Ground Engaging Tools (G.E.T) are vital components of heavy machinery, playing a crucial role in earthmoving operations across construction, mining, and other industries.
The longevity and efficiency of these tools significantly impact the overall productivity and cost-effectiveness of a project.
As such, machine operators must employ proper techniques and maintenance practices to extend the life of their G.E.T and optimise equipment performance.
Here are some essential tips for maximising the lifespan of your Ground Engaging Tools:
• Routine inspections: Conduct regular visual inspections of G.E.T components before and after each shift. Look for signs of wear, damage, or misalignment. Early detection of issues allows for timely repairs or replacements, preventing further damage and downtime.
