Regarding Yizhan's skid steer loaders, the replacement of vulnerable parts, the general compatibility of components, and the availability of parts have the following characteristics:
Convenient Replacement of Some Parts: For some common vulnerable parts, such as air filters and oil filters, their installation positions are relatively accessible. Usually, you just need to open the engine hood or the relevant inspection port and use simple tools to disassemble and replace them. For example, the position of the filters on the T360 loader is reasonably designed, and maintenance personnel can operate relatively conveniently.
Difficult Replacement of Complex Parts: For some more complex parts, such as some seals and oil pipe joints in the hydraulic system, if they are damaged and need to be replaced, it may be quite troublesome. Since the hydraulic system is usually relatively complex, some parts may be located deep inside the machine, and some surrounding protective plates, brackets, and other components need to be removed first before replacement. This requires professional maintenance knowledge and skills, as well as a certain amount of maintenance time.
Moderate General Compatibility: As a relatively small brand, Yizhan's components may not have as good general compatibility as some large well-known brands. The general compatibility of components between different models may be limited, and the interchangeability of components with skid steer loaders of other brands is relatively low. For example, its buckets and attachments may all be manufactured according to the unique design of its own models, making it difficult to be universal with other brands. However, for some standard parts, such as some bolts, nuts, and washers, universal specifications may be adopted for easy procurement and replacement.
Dependence on Original Factory Supply: Due to its relatively poor general compatibility of components, when replacing components, in many cases, it is necessary to rely on the supply from the original factory. This means that if users need to replace a certain special component, it may not be easy to find a substitute in the market, and they can only purchase it from Yizhan's factory or its authorized dealers.
Good Availability of Common Vulnerable Parts: For some commonly used vulnerable parts, such as filters, tires, and bucket teeth, Yizhan usually has a certain inventory and supplies them through its sales and service network. Users can purchase these components through local dealers or by directly contacting the manufacturer, and they can generally obtain them within a relatively short period.
Long Supply Cycle for Special Components: For some uncommon special components, such as specific hydraulic components and electronic control modules, it may be more difficult to obtain them. These components may need to be specially ordered from the factory, and due to production and transportation reasons, the supply cycle may be relatively long. It may take several days or even weeks for the goods to arrive, which may have a certain impact on the maintenance and use of users' equipment.
