How to do a good job in maintenance and upkeep of construction machinery in summer

 01. Carry out early maintenance of construction machinery Entering summer, it is best to conduct a comprehensive maintenance and upkeep of construction machinery, and focus on the maintenance and upkeep of equipment and components that are prone to high-temperature faults.

Replace the three filters and oil of the engine, replace or adjust the tape, check the reliability of the fan, water pump, generator, and compressor performance, and carry out maintenance, repair, or replacement if necessary.

Properly increase the viscosity level of the engine oil and check whether the cooling system and fuel system are unobstructed;

Replace aging wires, plugs, and hoses, inspect and tighten fuel pipelines to prevent fuel leakage;

Clean up the oil and dust on the engine body to ensure that the engine is "light loaded" and has good heat dissipation.

 02 Key aspects of maintenance and upkeep.

1. The engine oil and lubricating oil in various parts need to be replaced with summer oil, with a suitable amount of oil; Regularly check for oil leaks, especially fuel, and replenish it in a timely manner.

2. The battery fluid needs to be replenished in a timely manner, the charging current should be appropriately reduced, each circuit connector should be firm and reliable, aging circuits should be replaced, and the fuse capacity should meet the requirements for safe use. The equipment should be equipped with fire extinguishers randomly.

3. Park the equipment in a cool and shaded area as much as possible, avoiding direct sunlight exposure. Reduce the tire pressure appropriately to prevent a tire blowout.

4. Pay attention to the damage of rainwater and dust to the equipment, and it is best to replace various filter elements regularly. The hydraulic system radiator should be cleaned regularly to maintain good heat dissipation. Avoid prolonged overload operations. It is strictly prohibited to use water to cool down if the brake or other parts are overheated.

5. Check whether the steel structure, transmission box, and axle components of the equipment are flexible and have small cracks to prevent increased damage caused by high temperatures in summer. If rust is found, it should be removed, repaired, and painted in a timely manner to avoid excessive rainfall in summer, which may lead to increased corrosion.

The maintenance and upkeep of construction machinery and equipment, especially in high temperature environments in summer, should follow the principle of timely, reasonable, and comprehensive maintenance to improve equipment performance and adapt to external high temperatures and working conditions. Track and manage equipment, timely understand and grasp equipment performance dynamics, and develop specific measures for different equipment during specific operations.
