Manual Pretrip Inspection
(Before Starting the Unit)
Pretrip inspections are an important part of a preventative
maintenance program designed to minimize operating
problems and breakdowns. Perform this pre-trip inspection
before every trip involving refrigerated cargo.
NOTE: Pretrip inspections are not intended to take the place
of regular maintenance inspections.
Fuel:
Make sure the diesel fuel supply is adequate to
guarantee engine operation to the next check point. Allow for
maximum fuel consumption of one gallon per hour of engine
operation.
Engine Oil:
Check the engine oil level. It should be at the
Full mark when the dipstick is threaded all the way into the oil
pan. Do not overfill.
Engine Coolant:
Check the engine coolant level. The engine
coolant must have antifreeze protection to –30 F (–34 C).
Maintain a minumum of 50% Ethylene Glycol based coolant
and 50% water mixture. Do not mix solution any stronger than
68% Ethylene Glycol based coolant and 32% water for use in
extreme temperatures.
The engine is designed to operate on Ethylene Glycol based
coolant. This is the only recommended coolant type. Failure to
use the proper antifreeze mixture could cause plugging or
engine overheating. Do not mix brands, use water alone or mix
rust inhibitors.
Do not overfill the coolant.
CAUTION: Turn the engine off before checking the
engine oil level.
WARNING: Do not remove the expansion tank cap
while the coolant is hot.
