Did you know that your construction equipment can weigh upwards of 2 tons? With so much ground to cover in and outside of your equipment, ensuring proper maintenance and repairs will be important to the success of your operations. 

In the case of poorly maintained construction equipment, repairing it may be impossible. A new piece of machinery is likely to cost quite a bit of money. Apart from reactive maintenance, it is also important to conduct preventive maintenance. Save time and money by preventing problems before they arise, since you will service the equipment before it becomes ineffective.

Preventative, Regular Maintenance

Regardless of whether your construction equipment has operating issues or not, preventative maintenance is necessary. Integrating regular inspections into your business’ repair and maintenance schedule will ensure that your machinery does not have to be shut down for maintenance. 

As a result, you will be more productive and your equipment will last longer. Construction projects can be delayed for a variety of reasons, and you have to keep in mind that many of them are beyond your control. A good working fleet is something you should always strive for. 

The improvement in productivity and efficiency of construction machinery can help you save money in the long run. Moreover, improperly maintained engines could see a decrease in fuel efficiency, resulting in higher fuel costs. Regular maintenance and repairs can ensure the longevity of your construction equipment.

Pro Tip: Maintaining your equipment will ensure your workers have the tools and equipment necessary to complete their jobs effectively and efficiently. Scheduled maintenance can prevent issues from occurring instead of causing productivity loss. Maintenance is one of the best ways to prevent downtime, especially when breakdowns are unpredictable. 

Optimize Machine Efficiency

Your construction equipment should be as efficient and effective as possible. Keeping your equipment in good condition will minimize downtime and help keep your operations running smoothly. Repairing construction equipment can consume a great deal of your time and resources in your business. In the absence of proper maintenance, your employees will lack the right tools to accomplish their tasks. 

Maintaining your construction equipment routinely is crucial to its long-term performance and will provide you with quality equipment your employees can rely on. 

In order to maintain your heavy machinery properly, you should either enlist the help of an equipment repair professional, or hire an in-house staff member to check the following things:

  • Oil: Quality oil, filled to the proper amount will ensure a healthy system 
  • Fluid levels: check for coolant, oil, fuel and other fluid leaks & levels
  • Functionality: what appears to be out of place or stagnant?
