Duties and description

• e job duties requested are only performed during the winter months when equipment is removed from
• field operation and is no longer in use. During this off-season period, the primary responsibilities center
• around the winterization, inspection, maintenance, and repair of all farm equipment and vehicles to
• ensure their longevity and readiness for the next operational season. Winterization duties include
• draining fluids such as fuel, oil, and coolant; adding fuel stabilizers; disconnecting or removing batteries;
• lubricating moving parts; sealing engine and cab openings to prevent rodent infestation; applying
• protective coatings to exposed metal surfaces to guard against corrosion; and conducting a general
• assessment to prepare equipment for long-term storage. In addition to winterization, the position requires
• post-and preseason inspections of all vehicles and machinery to evaluate wear and tear and identify any
• mechanical issues. The role involves dismantling defective machines; reassembling machines and
• components; and testing the operation of critical systems such as hydraulics, drivetrains, and electrical
• components. Tasks include testing and replacing electrical wiring and parts using test meters, soldering
• tools, and hand tools; replacing or repairing defective or worn parts; fabricating new metal parts when
• necessary; and patching or replacing bent or torn sheet metal. Additional responsibilities include cleaning
• equipment, parts, and tools; installing replacement parts; testing electrical circuits for safety and function;
• applying paint or protective coatings; inspecting equipment for structural defects or wear; and repairing or
• replacing mechanical and structural components. During periods of snow accumulation, the position
• includes snow removal responsibilities. This involves operating snow removal equipment to clear snow
• from driveways, access roads, and equipment paths. Sand or salt may be applied to maintain safe
• walking and driving conditions around work zones. Timely snow removal is essential to prevent
• disruption in daily operations. Daily duties may vary. The employer reserves the right to increase
• workers' pay or provide bonuses based on tenure, performance, or other factors that are solely based on
• the discretion of the employer.
