The routine maintenance schedule

Intervals of routine maintenance of the car offered in the present section are calculated on independent performance of all procedures by the owner of a vehicle. Duration of intervals was defined proceeding from a condition of daily operation of the car. Constantly to support a vehicle in peak the forms some of procedures at will of the owner can be carried out in more intensive mode. Composers of the present Management are assured that receptions from the power unit of the car and its other knots and systems of the maximum return can achieve only under condition of a conscientious attitude of the owner to care of the vehicle. It is not necessary to forget as well about maintenance of a trade dress of the car on a case of its resale.

At operation of the car in the conditions of strongly dusty district, frequent towage of the trailer or constant moving in an intense city cycle, intervals of performance of procedures of routine maintenance should be whenever possible reduced to a minimum.

Servicing of a new vehicle should be made in the conditions of a workshop of the service-centre of the trade mission of the company-manufacturer of the car in order to avoid infringement of factory guarantee certificates.

The general information

The given Chapter was made to help on purpose to the owner of the car to support the vehicle in a condition of the maximum readiness for operation, receiving from it effective return with observance of requirements to profitability and safety.

In the beginning of the Head the schedule of routine maintenance of the car is resulted. The sections devoted to a detailed statement of an order of performance by each of procedures of service separately are more low offered. Descriptions of visual checks, adjustments, procedures of removal and installation of components are included in a material of sections, and also a various good advice and recommendations. Resulted above an illustration with the image of kinds of an impellent compartment, suspension brackets and a steering will help the reader to understand with placing on the car of components subject to service.

Serving the car according to the kilometrazhno-time schedule, and following the detailed recommendations resulted more low, the reader will receive the accurate program of the actions, capable to provide long duration and reliability of service of its vehicle. Remember that the given program is made on a complex basis and performance of its only separate points with neglect others will not lead to desirable result.

In process of performance of service of the car the reader will soon be convinced that many procedures can, and should, to be united in the general groups in view of similarity of the nature or affinity of an arrangement of components. For example, if the car for any reason is lifted over the earth, it is necessary to take advantage of a case and at the same time to check up a condition of components of system of release of the fulfilled gases, a suspension bracket and a steering.

The first step in vehicle service always is self-preparation of the executor of works.
