Cleaning machines...

[Ty Korrigan]

Hi,

What is considered the best way to clean machinery like grinders, tractors and the equipment like flails and rotavators?

I generally brush or scrape the worst off then wash the body work off.

I don't use a pressure washer except on rare occasions but I was thinking a very strong compressor might be the trick having seen such being used for blowing grass out of mower decks at a local machinery workshop.

I pressure wash mine down then re-grease / oil before storing away

Steam cleaner is the only way to go for your type of kit.

Use to use a diesel heated pressure washer to clean forest machines. Boy did it clean all the crap off.

Hot steam clean,

Allow to try,

Using one of them cheap paraffin spray guns blow a generous amount of 50/50 red diesel hydraulic oil over everything.

Kept all our gear including combines, balers etc etc rust free and moving for years
