Waughbro Mechanical have been very busy since our last post. We have had lots of variety coming through the door to keep our mechanic on deck busy. Some of our jobs have consisted from a transfer box and centre driveshaft bearing repair on a McCormick Tractor, Clutch replacement on a Isuzu Elf, Hydraulic hose replacement a silage wagon. We have had a few quad bikes come in for servicing and repairs. Had a couple of Loaders come through, one for a hydraulic hose replacement and one for a drivebelt, tensioner and idler pulley replacement after the belt shredded and wrapped itself around the pulleys . We have a digger with starting issues due to a block gauze in the fuel line, causing fuel not to reach the injector pump and filling the fuel system with air in the process. We have had some trucks come through for pre COF inspections, with one requiring a little list of repairs. Have had a couple of passenger vehicles with a different repairs, one with an temperature gauge not working and requiring both temperature sensors to be replaced, and one for WOF repairs and an electrical fault repair, requiring the lower control arm bushes and transfer case control module needing to be replaced. Waughbro Mechanical has even had the chance to complete repairs on a few smaller machines, with two zero turn lawn mowers requiring servicing and blade replacement. A 350kg plate compactor coming to us with starting issues. We found the battery was flat on inspection due to the regulator been burnt out and the engine not starting due to been well over due for a service, fresh oil, cleaned oil filter (oil filter is washable), fuel filter replaced, new drive belt for the compactor and a new regulator fitted with fresh wiring and the machine is running like a dream. We have had so much more through the door, no day is the same.
Remember for all your Mechanical, Air conditioning and Hydraulic needs, no matter the job, how big or small. Give us Waughbro Mechanical a call and we will be happy to help get you back up and running again. We are servicing Canterbury Wide!!
