Performing Pre-Trip Inspection - Hyundai TRANSLEAD Original Operator's Manual

Performing pre-trip inspection

For safe operation of the tractor and trailer, conduct a full pre-trip
inspection before every departure. Before starting the inspection,
make sure the tractor and trailer are parked safely away from
traffic on a level and firm ground. If necessary, block the trailer
wheels using chock blocks for safety during the inspection.
WARNING
Inspect, connect, or repair the tractor or the trailer carefully. The
tractor may move unexpectedly and cause serious injuries.
CAUTION
• Complete a full pre-trip inspection of the tractor, and then properly
couple it with the trailer. Inspect the trailer after the coupling.
• During the inspection, the parking brakes must be applied to
prevent the vehicle from moving unexpectedly.
• Visually inspect electrical wiring, brake components (including
brake hoses), and welds for any damage or distortion. If you find
any defects, report to the registered owner before starting your
trip.
• Always follow the vehicle manufacturer's manual when operating
the sliding suspension or any other part of the trailer.
• Do not operate the vehicle in a condition or manner likely to
cause an accident or breakdown.
• If any component is damaged or cannot function properly, do not
operate the trailer.
• Conduct another inspection if you cannot guarantee the safety.
