Detailed Explanation of Emergency Handling Methods for Common Agricultural Machinery Failures
??? Oil leakage in agricultural machinery:
1. Once oil leakage from the fuel tank of agricultural machinery is found during use, operation should be stopped immediately (that is, shut down and turn off the engine), the leakage point should be identified, the leaking area should be wiped clean, and temporary adhesives such as bubble gum should be used to plug the leak in time to temporarily stop the leakage. After the agricultural machinery is brought back to the repair shop, it can be repaired with epoxy resin adhesive or the fuel tank can be directly replaced.
2. If the fuel line ruptures, operation must also be stopped immediately. Find the rupture point in the fuel line. For a slight fuel line leak, first wipe the fuel line clean, then apply a layer of candle wax or soap at the rupture point, then wrap sealing tape around the rupture point of the fuel line and tie it tightly.
3. For fuel line leakage, you can also cut at the rupture point of the fuel line, join the two intact ends of the fuel line together, then wrap with sealing tape and tie it tightly (this method is only used for handling relatively long fuel lines).
Agricultural machinery stuck in a mud pit, slipping while driving:
At this time, do not forcefully press the accelerator, so as to avoid damaging the chassis of the agricultural machinery or making the wheels of the agricultural machinery sink deeper. First stop operation, use tools to shovel the mud pit into a slope, spread straw, branches, and other objects on it, then start the agricultural machinery, first using reverse gear and then forward gear to let the agricultural machinery drive out of the mud pit.
Damage to the agricultural machinery belt:
The two ends at the broken part of the belt can be connected and fixed with iron wire. After temporary use, immediately drive to the repair shop to replace the belt, or stop operation and wait until the belt parts arrive before installing and using it.
For agricultural machinery that indeed cannot be driven out of the field due to damaged parts, use the towing method to tow the agricultural machinery away. A steel pipe should be used for rigid towing; soft towing with a leather rope is strictly prohibited. Because agricultural machinery is heavy-duty equipment, it can easily cause secondary hazards such as rear-end collisions. Agricultural machinery with a damaged brake box should not be towed; instead, a carrying tow truck method should be used to transport the damaged agricultural machinery to the repair shop. When towing, the two vehicles should maintain a distance front and back and drive smoothly.
