When it comes to dozer blade inspections, every minute spent checking key components saves hours of costly downtime later. One often overlooked but critical part? The push arms.
🔧 Why Inspect Push Arms?
While push arms may not be high-wear items, they play a vital role in blade stability, efficiency, and overall machine performance. A quick 5-minute check can prevent unexpected failures that impact productivity and increase repair costs.
💡 Key Areas to Inspect:
✔ Attachment Points – Ensure secure connections at both the blade and machine to maintain stability.
✔ Tilt Cylinders – Check for leaks, wear, or damage to prevent costly hydraulic failures and fluid loss.
✔ Rock Protection – Confirm all guards are in place to shield components from debris.
✔ Structural Integrity – Look for cracks, bends, or excessive wear that could compromise performance.
✔ Pins & Bushings – Look for excessive movement, misalignment and wear.
🚜 Efficiency Starts with Prevention
A well-maintained dozer works hard, lasts longer, and reduces unplanned downtime for unforeseen repairs. Don’t let push arms slow down your operation—integrate them into every inspection using the TrackTreads Undercarriage and Blade inspection App.
