General Instructions
00069
1.
To ensure a long operational life for the semitrailer, the following is presented to assist maintenance personnel.
This is not meant to supersede or replace current support operations or authorized publications.
2.
Worldwide operations present many environmental impacts on the semitrailer from salt water to ice/snow melt chemicals.
Areas of conflict have their own ways of ventilating and damaging the semitrailer. All these impacts add up to shortened
operational life.
Tips
00069
Keep the semitrailer clean, which will allow for more complete inspection of welds and components. Use low-pressure water,
detergent, and brushes for cleaning.
a.
Flush out undercarriages, suspensions, and wheel ends with clean low-pressure water if operating in a salt
environment, especially fording, as soon as the mission allows.
b.
Keep debris out of wheel ends and twistlock pockets.
