What Do We Mean By DIY Repair? Thumbnail image

Here at Minnesota Equipment, we offer maintenance services to extend the life of your equipment, but we also want you to feel empowered to tackle repairs on your own. This knowledge is what we call DIY repair.

DIY Repair: The Basics

DIY repair involves a hands-on approach to maintaining and fixing your machinery without relying solely on a professional service. Whether you work with agriculture, turf or engine equipment, understanding the ins and outs of your machinery can save you time and money. Here’s what you can find in our arsenal of DIY resources:

Operator’s and Installation Manuals

Every piece of equipment comes with an operator’s manual that outlines how to use and maintain it properly. These manuals are your best friends when troubleshooting common issues or performing routine maintenance. Our Manuals & Training database features online training, simulators and quick reference guides.

Customer Service Advisor

Our Customer Service Advisor™ is a digital treasure trove. It’s a database of operator, diagnostic and technical manuals for John Deere products. Users can connect to machines through an Electronic Data Link (EDL) for cleaning codes, diagnostic readings and perform limited calibrations. It’s best for businesses that handle their own repairs and is available through a paid annual subscription.
