Maintenance and cleanliness of the lubrication system keeps all sorts of
equipment alive. What sort of maintenance do you perform on your

Check hydraulic level annually...there is a filter on the return line;
it has been replaced once I believe. Hours are pretty high on the
schedule and as a yard tractor it doesn't get hours like field tractors
do...
