4 Maintenance Checks Before Working in Rainy Season

Pre-work machinery inspection during the rainy season is essential for safety and maximum performance. Here are 4 key items to check:

1. Check hydraulic systems: Regularly clean dirt and mud around hydraulic cylinder rods before and after work to prevent rust, seal wear, and cylinder leakage.

2. Check undercarriage: Clean out accumulated mud and debris from tracks and rollers daily. Mud buildup can cause slippage when mounting the machine and accelerates track wear.

3. Check electrical systems: Inspect wire harness insulation and headlights. Exposed or damaged wiring must be repaired immediately to prevent short circuits.

4. Check ground conditions: Assess site slope stability and mud depth before entering to prevent machine rollover.
