Compact Tractor Off-Season Preparation Tips

1. Clean Thoroughly

Wash away dirt, mud, and debris. Scrape buildup, pressure-wash carefully, and let everything dry to prevent rust and corrosion.

2. Change Oil & Filters

Old oil can damage the engine. Drain and replace oil and filters. Check air, fuel, and hydraulic filters if due.

3. Protect the Fuel System

Add stabiliser to a full tank and run the engine briefly. For long storage, drain fuel lines and tank completely.

4. Top Off All Fluids

Check coolant, hydraulic oil, and transmission fluid. Look for contamination, top up, or flush when needed.

5. Care for the Tyres

Inflate to the recommended PSI. Park on boards or mats to avoid flat spots and moisture damage from concrete.

6. Maintain the Battery

Disconnect or use a trickle charger. Keep terminals clean and corrosion-free for smooth restarts later.

7. Grease All Fittings

Apply quality grease to joints, pivots, bearings, and linkages. Lubrication protects against rust and wear.

8. Store It Right

Keep the tractor in a dry, covered area. Use a breathable cover — avoid plastic tarps that trap moisture.

9. Log Maintenance Tasks

Note down oil changes, fluid checks, battery care, and attachment storage. A log keeps records clear and helps with warranties.
