Nowadays, traffic accidents occur almost every day, especially in the transportation industry. The safe operation of semi-trailers is the top priority in the truck's life. If the habit of checking before driving is not developed, it will cause potential safety hazards during driving. To prevent potential problems before they occur, trailers should undergo routine inspections every week or before each transportation. Including small components such as tires, screws, outriggers, box hooks, box boards, sockets, etc. So, exactly how should it be done?
First, it is necessary to check whether the tires of the semi-trailer are leaking air, whether the tires are fully inflated, whether there are any adhering debris all over the tires, and observe whether the steel rims of the tires are deformed or cracked.
Often, details determine success or failure. When inspecting, pay attention to the handling of some details. Check each screw on the tire one by one to ensure they are tight. Don't go through the trouble first. If a screw loosens or falls off during driving, an accident will definitely occur, and it will be too late to regret then. Therefore, make sure to tighten every screw on the tire.
3. Shake the outriggers to check if there are any cracks in the very hungry areas. At the same time, shake the outriggers up and down several times to test. It is also necessary to check the tightness of the nuts and bolts to avoid the phenomenon of the tire being stuck.
4. Touch the box hooks, box panels, sockets and other small components with the same hand to check for any cracks, inspect the lights for any damage, start the semi-trailer to check if the air pressure gauge is normal, test if the brakes are working properly, and listen for any air leakage.
Life is fragile. A moment of carelessness or carelessness may lead to the end of one's life, bringing endless sorrow to one's family. We should cherish life and drive safely. After confirming that there are no safety issues, you can set off with peace of mind. Only when the inspection items are done more carefully and comprehensively can safety be guaranteed.
