Heavy Machinery is the most expensive equipment assets you own. It’s also the costliest to repair or replace. This guide will show you how to save money and extend the life cycle of your equipment with regular maintenance best practices.
Being proactive in your heavy equipment maintenance schedule helps prevent expensive downtime. Regular maintenance helps predict when failure is likely to occur, allowing you to find a solution to problems before they happen.
Preventative maintenance involves regularly scheduled care of the equipment and can include oil changes, tire pressure checks, and regular cleaning.
Reactive maintenance, on the other hand, takes place when a machine fails or is not operating efficiently. It might involve much more downtime than preventative maintenance and cost more as technicians diagnose the equipment’s weaknesses.
