The Problem of Seasonal Downtime

A significant portion of agricultural machinery sits idle for several months each year — in winter, when field work is impossible. During downtime, bearings are prone to corrosion, lubricant separates, and seals lose elasticity.

Causes of Damage During Downtime

  • Corrosion due to moisture condensation
  • Lubricant separation and oxidation
  • Loss of elasticity of rubber seals
  • Formation of indentations on raceways (Brinelling)
  • Contamination by dust and dirt

Conservation Recommendations

To preserve bearings during downtime, it is recommended to:

  1. Perform full lubrication of bearings before conservation
  2. Install protective covers on exposed bearings
  3. Store machinery in a dry, well-ventilated space
  4. Rotate shafts once a month to redistribute lubricant
  5. Inspect bearing condition before the start of the season
