The 10 Maintenance Activities That Will Make Your Operval Remote-Controlled Dumper Super Efficient

Regular maintenance of your remote-controlled dumper is essential to ensure optimal performance and a long lifespan for your dumper. If you use the dumper every day, it’s crucial to frequently perform the following operations to avoid potential malfunctions. Here are the key steps to follow:

1. Check the oil level: Your dumper’s engine needs the correct oil level to function efficiently. Periodically check the oil level and add more if necessary to avoid engine damage.
2. Clean the air filter: A clean air filter is essential to ensure the engine receives a sufficient amount of clean air, preventing impurities from entering and compromising engine performance.
3. Check the air intake area: Make sure the air intake area is free of obstructions and dust, allowing the engine to breathe properly.
4. Check the coolant level: Maintaining the correct coolant level prevents engine overheating, protecting it from potential damage caused by excessive heat.
5. Clean the radiator: A clean radiator is crucial for engine cooling. Ensure you remove dust and debris that could prevent proper heat dissipation.
6. Lubrication: Regular lubrication of the dumper’s moving parts is essential to reduce wear and ensure smooth operation. Check the lubrication points indicated in the user manual and apply the necessary grease.
7. Check the hydraulic oil level: The dumper’s hydraulic system needs an adequate oil level to function correctly. Check and top up if necessary.
8. Check the fuel level: Keeping the fuel tank sufficiently full not only prevents the engine from stopping suddenly but also helps maintain the fuel system in good condition.
9. Clean the air filter: Yes, this task needs to be repeated! It’s so important that it should be performed regularly, especially in dusty environments. Double-checking the air filter helps keep the engine efficient.
10. Track tensioning: Proper track tension is crucial for the dumper's maneuverability and safety. On Operval dumpers, this operation is particularly simple thanks to the grease tensioning system, which allows for easy and quick adjustment without complications.

The Importance of Using Biodegradable Grease in Earth-Moving Equipment

When it comes to earth-moving equipment like remote-controlled dumpers, it’s important to consider the environmental impact of daily operations. One often overlooked aspect is the use of grease for lubricating moving parts. In these machines, grease is considered "lossy," meaning it is gradually released into the environment during use. For this reason, Operval is committed to providing machines that use biodegradable grease. This choice not only reduces environmental impact but also shows respect for the surrounding ecosystem, particularly in sensitive areas. Using biodegradable grease is a responsible practice that Operval adopts to ensure its machines are not only efficient but also environmentally sustainable.

Following these simple maintenance steps will help keep your Operval remote-controlled dumper in optimal condition, ensuring efficiency, reliability, and reduced environmental impact day after day.
