Tire Maintenance and Rotation.
Proper tire care is fundamental for truck safety and efficiency. Regular inspection of tire pressure, adjusting it according to manufacturer recommendations, is crucial to avoid irregular wear, excessive fuel consumption, and performance loss. Additionally, periodic tire rotation helps distribute wear, extending tire lifespan and preventing traction, fuel efficiency, and braking issues.
Truck owners should monitor the overall tire condition, identifying potential damage. Proactively replacing tires when necessary prevents punctures and ensures stability on the road.
Fluid Level Inspection.
