Troubleshooting Tractor Issues

Your tractor works as hard on your farm as you do, so it only makes sense that it may sometimes give you some problems. Maybe it’s not starting efficiently or maybe you’re finding that its performance is lagging. Either way, you want to nip those problems in the bud before they become major maintenance issues that require days in a repair shop. Here are some ways to troubleshoot problems with your tractor.

Poor Cutting

If you use your tractor as a lawn mower and you find that your grass is looking ragged or simply isn’t being cut efficiently, then you may have dull blades. It’s important to take the blade out and examine it regularly so that you can ascertain whether it needs to be sharpened or replaced.

Sluggish Performance

If your tractor is using up more fuel than usual and also failing to start promptly or operate smoothly, then the engine is likely the culprit. You may need to replace some spark plugs or the entire carburetor, which blends air into your fuel to make the engine run efficiently. Sometimes, the carburetor may simply be clogged up; cleaning it out should do the trick.
