a.

Cleanliness.

Dirt, grease, oil, and debris only get in the way and may cover up a serious problem.

Use solvent cleaning

compound on metal surfaces and soapy water on rubber.

b.

Bolts, Nuts, and Screws.

Check bolts, nuts, and screws for obvious looseness, missing, bent, or broken condition and tighten or replace as

necessary.

If they cannot be checked with a tool, look for chipped paint, bare metal, or rust around bolt heads.

c.

Welds.

Look for loose or chipped paint, rust, or gaps where parts are welded together.

If a cracked weld is found, notify the

supervisor.

d.

Electrical Wires and Connectors.

Look for cracked or broken insulation, exposed wires, and loose or broken connectors.

Tighten loose connectors

and ensure that wires are in good shape.

e.

Fluid Hoses, Tubes, and Fittings.

Look for wear, damage, or leaks.

Ensure clamps and fittings are tight.

Wet spots show leaks, but a stain around a

fitting or connector may also indicate a leak.

If connector or fitting is loose, tighten it.

If hoses, tubes, or fittings are

broken or worn out, repair or replace per applicable procedure.

f.

Air System Components.

Look for worn, damaged, or leaking components.

Ensure clamps and fittings are tight.

If a leak comes from a

loose fitting or connector, tighten it.

If component is damaged or worn out, repair or replace per applicable

procedure.

g.

Damage.

Damage is defined as any condition that affects safety or would make the truck unserviceable for mission

requirements.
