DAILY/MONTHLY/YEARLY MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES AND INSPECTION
All kinds of maintenance work are subdivided into two groups: operating (preventive) and compulsory
(scheduled). The need for operating maintenance is determined based on the results of checking the
equipment.
General:
• Maintenance work must be carried out regularly to ensure safe and malfunction-free
operations;
• Maintenance work does not require any special tools. The user can perform most of the
operations;
• Use correct tools;
• Attempt to localize the defects as precisely as possible; you should try to avoid opening the
system unnecessarily;
• Keep disassembled parts and repair area free from dirt;
• Keep spare parts in their packages until needed for installation;
• Valve adjustments and repairs are recommended to be handled by trained service personnel.
Daily inspections:
• Examine the trailer visually. Note defects and failures that might aect safety. Repair possible
defects and failures. Look extra carefully at the position of the Towing eyelet;
• Check so there is no leakages from the hydraulic system, or damaged hoses;
• Work through every function to its extreme position;
• Check the tires and brakes;
• Check that all bolts, nuts and hoses are connected tightly;
• Check the oil level if trailer is equipped with pump and oil tank set;
• The towing eyelet must be controlled for excessive wear and tear every time before the
trailer is used. The towing eyelet needs to be changed at least once a year under normal
operation conditions. It is up to the user of the trailer to ensure that this is done.
