Title: Applying Preventative Maintenance Practices


1
Lesson
  • Applying Preventative Maintenance Practices

2
Interest Approach
  • List the reasons why it is important to follow
    the preventative maintenance schedule.

3
Student Learning Objectives
  • Explain the importance of preventative
    maintenance on engines and equipment.
  • Explain the safety practices to follow when
    servicing equipment.
  • Identify common maintenance practices associated
    with major engine systems.

4
Terms
  • Compression gage
  • Flooding
  • Preventative maintenance

5
Preventative Maintenance
  • Performing of practices to keep equipment in good
    working condition.
  • Properly maintaining agricultural equipment
    requires skill, practice, and quality management.

6
Preventative Maintenance Practices
  • Changing fluids
  • Cleaning components
  • Replacing filters

7
Safety Practices
  • Read and follow all instructions in the
    operators manual.
  • Know all the safety emblems and warning signs
    used for agricultural equipment.
  • Use protective eyewear, clothing, and footwear.

8
Safety Practices
  • Use jackstands, engine stands, and other
    supports.
  • Observe caution around fuels and flammable
    materials.
  • Operate internal combustion engines in
    well-ventilated areas.
  • Place machines in park and lower implements
    before working on them.

9
Safety Practices
  • Work in well-lighted and properly ventilated
    areas.
  • Regularly clean the floor and remove obstacles
    and fluids.
  • Handle batteries safely.
  • Keep fire extinguishers and smoke detectors in
    shop work areas.

10
Safety Practices
  • Use caution when working around high pressure.
  • Use protective hearing devices when working in
    loud areas.
  • Safely dispose of used fluids.

Fuel System Checks
  • Insure that there is gas in the gas tank.
  • Check the spark plug for gasoline.
  • Check the flow of gas from the fuel tank to the
    carburetor.
  • Flooding an excessive amount of gasoline in the
    carburetor.

Compression System Checks
  • Compression gage determines compression
    pressure of the cylinder.

19
Liquid Cooling System Checks
  • Check the hoses and belts for leaks and cracks.
  • Maintain the proper coolant level.
  • Keep the system clean.
  • Use recommended coolant.
  • Pressurize the system and check for leaks.
  • Check the specific gravity of the coolant.
  • Check the condition of the fan.

20
Air Cooling System Checks
  • Remove dirt that can clog air passages
  • Make sure the precleaner is in place
  • Check the fan
  • Makes sure all shrouds are in place

21
Lubrication System Checks
  • Check the engine oil level
  • Change the oil and filters

22
Air Intake System Checks
  • Connect a vacuum gage to the intake manifold
  • Allow the engine to run for a few minutes
  • Record the age reading with the engine operating
  • Compare the readings to the manufacturers
    specifications
  • Inspect the intake system for possible
    restrictions and leaks

23
Review/Summary
  • Why is it important to practice preventative
    maintenance on engines and equipment?
  • What are the safety rules to follow when
    servicing agricultural equipment?
  • What are some common maintenance practices
    carried out on engine systems?
