PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
INTRODUCTION
This section will help you keep your Kenworth in good running condition.
There are a number of checks you can do, and you may be able to do
some of the service work yourself. Let your authorised Kenworth dealer do
any work you do not have the tools or skill to perform. Authorised service
technicians are trained in the proper technical and safety procedures to
maintain your Kenworth correctly.
Good driving practices, daily and weekly driver maintenance inspections,
and periodic service inspections by an authorised Kenworth dealer, will
help keep your Kenworth in good working order and provide many years
of dependable service.
It is dangerous to work on a vehicle without the proper training and
proper tools. People could be seriously injured, damage can be
done to the vehicle, or your vehicle could become unsafe to drive.
Perform only work you know you are fully able to do, and for which
you have the right tools.
