Agricultural machinery, if well maintained by people, can "live a long life"
In recent years, with the popularization of mechanization, small and medium-sized agricultural machinery has gradually entered the homes of ordinary people. Now most rural farmers use modern farm tools such as rotary cultivators, rice harvesters and crushers. At present, the rice harvest has been completed. The harvester that has worked hard for more than a month will "rest" and enter a one-year idle period. After rest, it will continue to "work" next year.
The rice harvester has complex structure, large one-time investment, short service time and long storage time. Therefore, after the autumn harvest, the maintenance and sealing of the harvester should be done in time to ensure the smooth "post" next year?
Remove components and remove sundries
According to the introduction of agricultural technicians, after the autumn harvest, the soil, broken straw, grain and other sundries inside and outside the harvester shall be cleaned in time, washed with water for 1-2 times, dried in the yard dam, and then driven into the hangar for storage.
Remove the drive belt and clean up broken straw and grain... On the 11th, Wu Guangde, a villager in group 2, Nongsheng village, Fushou Township, Nanchuan District, moved the thresher that had just harvested rice from the field to its own yard dam, cleaned up the straw and sludge left in the machine, and then unloaded the drive belt and prepared to put it in the warehouse for storage.
"My machine has been used for three years, and my relatives and neighbors are using it. Because it has been well maintained, it looks very new now. It won't be a problem in another three or five years. " Wu Guangde said.
Comprehensive inspection of vulnerable parts
Wu Guangde is also an "old handle" for planting crops, including rotary cultivators, threshers, small harvesters and other agricultural machinery. He said that no matter what type of machine, it is necessary to comprehensively check the easily worn parts on the harvester. The moving blade and fixed blade, drum nail teeth and other accessories on the engine and header are easy to break. If excessive wear, deformation and damage are found, they should be repaired and replaced.
Wu Guangde introduced that it is also necessary to turn on the water drain switches of the engine water tank and body, drain the water inside, keep it dry, drain the fuel in the oil tank, inject an appropriate amount of clean engine oil into the cylinder, rotate the crankshaft for several turns and clean it. Then coat the rotating bearing, adjusting bolt and clutch on each component with oil or grease to prevent corrosion; Exposed parts with worn or rusty paint shall be painted again after rust removal to prevent corrosion.
Cover the film and put it indoors
Wu Guangde said that the oiling should be done and the cleaning should be done. After doing this, be sure to move the machine indoors for storage. Never put it outdoors or in a rainy place.
The author saw that his family had a ventilated and transparent room with rotary cultivators, threshers, harvesters, etc. each machine was covered with plastic film.
"The film can not only cover the dust, but also keep it dry, which can better protect the machine." Wu Guangde said, "machines are the same as people. If they are well maintained, they can prolong their service life and take up their posts in a better technical state next year."
Seal the machine often
Agricultural technicians also reminded farmers to store batteries separately. After the battery is fully charged, pour out the electrolyte, replace it with distilled water, park it for 6 hours, recharge it for 4 hours, replace the distilled water and recharge it for 2 hours, then pour out the distilled water and fill it with new distilled water for long-term storage. Pay attention to heat preservation and antifreeze in winter; The battery can also be completely discharged. After pouring out the electrolyte, wash it with distilled water for many times until the water is acid free. Pour out the distilled water. After drying, tighten the hole cover and seal the vent hole for long-term storage.
In addition, after sealing the machine, rotate the engine crankshaft by hand more than twice a month, inject a small amount of clean oil into the cylinder, and move the hydraulic lifting handle back and forth 10-20 times to maintain flexibility. Wu Guangde said that every month, he checks and wipes the dust on the machine and Oiles it at intervals.
