Health and safety using farm vehicles and machinery
Maintaining vehicles and equipment
You must make sure that all your equipment is properly maintained and in good working order. You’ll need to perform regular maintenance checks on all of your vehicles and machinery.
You can find useful equipment maintenance checklists on the British Agricultural and Garden Machinery Association website.
The Department for Transport also provides guidance on performing health checks on farm vehicles.
You can find information on the safe use of agricultural machinery on the Health and Safety Executive website.
