84 Heavy-Duty Service Schedule for VHD-Series
General and Check-Chart
Heavy-Duty Service is defined here for vehicles that typically travel an annual
distance of maximum 65,000 miles (105,000 km) per year or less and operate
under Heavy-Duty conditions. This include applications that travel primarily
on freeways with some or frequent stop-and-go driving. Typical applications
include: local transport with occasional freeway travel and a majority of stop-
and-go driving.
Vehicles may be equipped with liftable auxiliary axle(s) less than 14,000 lb
(6 metric tons) each. Typically, GVWR is less than 80,000 lb (36 metric tons)
or GCWR less than 143,000 lb (50 metric tons) or GAWR less than
46,000 lb (21 metric tons).
The service categories show maximum allowable intervals. It is very important
to tailor the service to the actual application. Adjust the recommended service
intervals to your operation.
For example, if the vehicle is used off-road, driving through deep, stand-
ing water, the lubrication schedule should be changed to lubricate
exposed lubrication points as often as every day.
