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 pretrip 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:
The engine coolant must have antifreeze
protection to -30 F (-34 C). Add coolant if Alarm Code 37 is
active. Check and add coolant to the expansion tank.
Battery:
Make sure the battery terminals are tight and free of
corrosion.
Belts:
Make sure belts are in good condition and adjusted to
the proper tension. For more information about belt tension,
see the Specifications chapter.
Electrical:
Check the electrical connections to make sure they
are securely fastened. Wires and terminals should be free of
corrosion, cracks, and moisture.
Structural:
Visually inspect the unit for leaks, loose or
broken parts, and other damage.
CAUTION: Turn the engine off before checking the
engine oil level.
WARNING: Do not remove the expansion tank cap
while the coolant is hot.
