Long Haul (over-the-road transport) is for vehicles that annually travel more than 100,000 kilometers (60,000 miles), with
minimal city or stop-and-go operation. Examples of Long-Haul usage are: regional delivery that is mostly freeway miles;
interstate transport; or any road operation with high annual mileage.
Operating Hours vs. Fuel Consumption (Oil Drain Interval Only)
Operating hours vs. fuel consumption is for operators who want an oil drain interval based on hours of operation instead of
miles traveled.
Maintenance Schedule and Interval Operations
The three different schedules of vehicle usage (severe, short haul, and long haul) are listed. Refer to section "MBE 900
EuroV Preventive Maintenance Tables - 93K222(CK-4) and 93K218(CJ-4)". For each schedule, the appropriate distance
interval (in miles and kilometers) is given for performing and repeating each maintenance operation.
The descriptions of all maintenance operations, indicating all maintenance operation sets at which each operation must be
performed are listed; Refer to section "MBE 900 EuroV Preventive Maintenance Tables - 93K222(CK-4) and 93K218(CJ-4)"
Maintenance Intervals
The three maintenance interval tables show which maintenance operation must be performed at the actual distances (in miles
or kilometers) for each maintenance operation (M1-M3). The schedule of actual distances is based on the intervals listed,
Refer to section "MBE 900 EuroV Preventive Maintenance Tables - 93K222(CK-4) and 93K218(CJ-4)".
The maintenance interval tables are:
• Maintenance Interval Table, Severe Service, Refer to section "MBE 900 EuroV Preventive Maintenance Tables -
93K222(CK-4) and 93K218(CJ-4)"
• Maintenance Interval Table, Short Haul, Refer to section "MBE 900 EuroV Preventive Maintenance Tables -
93K222(CK-4) and 93K218(CJ-4)"
• Maintenance Interval Table, Long Haul, Refer to section "MBE 900 EuroV Preventive Maintenance Tables -
93K222(CK-4) and 93K218(CJ-4)"
14.3 Schedule Use
Before placing your new vehicle in service, determine the correct maintenance intervals that apply to your intended use of the
vehicle. Refer to the Maintenance Schedule Table to determine the distance interval at which each maintenance operation
must be performed to comply with your vehicle's schedule. A detailed description of maintenance operations can be found
later in this section
When the vehicle reaches the actual distance given for an interval, refer to the Maintenance Interval Tables to find the
Maintenance Operation Set that applies to that interval. Then perform the maintenance operations listed in the applicable
Maintenance Interval Operation Table.
Complete each Maintenance Operation Set at the required interval. For example, when you have completed Maintenance
Operation Set M3 under the 16th maintenance number listed in the Maintenance Interval Table, repeat the pattern. For the
17th maintenance, do Maintenance Operation Set M1, under the first maintenance number listed in the Maintenance Interval
Table.
Note: For Severe Service, the pattern repeats after 15 maintenance numbers, not 16 (as for Short Haul and Long Haul).
14.4 Required Maintenance Operations
The following sections describe the required maintenance operations listed in Table "Required Maintenance Operations Sets,
Schedule I" and "Required Maintenance Operations Sets, Schedule II and III".
Inspect the engine as follows:
• Visually check the engine for signs of leakage. A slight dampness at the sealing points is no cause for alarm.
NOTE:
More severe leaks, combined with a continual loss of oil, must be corrected without delay.
