Maintenance
Maintaining your vehicle in good working order can
help prevent mechanical failures. It can also extend the
useful life of your vehicle and at the same time reduce
the operating costs associated with maintaining and
servicing. Moreover, a well-maintained truck is a
guarantee of security, reliability and efficiency.
Cleanliness
Cleanliness is part of safety.
As such:
Clean all vehicle lights, warning lights and safety
decals so that you and the vehicle’s surroundings
are safe at all times.
Clean the contact surface between the body and
the chassis. Labrie Enviroquip Group recommends
cleaning the chassis after every unloading.
Remove any stacked garbage from the hopper area
after each body unloading.
Make sure that the side step and/or hopper step (if
installed) are clean and free of any slippery
material.
Danger!
Always lock out and tag out the vehicle
when inspecting or performing
maintenance on the vehicle (see Locking
Out and Tagging Out the Vehicle on
page 20).
Danger!
Always use a stepladder to reach the
higher parts of the vehicle. Also, do not
climb on to the roof of the truck as it has
not been designed to be walked on.
Caution!
Keep the cab floor dry and clean to
prevent slipping and falling.
