Tractor maintenance under special
operation conditions
When operating the tractor under special
conditions (low temperatures, in the de-
sert, on sand, swampy and rocky soils),
customary regularity and volume of
maintenance are preserved.
Besides, below listed works are intro-
duced additionally or carried out more of-
ten.
When operating the tractor in the de-
sert, on sand soils, at higher tempera-
tures and air dustiness conditions.
Fill the engine with oil and fuel by closed
method. After each three shifts, change
oil in the air cleaner tray.
When performing M-1, check:
• oil in the engine, presence of mechanical
impurities in oil is not allowed. Replace, if
necessary;
• central air cleaner pipe (the pipe shall be
clean). Wash and service the air cleaner
after each 20 hours;
• flush the water radiator core with water
jet or blow with air. The radiator shall
be clean; there shall be no oil traces on
its surface. When performing M-2,
wash fuel tank plug.
When operating the tractor at low
temperatures, perform the pre-start
heating of the engine to 20-30°C. At the
end of the shift fully refuel the tanks) at
the temperatures of minus 30°C use arc-
tic fuel) and drain condensate from the
bottle. Fill the cooling system with anti-
freeze.
When operating the tractor on rocky
soil, as well as under mountainous
conditions.
Every shift inspect visually the running gear
a n d other components of the tractor for
damages, as well as tightening of plug of
the engine crankcase, rear axle and FDA
as well as fastening of driving wheels.
Check the air-tightness of engine cooling
system radiator plug.
Under mountainous operating condi-
tions, adjust the fuel pump to reduce its
output capacity to avoid disturbance of
the engine working process within the
following limits:
• at 1500-2000 m above sea level, re-
duce output capacity by 10%;
• at 2000-2500 m – by 15%;
• at 2500-3000 m – by 20 %;
• operation at more than 3000 m is not
recommended..
