Service

P & B have built up their company on the back of an unrivalled reputation for their service.

Their technicians are highly trained having been through an apprenticeship (currently this is undertaken at Warwick College) for four years.  Following their completion of this apprenticeship, they attend manufacturers’ courses each year to maintain their product knowledge at the highest possible level.

Most technicians now carry their own laptop to improve their diagnostic capabilities in addition to many specific service tools. 

P & B have seen over recent years a move by their customers to more regular servicing, particularly of self-propelled machinery.  They are able to offer fixed prices for these services which can be paid for on a quarterly, annually or on demand basis.  Details can be obtained from your local P & B branch.

LOLER Inspections at P&B
P&B technicians are specially trained to carry out LOLER Inspections. As you are no doubt aware, this scheme sets out the minimum legal requirements, under the Management of Health & Safety at Work Regulations 1999, to ensure that all lifting operations are properly planned, that lifting equipment is used in a safe manner and that lifting machinery is THOROUGHLY EXAMINED at least every 12 months by an approved technician.

P&B are a member of BAGMA and have undertaken all the required training to carry out these thorough examinations and to complete the Certificate that the machine has met the regulations of PUWER and LOLER 1998, to satisfy insurance company requirements.

COMBINE & BALER WINTER SERVICING
Following the hard work of last season, a sound winter servicing programme is essential to protect your investment and to ensure a continuation of the reliable and efficient service, which you expect from your Massey Ferguson harvest equipment. Preventative maintenance is the best way to reduce deterioration of your machines during winter storage and to maintain the resale value.

Combine or Baler Checks
For a fixed price, we can offer you a comprehensive and professional post-season winter inspection of your Massey Ferguson harvest equipment. This inspection includes a detailed assessment covering all the key functional areas of your machine, and is backed up by a complete personalised report document recommending any service work required to put the machine in safe conditions for standing the winter. These inspections are undertaken with no obligation to yourself to proceed with the recommended work.

All work is carried out by Massey Ferguson trained Service Engineers with access to the latest equipment and training on your specific machine. This knowledge can guarantee that our inspections and service work are both quick and cost effective. Using only genuine MF replacement parts, and with 12 months warranty for parts and labour covering you right through the next harvest season, only we can offer you the assurance of our reputation of quality and professionalism in MF harvest equipment.

A timely post-season service will allow you to use the machine next harvest with the minimum pre-season attention. Work undertaken  will reduce the risk of costly and time-consuming downtime next harvest – preventing potential failures is always simpler, quicker and inexpensive. Remember, peak machine efficiency minimises crop loss.
