Grammer Tractor Driver Seats - A Helpful Repair and Servicing Checklist
Two key factors matter when farmers are in their vehicles: safety and comfort. As tractor driver seats have become more advanced, extra features make working life easier for farmers spending long hours at the wheel. More features and controls, however, mean more parts in the seat that can go wrong or need replacement. Yet, many farmers will put their work before their own safety and comfort, delaying tractor seat maintenance. This can have serious, negative consequences for drivers. It's wise to remind vehicle owners about the risks to their safety and both short- and long-term health if seats aren't checked and repaired regularly. Fortunately, leading vehicle seat manufacturer Grammer has teamed up with Kramp to create a useful seat checklist for you and your customers to use when repairing and servicing driver seats for tractors and other agricultural or commercial vehicles.
Nearly 70 years ago, Grammer started making tractor seat cushions. Since then, the company has designed and built seats for every commercial vehicle you can think of. You'll find Grammer driver seats on all kinds of agricultural, grasscare, and construction vehicles. The company’s creative designs and innovative technology emphasize the importance of ergonomics, comfort, and functionality, reducing the risk of neck or back injury for drivers at work.
Your customer’s driver seat is not an afterthought.
Rating Plate – What It Says and Where to Find It
It all begins with identifying your seat, an easy task if you know where to look. You’ll find all this information on the rating plate located at the front middle of the lower section at the suspension and on the back of the seat frame.
The rating plate includes this information (example):
| (A) DESIGNATION | = | MSG95A (L) |
| (B) INVENTORY NO. | = | 140 534 |
| (C) YEAR/CW/ASSEMBLY | = | 0422 031 |
| - year of manufacture | = | 04 (2004) |
| - built in week | = | 22 (May) |
| - assembly | = | 031 |
| (D) ORDER NO. | = | DE 42844300080 |
