Workshop Supplies: all for maintenance and repair on the farm

Workshop Supplies: getting the machine started again

Most breakdowns on the farm announce themselves in advance: a dry bearing, a bolt rusted solid, a generator set that will not start in winter. If you keep the right products to hand, that is twenty minutes of work rather than half a day. Here you will find tools and consumables for the farm workshop, from penetrating oil and the grease gun to a generator set for the moment the mains goes down.

Maintenance that prevents downtime

Greasing, oil changes, rust protection: these are the jobs nobody enjoys and that still decide how long a machine lasts. With a one-hand grease gun you reach the nipples behind the frame too, and penetrating oil frees seized joints and drives moisture out of connectors and ignition parts. Add vacuum pump oil for the milking plant and chain oil for the chainsaw, both in container sizes that comfortably last a whole season.

Equipment for emergencies and outdoor work

Not every job happens at the workbench. PTO generators turn the tractor into a backup power unit when the mains goes down and the milking plant or the ventilation has to keep running. Mobile diesel and AdBlue stations bring the fuel to the machine instead of the other way round. Heaters keep the workshop and the pipework frost-free in winter, and hand lamps make sure you can still see what you are working on in the evening.

Frequently Asked Questions

What belongs in every farm workshop?
A grease gun with a hose, a penetrating oil, the right machine oil and a bright hand lamp. That covers the most common jobs without driving to the dealer for every little thing.

PTO generator or a set of its own?
If a tractor is ready to go, the PTO generator is cheaper and needs less servicing. For work far away from the machine, a set with its own engine makes more sense.

How often should I grease?
Your machine's manual says so. As a rule of thumb: before the season and after every longer spell in dust or wet. After washing a machine, grease is due anyway.
