2025-07-20

Regular and proper maintenance is crucial for maximizing the lifespan and ensuring optimal performance of your stringing equipment:

  • Routine Inspections: Daily checks of hydraulic hoses, fluid levels, wire ropes, sheaves, and braking systems for wear, damage, or leaks.

  • Lubrication: Regular lubrication of moving parts, bearings, and critical joints as per manufacturer guidelines.

  • Hydraulic System Checks: Monitoring hydraulic fluid quality, filter replacement, and pressure checks to ensure system efficiency.

  • Wire Rope Care: Regular inspection, cleaning, and replacement of anti-twist steel wire ropes as they are subject to significant wear.

  • Sheave Maintenance: Inspection and replacement of worn or damaged stringing block liners and bearings to prevent conductor damage.

  • Calibration: Periodic calibration of dynamometers and control systems to ensure accurate tension and speed readings.

  • Storage: Proper storage of equipment when not in use, protecting it from elements and unauthorized access. We provide detailed maintenance manuals with all our equipment and can offer training on best maintenance practices.
