As the daylight hours lengthen and temperatures start to rise, spring is the optimal time to prepare your agricultural vehicles and machinery for the upcoming planting and growing seasons.

Ferguson & Menzies, a premier Scottish manufacturer of high-quality lubricants for over 100 years, offers a full range of Opus Lubricants specially designed to help get your equipment in peak operating condition after winter storage. Before heading out to the fields it’s crucial to thoroughly inspect each machine and address any issues. Here’s a quick checklist to help.

Carefully Inspect All Equipment Prior to Use

Before taking tractors, combines or any farm implements out into the fields, be sure to thoroughly inspect each piece of equipment and address any issues. Closely check for signs of damage, rust, leaks, loose parts and alignment problems. Compare against your model-specific owner’s manuals for manufacturer guidance on proper maintenance. For assistance inspecting or repairing any worn components, consult your trusted local agricultural maintenance specialists.

Refresh Vital Fluids to Protect Internal Components

Sitting idle over the winter months can negatively impact the quality and effectiveness of engine oil, coolants, brake fluids and other vital internal lubricants. Old, dirty fluids should be refreshed in accordance with your equipment manufacturer’s recommendations. Consider upgrading to our top-tier Opus Lubricants universal tractor oils tailored to protect critical systems like wet disc brakes, hydraulic components, drivetrain gears and powertrain transmissions.
