Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I schedule preventative maintenance for heavy equipment?
It depends on the equipment type, usage hours, and working conditions. For most industrial assets, every 250 to 500 hours is standard. Review OEM guidelines, track wear patterns, and adjust frequency based on operating demands to avoid unexpected failures and costly unplanned downtime.
How quickly can emergency breakdowns be resolved?
Response times depend on location, technician availability, and parts on hand. In most cases, critical faults can be attended within hours if arranged early. To minimise delays, keep essential spares onsite and provide clear fault descriptions when booking the service.
Can maintenance be done on-site or does equipment need to be moved?
Many services can be completed on-site, including diagnostics, hydraulic work, and component fitting. However, if major welding or machining is required, the asset may need to be transported to a workshop. Discuss access and lifting requirements in advance to avoid complications.
