Proper off-season storage protects your harvester rubber tracks and belts from cracking, dry rot and permanent deformation caused by UV light, ozone, oil and static pressure. Clean all mud, crop residue and chemicals, then fully dry rubber components before storage. Release all tension on mounted tracks and belts. Store in cool, dark, well-ventilated spaces away from heat, fuel and farm chemicals. Avoid heavy stacking, sharp hooks and direct sunlight. Rotate spare parts every 2–3 months. Inspect again before the next harvest. Simple maintenance extends rubber service life and cuts your equipment replacement cost.
