Preventive Maintenance

STOP TROUBLE BEFORE IT STARTS.

KOMO’S Preventive Maintenance Programs do just that! One of the elements necessary to help ensure machine availability is regular maintenance. Performance of the manufacturer’s recommended maintenance should be a priority. Not only will it help to keep your machine in production, it may result in a higher trade or resale value. An additional advantage is that you will have verifiable maintenance records, which help to validate warranty claims.

The Preventive Maintenance will be performed by a KOMO factory-trained technician, ensuring that all required maintenance is performed correctly, and the latest factory-recommended procedures are followed.

Program Details

The Preventive Maintenance tasks performed may vary with each visit, dependent upon machine model, hours and options. At a minimum, all recommended maintenance procedures for the current machine hours will be performed. Program pricing includes technician time onsite as well as travel time. All travel and living expenses will be invoiced separately. Multiple machine pricing discounts may apply. All parts replaced outside of the PM kit listed below will be invoiced to the customer. Customer is responsible for furnishing replacement fluids and proper disposal of all fluids and components replaced during the PM.
