Oil Change Engine:
Typically every 40-50 operating hours or annually. Manual will provide specific recommendations.
Grease Points:
Daily or weekly greasing of various pivot points, kingpins, and axle components is crucial. Manual will identify all points.
Engine Oil:
SAE 30 or SAE 10W-30 (depending on climate and manufacturer recommendation at the time). Manual will confirm specific grades and capacities.
Transmission Hydraulic Fluid:
Gear oil (e.g., SAE 80W-90) for the transmission and differential. Hydraulic fluid (if equipped with power lift) would have its own specification. Manual is essential for confirmation.
Common Wear Items:
Clutch wear, carburetor issues (clogging, adjustment), brake shoe wear, kingpin and spindle wear, potential for oil leaks from seals and gaskets.
Engine Reliability:
Generally robust engines, but can suffer from carbon buildup, valve seat wear, and ignition system faults if not maintained.
