Engine Maintenance Guide: Extending the Life of Your Construction Machinery’s Power Core

Regular professional maintenance is crucial for preserving the performance and extending the service life of your construction machinery engines. By following scientific maintenance methods, you can significantly reduce operating costs and avoid unexpected downtime. The guide below provides practical advice, using specific models from several renowned brands as examples.

1.Use Genuine Parts & Oils

Ensure the use of high-quality lubricating oils and filters recommended by the manufacturer. For instance, when maintaining a Weichai WP3.6ND88E430 engine or a Yuchai YCK16N gas engine, using oil that meets specifications and genuine filter elements can effectively prevent wear caused by poor lubrication. 

2.Manage Operating Temperature

Engines need to operate within an optimal temperature range. Typically, the coolant temperature should be maintained between 80-95°C. For engines like the Cummins B6.7G natural gas engine or the Shangchai E Series 12.8L diesel engine, regularly check the coolant level and radiator cleanliness to prevent overheating and oil oxidation.

3.Prevent Contaminants & Corrosion

Keep the engine compartment clean and promptly remove dust and oil stains around components like the VGS turbocharger in an Isuzu 4JJ1 engine. For equipment operating in harsh environments, such as a Hitachi ZAXIS270-3 excavator engine, air filters should be cleaned or replaced more frequently.

4.Ensure Stable Loads

Avoid prolonged overloading of the engine. Unstable loads can significantly increase wear. Allowing engines like the Weichai WP7C300-22.5E120 marine engine or the Yuchai YC6CAXM methanol engine to operate under stable conditions can effectively extend their overhaul intervals.

Following these targeted maintenance tips, along with consulting the specific manual for your engine—be it Weichai, Yuchai, Isuzu, Hitachi, Shangchai, or Cummins—will help you maximize your return on investment.
