Introduction, Maintenance
The schedules of maintenance and lubrication given in this
section of the Service Manual cover up to one year’s
operation of a truck.
These schedules are based on hourly usage and can be
adapted to suit most normal one shift patterns. The following
hourly usage figures have been used when calculating the
schedule:
Single shift- 8 am-5 pm, 25 hours per week usage
Double shift- 6 am-2 pm, 2 pm-10 pm, 50 hours per 
week usage
Triple shift- 6 am-2 pm, 2 pm-10 pm, 10 pm-6 am, 75 
hours per week usage
The schedules are intended only as a guide, not as a rigid
structure. Operators of trucks may wish to adapt them to local
requirements; but it is emphasized that the schedules
represent minimum manufacturer requirements, and all items
should be included in a service program to ensure minimum
downtime and a high safety status of the equipment.
- Use only spare parts approved by 
BT
.
- Always clean the equipment and carry out a full safety 
check after service.
