As temperatures gradually rise, spring plowing begins, and various agricultural machines are put into operation. To minimize equipment failures, improve operational efficiency, ensure safe production, and maximize the benefits of farm machinery, it's essential to follow specific precautions during this critical season. Below are key guidelines for the proper use and maintenance of agricultural equipment in spring.
First, all types of agricultural machinery should be inspected and prepared according to the manufacturer’s instructions before use. This includes cleaning, lubricating, adjusting, and tightening components to ensure the machines are in optimal working condition when they start operating.
Second, maintaining the lubrication system of power machinery—such as tractors and diesel engines—is crucial. In addition to using the correct type of lubricating oil, it's important to strictly follow the recommended maintenance schedule and procedures. Regularly clean the lubrication system and replace filter elements to reduce wear and extend the life of the machinery.
Third, due to the unstable and fluctuating temperatures in early spring, attention must be given to the cooling systems of power machinery:
1. Continue anti-freezing measures. If nighttime temperatures drop below freezing, drain the cooling water to prevent freezing and potential damage to the engine block.
2. When starting the machine in cold conditions, perform a warm-up before operation.
3. Monitor the engine temperature carefully. The engine should not be operated under load until the coolant temperature reaches at least 40°C. Once it reaches 60°C or higher, it can begin loading. The ideal operating temperature range is between 80°C and 95°C to minimize unnecessary wear on the engine.
Fourth, when performing tasks such as rotary tilling, sowing, or irrigation with a tractor, always follow the correct operating procedures to ensure safety and efficiency.
In addition to these, there are four essential "net" practices that should not be overlooked:
**Net Fuel**: Most farm machinery uses diesel engines, so keeping the fuel clean is vital. There are three effective methods for purifying diesel: first, let purchased diesel settle for over 96 hours before filtering it through a hopper with a layer of silk cloth. When drawing fuel from a drum, wrap the filter with a layer of silk cloth or wax paper, and clean or replace it regularly.
**Net Lubricant**: Always use clean, high-quality lubricants that meet the machine's specifications. Clean the oil filter elements regularly. For rotor-type filters, place a suitable piece of kraft paper inside to help trap dirt through centrifugal force. When cleaning, use an air pump to blow from the inside out, then scrub gently with a brush—never wipe by hand. Apply clean, calcium-based grease where needed and avoid mixing different types of lubricants.
**Air Net**: The engine draws in 2–4 cubic meters of air per minute. To ensure the air entering the cylinder is clean, inspect and clean the air filter regularly.
**Cooling Water Net**: Use soft water—such as rainwater, snowmelt, or treated tap water—for the cooling system. Clean the system periodically with a mixture of 1% caustic soda and 0.5% kerosene by volume.
**Tools and Nets**: Since most farm machinery operates outdoors, it is often exposed to dust, mud, and moisture. Regular cleaning is necessary to prevent rust and corrosion. If needed, repaint damaged areas to protect the equipment from further degradation.
