Foreword When performed on a regular basis, lubricating the parts of your vehicle is the least costly way of obtaining safe and reliable vehicle operation. Added benefits and savings occur when you check that the engine, undercarriage, and noise emission control parts are in good working order during lubrication. This maintenance manual explains when you should lubricate parts and what to look for when checking for wear or damage. For daily and weekly checks, refer to the vehicle driver’s manual.
