Storage
6 Storage
Tractors must be properly kept and sealed after completing farmland operations, or when they are parked for a
long time (more than one month) for some reasons. Tractors shall be kept in a good environment to prevent rusting,
aging and deformation of the parts.
Before the tractor is sealed, it must be thoroughly cleaned and adjusted and all connectors must be fastened,
and the specified technical maintenance must be completed in accordance with working time, so that the tractor can
be kept in good technical condition.
Important: It is quite important to keep the tractor scientifically and maintain it specially during
its long-term idle time. Otherwise, the tractor's technical condition will deteriorate faster than the working
period.
6.1 Causes of Damage to the Tractor during Storage
6.1.1 Rust and Pollution: During parking, dust and moisture in the air can easily infiltrate into the internal
of the tractor from gaps, orifices and other positions, causing pollution and rusting of parts; compare to the
surfaces of moving parts (such as piston, valve, bearing, gear, etc.), they lose the lubricating oil film protection
of flowing and pressurized because they are still in a certain position for a long time, resulting in corrosion, rust
spots, cement blockage or sticking, and finally turn to scrap.
6.1.2 Aging: Rubber, plastic and other parts, under the sunlight, will age, deteriorate, become brittle, lose
their effect or corrode and rot due to the effect of ultraviolet radiation.
6.1.3 Deformation: The drive belt, tires and other parts are stressed for a long time, resulting in plastic
deformation.
6.1.4 Others: Damp of electrical parts, self-discharge of the battery, etc.
