Daily pre-start checks · kilometre-based service schedule · warning actions · fluids and lubricants.
Complete before the first trip with the engine stopped unless a check requires it to run.
Park level, stop the engine for a few minutes and check the dipstick.
Act if: oil is low, milky, foaming or smells of diesel. Top up correctly or stop and report.
When cold, check the recovery tank or radiator sight glass. Never open a hot cap.
Act if: low, top up with a 60:40 clean-water and ethylene-glycol mixture. Allow a hot system to cool first.
Inspect beneath the engine, hoses, radiator, gearbox, rear axle and steering for fresh drips.
Act if: any active leak is found. Keep the vehicle out of service until repaired.
Switch on the ignition and observe the water-in-fuel indicator.
Act if: the indicator remains on. Drain sediment from the separator before starting.
Check the gauge and refill the 380 L tank with clean diesel at shift end to limit condensation.
Act if: fuel is low. Refuel before the next trip and never run the tank dry.
Check the instrument cluster for the air-filter clogging indicator.
Act if: shown, replace the primary air-filter element. Do not clean the element.
Drain oil-condensate water from every air tank.
Act if: discharge is excessive or oily. Have the air dryer inspected.
Check leaks, switches, gauges and pressure build-up for service, exhaust and parking brakes.
Act if: a leak, slow pressure build-up or malfunction is found. Do not drive.
Inspect all 10 tyres for damage and check cold pressure with a gauge.
Act if: a bulge, cut or embedded object is found. Repair or replace before travel.
Check coupler operation, mounting and slider plates, king pin and bolt tightness before coupling.
Act if: loose, cracked or unable to lock and release correctly. Do not couple a trailer.
Verify all lights, switches, gauges, blinkers and warning lamps at start-up.
Act if: a warning stays on or a light or gauge fails. Resolve it before departure.
Before a long trip, inspect oil, fuel, coolant, exhaust and pneumatic lines throughout the vehicle.
Act if: any leak is present. Keep the vehicle out of service until repaired.
Check the washer tank and top up as required.
Act if: empty, refill before travel in dusty or wet conditions.
After every wash, check ABS wheel sensors and electrical connectors for cleanliness and secure fitment.
Act if: loose or corroded, clean and secure the connection before driving.
Use the kilometre or day limit, whichever occurs first.
