitate to bring your KIOTI tractors into Rivera's Machinery, Inc., so we can get them fixed up for you.

Ensure Smooth Performance

While this might seem obvious, the main benefit of tractor maintenance is to keep your machine running smoothly. You won’t be able to perform all the heavy-duty tasks on a farm with poorly maintained equipment. No matter what type of tractor you own, it’s a good idea to set aside some room in your budget for maintenance-related expenses.

Prevent Expensive Repairs

Some people believe that preventative tractor maintenance will cost you too much over time. However, this is not true. For example, properly inflated tractor tires increase the lifespan of the wheels, ensuring potentially thousands of dollars in savings. Plus, when you engage in a thorough examination, you can catch minor issues that will only grow worse (and cost more to repair) over time. Catching these problems early keeps you safer on your property as well as saves you money.

Fix Minor Issues on Your Own

The best thing you can do as a responsible tractor owner is to read your owner’s manual to make sure you understand what you should be looking at or when to schedule regular maintenance. The manual will also have steps for servicing your tractor, as well as maintenance logs to help you keep track of what you’ve done and when. Several issues can be solved with a quick look at the owner’s manual, saving you the time and energy of calling a mechanic.

While you’ll be able to handle some of the problems your tractor faces, you’ll eventually need a trained technician’s help. Remember that if you need professional assistance with maintenance or repairs, you can always contact the service department here at Rivera's Machinery, Inc. in Donna, Texas.
