36 years of Heavy Equipment, Landscape & Construction machinery Maintenance tips and tricks

What happens here

The video begins by introducing the concept of heavy equipment maintenance, differentiating between 'daily maintenance' (routine checks and lubrication) and 'deferred maintenance' (repairs that can wait but eventually need addressing). The importance of understanding these types of maintenance is highlighted to ensure continuous operation and prevent costly breakdowns. This initial segment also briefly shows individuals inspecting tires and general equipment condition, setting the stage for more detailed maintenance tasks.

Goal: Understand the concepts of daily and deferred maintenance for heavy equipment.

It's 40° in Minnesota and it finally feels like mother nature's is not punching you in the gut every time you step outside. So, we are going to be doing maintenance. We're going to be doing a lot of maintenance today and we're going to be talking about some of the subtle differences and not so subtle differences. The things like deferred maintenance versus daily maintenance and what that exactly means. So, without wasting any more time, let's see what the guys are up to. What's up, boys? Up. Boys and toys. What are we looking at? That doesn't mean that's what you want to run them at. Some people prefer to keep the tires a little bit lower because that actually adds a little bit of cush to their ride, believe it or not. What else do we got going on today?
