TRUCK SERVICE MANUAL
LUBRICATION
LUBRICATION
FOR LUBRICATION INTERVALS REFER TO OPERATORS MANUAL
New vehicles are properly lubricated at the factory
and before they are delivered.
After the vehicle is placed
in operation, regular lubrication intervals, based on the
type of service and road conditions, should be
established.
Thorough lubrication at definite intervals will
add greatly to the service life of the vehicle and will
reduce the overall operating expense.
The interval between lubrication periods, oil
changes, etc., depends entirely upon operating
conditions.
The loads carried, speed, road and weather
conditions all contribute to the frequency of lubrication
periods.
In some types of operation, and where
operating conditions are extremely severe, the vehicle
may require lubrication after every twenty-four (24) hours
of operation.
In some operations, such as in deep water, mud, or
unusually dusty conditions, the interval of inspection and
lubrication should be more frequent.
Only lubricants of the best quality, having proper
body or viscosity, and supplied by reputable
manufacturers, should be used.
The use of inferior or
non-compatible products might reduce the service life of
the vehicle or result in failure of its components.
The International Harvester Company Truck Division
does not attempt to specify any particular manufacturer’s
product.
Highgrade lubricants can be obtained from any
reputable oil company.
The lubrication specifications refer only to the
viscosity (SAE) agd type to be applied.
The viscosity
numbers have been adopted by the Society of
Automotive Engineers to classify lubricants according to
"body" or "thickness" and do not cover any other
properties.
IMPORTANT
:
When adding lubricant, it should be
the same weight and viscosity which is already being
used.
For recommended lubrication intervals, refer to
Truck Operator’s Manual.
DESCRIPTION
