• Maintenance and Repairs: Perform preventative maintenance, troubleshooting, and diagnostics on a variety of diesel-powered equipment, including heavy machinery, trucks, and smaller tools. This includes tasks like changing oil and filters, inspecting hydraulic systems, and addressing any mechanical issues.
• Outdoor Work: As a field service mechanic, you'll work primarily outdoors, often in less-than-ideal weather conditions. This may include working in the rain, snow, or extreme heat. Be prepared to adapt to the elements while maintaining safety standards.
• Safety Sensitivity: This position is safety-sensitive, meaning that the mechanic's job directly affects the safety of the equipment and those who operate it. Strict adherence to safety protocols and guidelines is crucial.
• Physical Demands: The job can be physically demanding, as it involves lifting heavy equipment parts, crawling under machinery, and standing for extended periods. Good physical fitness and stamina are important.
• Troubleshooting and Diagnostics: You'll need strong problem-solving skills to identify issues with equipment, conduct thorough diagnostics, and determine the appropriate repair procedures.
• Valid Driver's License: A valid driver's license is required because you will need to travel to job sites and transport equipment to and from the service location.
