TIRE INSPECTION

Tire condition should be inspected per the Periodic Ser-
vice Schedule (Ref. Fig. 15 on page 14). Inflation pres-
sures should be checked when the tires are cool. Be sure
to install the valve dust cap after checking or inflating.
BRAKES
To reduce the possibility of severe injury or
death, always evaluate pedal travel before
operating a vehicle to verify some braking func-
tion is present.
All driving brake tests must be done in a safe
location with regard for the safety of all person-
nel.
Over time, a subtle loss of performance may take place; there-
fore, it is important to establish the standard with a new vehicle.
The Periodic Brake Performance Test should be per-
formed regularly (Ref. Fig. 15 on page 14) as an evalua-

Check for unusual tire wear, align if required
Check for bent/binding linkage rod
Check for damage or wear to latch arm or catch bracket
Lubricate as required, use light oil. DO NOT LUBRICATE CABLES OR BRAKE LATCH
Check for oil leakage, loose mounting hardware
Clean auxiliary contact (see BATTERY CHARGER MAINTENANCE)
Check for loose or missing hardware and components
Tighten or replace missing hardware
(includes items listed in previous tables & the following)
Check for wear and smooth movement (lubricate shaft with light oil if required)
Check for excessive play and tightness of retaining nuts
Check bellows and pinion seal for damage or grease leakage
Lubricate, use wheel bearing grease
Check for unusual noise and loose or missing mounting hardware
(includes items listed in previous tables & the following)
Check and adjust as required, see Technician's Repair and Service Manual
Check lubricant, add lubricant (SAE 30 oil) as required

tion of braking system performance. It is useful as a
method of identifying subtle loss of performance over
time.
Periodic Brake Test for Mechanical Brakes
The purpose of this test is to compare the braking perfor-
mance of the vehicle to the braking performance of new
or 'known to be good' vehicles or to an established
acceptable stopping distance. Actual stopping distances
will be influenced by weather conditions, terrain, road
surface condition, actual vehicle weight (accessories
installed) and vehicle speed. No specific braking dis-
tance can be reliably specified. The test is conducted by
latching the parking brake to eliminate different pedal
pressures and to include the affects of linkage mis-
adjustment.
Establish the acceptable stopping distance by testing a
new or 'known to be good' vehicle and recording the
stopping location or stopping distance. For fleets of vehi-
cles, several vehicles should be tested when new and
the range of stopping locations or distances recorded.
