Unveiling the secrets of loader accessories: analysis of common problems and key points of maintenance

Mar 6th,2025 89 Views

In the daily use of the loader, the normal operation of key accessories plays a decisive role in its overall performance and work efficiency. The following are some common accessory failures and corresponding maintenance points:

1. Transmission and drive axle failure and maintenance: As a key component of power transmission, the transmission may have internal oil circuit blockage or lack of oil, which will seriously affect its transmission efficiency. In addition, damage to the overrunning clutch is not uncommon, which will cause abnormal power transmission. If the drive axle makes abnormal sounds and overheats during operation, it may indicate serious problems inside. In order to prevent these failures, it is necessary to regularly and carefully check the oil level and oil quality of the transmission and drive axle. Once the oil volume is insufficient or the oil quality is deteriorating, lubricants that meet the specifications should be added or replaced in time. At the same time, the parts in the transmission and drive axle, such as bearings, gears, etc., should be fully inspected. Once signs of damage are found, they must be replaced in time to ensure the stable operation of the transmission system.

2. Engine failure and maintenance: The engine is the power heart of the loader, and its performance directly determines the working ability of the loader. Common engine failures include overheating, insufficient power, and fuel system problems. In order to ensure the normal operation of the engine, it is necessary to regularly check the cooling system to ensure that the coolant is sufficient and the heat dissipation effect is good; clean and maintain the fuel system to ensure the smooth supply of fuel; and clean or replace the air filter in time to allow the engine to "breathe freely" and maintain a good working condition.

3. Hydraulic system failure and maintenance: As the main transmission system of the loader, the hydraulic system plays a pivotal role in the work. However, it is also prone to some failures, such as hydraulic oil overheating, leakage, and oil pump noise. In order to reduce the occurrence of these failures, it is necessary to regularly check the oil level and oil quality of the hydraulic oil, and replenish or replace the hydraulic oil in time to maintain the pressure and lubrication performance of the system. At the same time, pay close attention to the seals of the hydraulic system. Once damage or aging is found, replace them immediately to prevent hydraulic oil leakage and affect the normal operation of the system.

4. Electrical system failure and maintenance: The electrical system is an indispensable and important part of the normal operation of the loader. Its failure may be manifested as circuit failure, sensor failure or bulb damage. In order to ensure the stable operation of the electrical system, it is necessary to regularly check the circuit to see if there is any damage, short circuit or poor contact; calibrate and maintain the sensor to ensure the accuracy of its data; check and replace the bulb to ensure the normal operation of the lighting system.

5. Tire and wheel failure and maintenance: Tires and wheels are key accessories for the loader to contact the ground and are under great pressure and wear. Common problems include excessive tire wear and wheel damage. In order to extend their service life, it is necessary to regularly check the condition of the tires and wheels, observe whether the wear degree and air pressure of the tires are normal, and whether the wheels have cracks or deformation. Once the tire is worn or the wheel is damaged, it should be replaced in time to ensure the driving safety and stability of the loader.

It should be noted that different brands of loaders may have differences in design and construction, so the failure manifestations and maintenance methods of their accessories will also be different. In order to ensure that the loader is always in good operating condition, it is recommended to perform regular and comprehensive maintenance and eliminate the fault in time once it is found. At the same time, operators should strictly follow the correct operating methods and maintenance specifications to use the loader, which can not only improve work efficiency, but also effectively extend the service life of the loader.
