Common Fault Treatment and Maintenance of Suspension Plow
Introduction
The suspension plow, also known as the coil potatoes, is a simple and convenient agricultural tool used in the best field operations. It has the characteristics of simple operation, high ground adaptation, good riding comfort and high efficiency, etc. It has been widely used in various parts of the world. However, due to improper maintenance, the efficient working of suspension plow may often be affected. Therefore, it is very important to know the proper treatment methods and maintenance of common faults of suspension plow.
Types of Fault
1. Poor cutting performance.
The poor cutting performance of suspension plow is usually caused by improper maintenance of the plow. Before operating the plow, the blade should be properly adjusted to the acceptable cutting depth. In addition, the soil should be evenly compacted and pre-treatment is needed if the soil is too hard. If the soil is too loose, it should be firmly compacted.
2. Low speed.
The low speed of the suspension plow is mainly caused by the power transmission system. The reducer needs to be checked regularly and the bearing needs to be lubricated to ensure the smooth operation of the plow. In addition, the belt tension should be checked and adjusted regularly to ensure that the pulley can rotate properly.
3. High fuel consumption.
The high fuel consumption of the suspension plow is mainly caused by the improper operation as well as the poor maintenance. It is important to ensure that the engine is in good condition and regularly check the fuel filter and fuel line for any blockage or dirt accumulation. In addition, the air filter should be cleaned and replaced regularly.
Maintenance
1. Regularly check and adjust the cutting depth of the suspension plow. The cutting depth should be adjusted to the recommended value and the blades should be sharpened if they become dull.
2. Lubricate the moving parts of the suspension plow regularly. The bearing, reducer, pulley and other moving parts should be properly lubricated to ensure the smooth operation of the plow.
3. Check the fuel filter and fuel line regularly to prevent any blockage. The air filter should be cleaned and replaced regularly.
4. Check the tightening of the drive belt and adjust it to the required tension.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the common faults and treatment methods of suspension plow are mentioned above. With proper fault treatment and maintenance, the suspension plow can be effectively used for its intended purpose. Moreover, periodic maintenance should be done to ensure the long-term service life of the plow.
