Dump truck start and maintenance

First, dump truck maintenance
1 Insufficient air pressure will increase the friction between the tire and the ground. Therefore, check the tire pressure frequently. Different dump trucks and tires have different air pressure standards. In addition, if the tire wears heavily, slippage will occur and fuel consumption will increase. If necessary, replace the tire.
2. Some dump trucks will experience slight dragging, which is equivalent to loading the dump truck and increasing the load on the auto dump truck. This will increase fuel consumption, so check regularly.
3. Air filters, fuel filters, oil filters, etc. need to be replaced every 5,000 kilometers or more, because the air filter plugging will cause the gas volume to decrease, resulting in insufficient combustion of gasoline and reducing fuel efficiency. The wear of clutch plates and clutch pressure plates and the use of spark plugs for too long can also lead to increased fuel consumption. Therefore, they must be replaced regularly.
4. Statistics show that for each additional load of 1,000 grams, 1% fuel consumption will increase. Therefore, it is important to minimize the amount of unused spares in the trunk.

Second, start the dump truck
1. Dumping a garbage truck in a dump truck, slamming, and stepping on the gas pedal is a taboo for fuel conservation. The fuel-saving test shows that the accelerator pedal is two to three times more expensive than mid-speed driving. Therefore, under the premise of guaranteeing the normal running of the garbage dump truck, the extent of stepping on the accelerator should be appropriately reduced. When the red light comes on or when you enter or exit the expressway, you can push the brake on the dump truck to slow down. Use the remaining power of the engine to allow the dump truck to slide forward.
2 The engine runs cooler than the temperature increases, so do not immediately accelerate when starting, but should slow down for a few minutes to allow the engine to heat up before accelerating.
3. Choose the shift time as much as possible between 2500-3000 revolutions, so that it can obtain better economic performance under the premise of guaranteeing power supply. To stop the low speed and high speed, when driving the dump truck of the manual transmission, the high speed should be promptly replaced after the dump truck speed is stabilized; when driving the dump truck of the automatic transmission, the “sports” mode should be avoided as much as possible. .
4. The economic speed refers to the fuel-efficient driving speed. The economic speed of various dump trucks varies. Read the instructions for dump trucks carefully, but they will generally be around 70-90 km/h. Below or above this speed, fuel consumption will increase.
5. Whether the driving method is correct or not during the run-in period has great influence on the future fuel economy of the engine. Therefore, we must bear in mind that the speed does not exceed 80 kilometers, and the speed does not exceed 4,000 rpm. The main principles are the driving principles for the new unloading garbage trucks that cannot be moved during the run-in period. Remember to never break the ring.
