Maintenance
WARNING
To prevent property damage, personal injury, and
/ or death, park vehicle on hard flat surface, turn
the engine off, set the parking brake, and install
wheel chocks to prevent the vehicle from moving
in either direction.
WARNING
To prevent property damage, personal injury,
and / or death, whenever disconnecting battery
terminals, always disconnect ground terminal
first. When reconnecting, always connect ground
terminal last.
Failure to follow this procedure
could also result in a short to ground.
Supporting Your Vehicle for Service
WARNING
To prevent property damage, personal injury, and
/ or death, always use floor stands to support the
vehicle before working under it. Using only a jack
could allow the vehicle to fall.
When performing service repairs on a vehicle:
1.
Park vehicle on level concrete floor.
2.
Set parking brake and / or install wheel chocks to
prevent vehicle from moving.
3.
Select jack with a rated capacity sufficient to lift and hold
up the vehicle.
4.
Raise vehicle with jack applied to axle(s). (DO NOT use
bumper as a lifting point.)
5.
Support vehicle with floor stands under axle(s).
If axle or suspension components are to be serviced, support
vehicle with floor stands under frame side members.
Pre-Trip and Post-Trip Inspections
Pre-Trip inspections should be performed each day by the
operator before operating this vehicle. In many circumstances,
a Post-Trip inspection can be even more valuable since it may
reveal problems in time for service work to be performed prior
to the next trip. This can help to minimize unwelcome surprises
and unscheduled downtime. A convenient checklist of items to
include in a Pre / Post Trip Inspection are identified in Section
2 – Vehicle Inspection Guide as well as Commercial Driver’s
License (CDL) Manuals.
Chassis Lubrication
New vehicles are lubricated at the factory. After the vehicle
is placed in operation, regular lubrication and maintenance
intervals, based on the type of service and road conditions,
should be established.
The loads carried, speed, road and
weather conditions all contribute to the frequency of lubrication
intervals. Thorough lubrication and maintenance at the specified
intervals will insure Outstanding Life Cycle Value and will reduce
overall operating expense.
