Operating Instructions
Pretrip Inspection
The pretrip inspection is an important part of the
preventive maintenance program. It’s designed to
head off operating problems and breakdowns
before they happen.The Pretrip Inspection is not a
substitute for a regularly scheduled maintenance.
Visual Inspection
The following inspections should be made before
loading the container or trailer:
Fuel:
The diesel fuel supply must be sufficient to
guarantee engine operation to the next check
point.
Engine Oil:
Engine oil level should be at the
FULL mark. Never overfill. The dipstick is
attached to the filler cap.
Coolant:
Engine coolant must be above the ADD
mark with antifreeze protection of -34 C (-30 F).
Check and add coolant in the expansion tank.
Battery:
Terminals must be clean. Electrolyte
should be at the full mark.
Belt:
The water pump belt must be in good
condition and adjusted to proper tension.
Electrical:
Electrical connections should be
securely fastened. Check wires and terminals for
corrosion, cracks or moisture. Repair or replace if
necessary.
Structural:
Visually inspect the unit for leaks,
loose or broken parts and other damage. The
radiator coil should be clean and free of debris.
Clean if necessary. Use an air or water spray jet
directed against the coil from the air discharge
side.
Mounting Bolts:
Check the mounting bolts on the
unit and engine. Tighten if necessary.
WARNING: DO NOT remove the radiator
cap from the radiator fill neck when the
engine coolant is hot.
CAUTION: With both Extended Life
Coolant (EMI 3000) and Conventional
Coolant (non-EMI 3000) equipped units
operating in the field, there are several
important rules to remember:
• Extended Life Coolant (ELC) is RED in
color while conventional coolant is
GREEN or BLUE-GREEN.
• Do not add GREEN or BLUE-GREEN,
conventional coolant to cooling systems
using RED, Extended Life Coolant, except
in an emergency. If conventional coolant
is added to Extended Life Coolant, the
coolant must be changed after 2 years
instead of 5 years.
CAUTION: Air or water spray jet pressure
should not be high enough to damage
(bend) coil fins.
