2.1 Overview
Only by performing regular vehicle maintenance
and repair, can ensure the continuous and
reliable use of the truck.
Only specially trained and qualified personnel
are capable of maintenance and repair
operations of the equipment. If you want to
perform the maintenance and repair on your
own, it is recommended that on-site training
should be conducted to your maintenance
personnel by the service representative of the
vendor.
When lifting load components or during the
operations under the cabin, sufficiently strong
chains or safety device must be used to secure
the vehicle.
Truck must be parked on the level ground
reserved for maintenance (such area needs
to be clean and with less dust), block the
wheels with wooden wedges, disconnect
the key switch and disconnect the battery
connections.
When lifting the truck, the lifting tools can
only be installed on the fixed positions as
specied.
When jacking up the truck, appropriate tools,
such as wedge blocks, wooden blocks, and
so on, must be used to secure the truck to pr-
event the occurrence of accidental rolling or
tipping over.
Without the supplier's consent, it is strictly
forbidden to make modications to truck, espe-
cially to the safety devices. It is strictly forbidden
to change the various working speeds of the
truck.
Under harsh working conditions: such as, the
external temperature is too high or too low,
dusty, or implementing multiple shifts per day,
the maintenance and care interval should be
shortened.
Prior to lubrications, replacement of lters or
operating the hydraulic system, please clean
the external parts carefully and use a clean
container.
Only compliant lubricants can be used See
Table 2.2 Lubricants.
