Maintenance
Supporting Your Vehicle for Service
WARNING
To prevent personal injury and / or death, or
damage to property, always use floor stands
to support the vehicle before working under it.
Using only a jack could allow the vehicle to fall.
When performing service repairs on a vehicle, first:
1. Park vehicle on level concrete floor.
2. Set parking brake and install wheel chocks to prevent
vehicle from moving.
3. Select jack with a rated capacity sufficient to lift and hold
up the vehicle.
4. Raise vehicle with jack applied to axle(s). DO NOT use
bumper as a lifting point .
5. Support vehicle with floor stands under axle(s).
If axle or suspension components are to be serviced, support
vehicle with floor stands under frame side members.
Pre-Trip and Post-Trip Inspections
Pre-trip inspections should be performed each day by the
operator before operating this vehicle. In many circumstances,
a post-trip inspection can be even more valuable since it may
reveal problems in time for service work to be performed prior
to the next trip. This can help to minimize unwelcome surprises
and unscheduled downtime. A convenient checklist of items to
include in a pre / post trip Inspection are identified in Section
2 – Vehicle Inspection Guide as well as Commercial Driver’s
License (CDL) Manuals.
Chassis Lubrication
New vehicles are lubricated at the factory. After the vehicle
is placed in operation, regular lubrication and maintenance
intervals, based on the type of service and road conditions,
should be established.
The loads carried, speed, road and
weather conditions all contribute to the frequency of lubrication
intervals. Thorough lubrication and maintenance at the specified
intervals will insure Outstanding Life Cycle Value and will reduce
overall operating expense.
In some types of operation, and where operating conditions
are extremely severe (such as in deep water, mud or unusually
dusty conditions), the vehicle may require relubrication after
every twenty-four (24) hours of operation.
Only lubricants of superior quality, such as Fleetrite
®
lubricants,
should be used. The use of inferior products will reduce the
service life of the vehicle or result in failure of its components.
IC Bus recommends the use of Fleetrite
® lubricants and IC Bus ®
and Navistar ® Engine original equipment parts.
The lubrication intervals specified should be performed at
whatever interval occurs first, whether it is kilometers (miles),
hours, or months.
Refer to the Lubrication and Maintenance Intervals Chart in
the Maintenance and Intervals section for further details.
