- Do you know that the average maintenance time of a generator will depend on the hours of use? Whenever Caterpillar oil is used, it is recommended that it be changed once a year or every 250 hours of use.
- It is important to carry out this maintenance since the equipment has preventive care that allows minimizing the risks of a major failure in any eventuality.
- The consequences of not performing the maintenance could vary from the simplest to the most complicated and that is:
- Oil and filters eventually lose their function, especially if your generator is not in constant use.
- An oil with many hours of use loses its viscosity and this increases the probability of a high rupture.
- Although most of the damages or failures can be fixed, timely maintenance according to the hours of use avoids high repair costs and the equipment being out of use
