At a farm in Wisconsin. Farm is big, but looks like it only houses large equipment.

    possible maintenance on various large equipment?

    You drive them into and then onto those pillow shapeed humps, giving you acees to their under carriage?

    Oil changes, transmission work, etc…

    You can’t exact floor jack up a combine…

    Pure speculation…

      Maintenance on most large farm equipment is performed from the side. In a pinch, the undercarriage is also usually several feet off the ground at rest because it needs significantly more ground clearance than a road vehicle.

      As for changing tires and such, actually you do floor jack up a combine. It’s just a really beefy hydraulic jack.

      A very small area for that and there would need to be an entrance or exit. The stairs look like they are in the way.
