In the world of heavy machinery, efficiency is key. Every minute your equipment is down means lost productivity, missed deadlines and reduced profit margins. Downtime is a primary issue, which is why we offer Self-Service Options (SSO)—an innovative solution designed to put the power of maintenance and repair directly into your hands. With these all-in-one kits, you can perform routine maintenance and basic repairs on your Cat® equipment easily and confidently.
Why Choose Cat Self-Service Options?
Business owners and equipment operators often embrace the do-it-yourself (DIY) approach for small repairs or equipment maintenance. The Self-Service Options program caters specifically to this mindset, offering convenient, cost-effective packages that include everything you need to keep your equipment running smoothly. Here’s why SSO stands out:
- Time-Saving Convenience
Downtime is inevitable for any machine, but the response to it can make all the difference. With SSO, you don’t have to wait for a service technician to arrive. Instead, you can order a comprehensive kit tailored to your specific equipment model and start your repairs immediately. - Comprehensive Packages
Each SSO kit includes:
- Genuine Cat parts
- Easy-to-follow service instructions
- Optional add-ons, like replacement parts and recommended tools
- Technical support for troubleshooting
- Cost-Effective Repairs
By performing routine maintenance and basic repairs yourself, you can save money while ensuring your equipment receives the high-quality care it deserves.
How Does the SSO Program Work?
Step 1: Simple Setup
Using the SSO program is straightforward. Simply visit our website, where you’ll find dedicated pages for each Cat machine model. This eliminates confusion and ensures you’re ordering the correct parts. Each page offers:
- Preventive maintenance options
- A category search for specific parts
- Popular parts for your machine
Step 2: Find Your Equipment
To get started, input your equipment’s model number into the search bar. If you have your serial number handy, you can save your equipment details for future reference. This makes reordering parts even faster the next time you need them.
Step 3: Customize Your Order
Once you’ve identified your machine, browse the available SSO kits. Each kit comes with detailed information, including:
- The required skill level
- Estimated repair time
- Repair-specific details
You’ll also be able to preview service instructions before purchasing, which ensures you’re fully prepared for the task ahead. After completing the order, the service instructions will be available as a downloadable PDF and stored in your order history for easy access.
Step 4: Receive Your Kit
Your custom SSO package will be shipped promptly to your specified address, so you can start repairs without delay. Optional tools and related parts will also be available during the checkout process, allowing you to stock up on everything you might need.
