Pre-operative Check-up of Tools, Implements and
Equipment
Pre-operational inspection of tools, implements and
equipment prior to every use will reduce the chance of
operating in an unsafe manner. This makes it easier to spot
and deal with maintenance issues early before they turn
into a problem causing down time, damage or expensive
repairs. Unsafe tool, implement and equipment can also
cause injury to the operator or other workers and damage
to facilities or product.
1. Checking of Farm Implements
Farm implements like ordinary plow and wooden
harrow should be checked thoroughly before use.
Loosened bolts and nuts should be tightened
firmly. For implements mounted on machineries,
take into consideration the following:
 fit attachments according to
the manufacturer's
instructions
 never alter, modify or
raise the height of the
draw bar unless provided
for by the manufacturer
 regularly check safety
pins on towed lift-wing
implements, to ensure
they are not worn
 ensure all guards on towed
implements are in place
before operating
 never hitch above the
centerline of the rear axle,
around the axle housing or
to the top link pin
 never adjust or work on
implements while they are
in motion
 when parking, always lower
the three-point linkage and
towed implement
 disc plow and harrow,
should also be lubricated
on their moving parts like
bearings
2. Pre-Operational Checks for
Tractors
Whether you have been farming for 50 years or
50 days, you should start your work day with a
pre-operational check of your tractors before
heading out to the field. By checking your
tractor before using it, you could prevent costly
repairs, down time and aggravation. Before
even starting the tractor, go through the
following checklist items.
Fuel level - Make sure you have
sufficient fuel in the tank.
Check your battery - Make sure that
the battery terminals are not corroded.
Check your tires - Not only should you
check the air pressure but also make
sure that the lug nuts are tight. Look at
the condition (e.g., tread) of the tires. If
you notice that you have low tire
pressure, look for air leakage from
around the valve stem.
Loose or defective parts - Take time to
really examine the tractor to look for
loose or defective parts such as a
frayed or worn fan belt. Replace,
tighten or make necessary repairs
before heading out to the field.
SMV (Slow Moving Vehicle) Emblem -
If your SMV emblem is faded or
distorted in color or shape, it is time to
replace it with a new SMV emblem to
increase your visibility to others.
Fluid leaks - Look for any fluid leaks on
the ground beneath the tractor. Also
check fluid levels for coolant, engine
oil, and hydraulic oil levels as well. You
can do some very serious damage to
your tractor if you run out of these
fluids.
Operator's platform area - You may spend
much of your day on the operator platform so
check the steps to make sure you can get safely
on and off of the tractor. Examine the area
around the seat to make sure it is clear of
debris or tools that could cause you to trip. You
should have a rollover protection structure
(ROPS) on your tractor so always make sure
your seat belt is operable and that you buckle
it.
Fire extinguisher - Check your fire
extinguisher to make sure it is charged.
Lighting/flashers - Check headlights and
warning lights/flashers to make sure all of
the lights are working and replace bulbs if
necessary.
Visibility from operator's seat - Clean
any dirty cab windows to provide the
best visibility for you from the
operator's seat.
Visibility from operator's seat - Clean
any dirty cab windows to provide the
best visibility for you from the
