Practice Preventive Winter Mantenance
With the busy season behind us, January is a great time to slow down and prep your rig for the rest of the season. Follow these preventive maintenance tips to stay prepared and keep your ride in tip-top shape this season:
Check Your Batteries: Make sure your batteries are fully charged and clean of rust and debris. This will help extend your batteries’ life and help you identify potential problems more quickly.
Keep Your Lights Bright: With shorter days and darker nights, it’s important to make sure your external lights are working. Take a quick walk around before each trip to check for outages and broken bulbs.
Keep Safety Equipment on Hand: Winter driving can mean hazardous conditions, so it’s more important than ever to keep a fully stocked set of safety equipment in your cab. Flares, a fire extinguisher, reflective tape, and basic first aid materials should all be part of your safety kit.
