Maintenance
Corrosion Inspection
When inspecting the underside of the
Vehicle or Bodywork view all the
understructure which could hold
dirt/road salts. Also check damaged
surfaces for signs of bare metal.
Structural Inspection
Check the underside of the Bodywork
for signs of loose mechanical fixing,
cracks or weld failure of joints. On the
exterior and interior, check for bulges or
cracks on all joints and body structure
intersections. Seats should also be
checked for cracks in pedestals and for
security on mountings.
Part Attachments
Check the security of pipes, cables,
mudflaps, flooring, stepwells,
handpoles, plus parts screwed, bolted,
riveted or glued to the Bodywork.
Heating System
Check all pipe joints for signs of
weeping anti-freeze. Ensure gate
valves are capable of being turned on
and off and are not leaking.
Electrical
Inspect wiring for signs of chafing,
discolouration of joints or damage to
protective covers.
Exterior Joints & Glazing
Check the glazing perimeter for signs
of deterioration and possible water
leaks or failure of joint adhesion.
Paint Finish
Inspect the exterior surface for signs of
deterioration in the form of blisters,
scratching or minor damage, which if
not rectified will result in major
problems.
NOTE
It is important to act quickly in
rectifying defects, as
recommended in the Service
manual, since continued
running in a defective
condition could result in rapid
deterioration.
