“Oops” is not a word anyone wants to hear in the field during harvesting—but it’s one that every operation will hear from time to time. From a broken blade to a snapped shaft, replacement sod cutter parts can cost more than just shipping! Downtime can be one of the most costly factors associated with making repairs. To keep America’s top producers cutting with confidence, Magnum ENP recommends keeping a few key components on shop shelves across the nation.
On-Hand Parts You Need
Keeping parts on hand not only saves operations time—it also gives producers peace of mind when making repairs. Instead of trusting just any parts guy, our team provides the support that operations truly deserve! Here are a few of the most commonly reordered sod cutter parts our support team recommends keeping on hand.
Cutter Blades
No field is 100% perfect, so it’s perfectly natural to have some nicks and cracks from time to time in your cutter blades. Even with the smoothest operation in the industry, our machines create vibrations that wear blades down over time. To keep cuts accurate, our team recommends having a couple sets on hand for both cutters—because your backup could always use a backup!
Wear Pads
On the top and bottom of your drawbar, Magnum features wear pads that allow for a proper connection between the tractor and the machine. However, thousands of vibrations over hours in the field can wear these down. Without these pads, vibrations can wear out the drawbar and an operator faster! To prevent unnecessary wear and tear, we always recommend keeping a couple sets of these pads on hand.
Belts
There are many belts that drive a Magnum harvester from front to back. But like the pads and cutter blades, these can wear out over time. We recommend checking your belts while doing regular maintenance to check for thin spots or uneven wear that may result in more costly repairs if left unchecked. These are some of the most crucial sod cutter parts every operation should keep on their shelves to prevent other costly repairs down the road.
