Diagnostic work may include:

• Fault-code and live-data assessment
• No-start and hard-start diagnosis

• Battery, starter-motor and alternator testing
• Wiring, sensor and connector testing

Scheduled Servicing and Preventative Maintenance

Earthmoving machinery can be serviced according to engine hours, manufacturer schedules and operating conditions.

Scheduled work may include:

• Engine oil and filter replacement
• Fuel and air-filter servicing
• Fluid-level and condition checks
• Cooling-system inspection
• Battery and charging-system checks
• Belt and hose inspection
• Leak and visible-damage inspection
• Defect reporting and maintenance planning

Dust, heat, heavy loading, extended idling and low-speed operation are considered when planning maintenance.

Hydraulic, Cooling and Electrical Support

Depending on the equipment and fault, support may include:

• Hydraulic leak and hose assessment
• Investigation of pump, valve, cylinder and control concerns
• Radiator and cooling-system repairs
• Cooling-fan and temperature-control diagnosis
• Starting and charging-system repairs
• Sensor, wiring and electrical fault finding
• Work-light and accessory electrical repairs

Air-conditioning work is also available under ARCtick authorisation number AU62626. See our machinery air-conditioning page.

Breakdown Repairs and Workshop Support

On-site breakdown work begins by identifying the fault and determining whether a safe, practical repair can be completed at the location.

Where major component removal, extended testing or workshop equipment is required, we explain the available repair path rather than attempting unsuitable field work.

Mobile attendance and after-hours support are subject to location, access, technician availability and the nature of the breakdown.

Information Needed for a Plant Breakdown

When calling, provide:

• Equipment make and model
• Serial number where available
• Exact site location and access requirements
• Fault codes or warning messages
• What happened before the failure
• Whether the machine starts, moves or operates
• Any site-induction or safety requirements
