Preventative maintenance is a planned schedule, that consists of different services that need to be performed at a certain period of time in order to prevent frequent failures and breakdowns. The main goal of preventative maintenance is to prevent the failure of equipment before it really happens. It's designed to enhance and preserve the reliability of equipment by replacing worn components before they actually fail.
Some preventative maintenance services include, but is not limited to:
- Oil changes
- Partial or complete overhauls

- Equipment checks and more.
Modern technological advances in tools and equipment for diagnosis and inspection, also contribute to even more of an accurate equipment maintenance. The ideal preventative maintenance program would prevent all equipment failure before it happens.
