General Review

Visual Inspection

Visually inspect the base frame (e.g. cross-chassis, trailer, etc.), engine com-

partment, manifolds and valves, and pump and gearbox assemblies. Many

problems can be spotted by a simple visual inspection; such as, oil and coolant

leaks, excessive water leaks, damaged tires, worn hoses, rust, cracks in welds,

missing or damaged reflectors or placards, etc.

However, dirt, grease, oil and debris can mask some problems. It is recom-

mended to regularly wash the unit to remove stubborn grease. A grease dis-

solving solvent may be required. Make sure the solvent is not harmful to

painted surfaces.
