OPERATION 103
PRE-TRIP INSPECTION AND DAILY MAINTENANCE
DANGER
Before working on or inspecting a vehicle, set the parking brakes, place the
transmission in neutral and block the wheels. Failure to do so can result in
unexpected vehicle movement and can cause serious personal injury or death.
Safety is the most important and obvious reason for doing a pre-trip inspection.
Federal and state laws require inspection performed by the driver. Federal
and state inspectors also inspect commercial vehicles. An unsafe vehicle can
be placed "out of service" until the driver or owner corrects the deficiency.
Owners and operators should familiarize themselves with sections 49 CFR
396.11 and 396.13 concerning Federal requirements for vehicle inspection.
Certain other laws may also apply.
Section 49 CFR 396.13 states that all motor carrier drivers must complete a
written report at the end of each work day for each vehicle operated, covering
most of what is covered in the pre-trip list. The report should list all defects
or deficiencies discovered by the driver. A pre-trip inspection prepares for
the end-of-work report.
Starting on the next page are suggested guidelines to be used in performing
truck, tractor and trailer pre-trip inspections. Depending on the application of
the vehicle being used, these guidelines should be modified to include other
necessary inspection points. For example, steps and grab handles should be
checked daily on refuse trucks because the operator is getting in and out
of the cab more frequently.
If any component or system does not pass this inspection, it must be corrected
before operating the vehicle. Whenever equipment requires adjustment,
replacement, repair or lubrication, refer to the Service Manuals or contact an
authorized Mack Truck Inc. dealer for the correct procedures, specifications
and intervals.
Take your time going through the pre-trip inspection. Remember that a careful
pre-trip inspection saves time by eliminating unscheduled stops for correcting
a faulty item.
