“Tractors” or “trailers” are vehicles that are designed to support a variety of uses. The vehicle is large in size, with a structure designed to fit a large engine to deliver power for heavy transport. The rear of the tractor can be swapped out for different trailers depending on the type of product and the mode of transport, such as a flatbed trailer, a dump truck trailer, a low-bed trailer, or a container trailer.
The Importance and Benefits of Commercial Tractors
Tractors are large vehicles that are popularly used in commercial industries, such as logistics businesses, which are the main vehicles that must be had. However, they are considered expensive vehicles, but when compared to their long service life, low maintenance costs because the vehicle's parts last a long time and are highly durable, they are considered a worthwhile investment for this level of transportation.
In terms of usage, the design purpose of the tractor head is to support the transportation of large goods, making the tractor head a convenient vehicle to use, flexible to choose from, and able to accept various types of transportation jobs, and can quickly unload goods to be delivered.
Types of work that require the use of a tractor
The flexibility of tractors makes them a good choice for all types of large-scale transport. Jira Logistics itself offers “Dumper-Trailer” or what many people call “Dump Trailer” mostly with flatbed and lowbed. These dump trailers are convenient to use as there is no need to remove and swap the tails for goods transfer. They are also safer than mother-and-child tractors.
For the type of work that should be used with a tractor, it will focus on large-scale transport work, such as transporting industrial goods, moving industrial machinery, transporting large quantities of construction materials, transporting goods in containers, etc.
Maintenance of tractors to keep them ready for use
Overall, the maintenance of tractors is similar to general cars that will have maintenance according to the general usage distance, such as changing the engine oil every 10,000-20,000 kilometers along with changing the oil filter, checking the grease change interval, grease the wheels, axles and various suspension parts, etc. However, the most important part of the maintenance of tractors is to take care of the joints with the head and tail, such as the leaf spring ears, shackles and the safety system while lifting the dump like grasshopper legs must be able to be used at all times while working. Therefore, it is necessary to check that these devices are not worn out regularly.
