Pre-Operating Checks

Check the following items each time you begin using the
vehicle for the day:
• Check the tire pressure.
• Check the brake pedal operation.
• Check to see that the lights are working.
• Turn the steering wheel to the left and right to check
steering response.
• Check for loose parts and any other noticeable
malfunctions. Make sure the vehicle is off and all
moving parts have stopped before checking for loose
parts and other malfunctions.
If any of the above items are not correct, notify your
mechanic or check with your supervisor before taking the
vehicle out for the day. Your supervisor may want you to
check other items on a daily basis, so ask what your
responsibilities are.
