    • Coolant Levels: Proper coolant levels are necessitated to make sure that the engine stays cool under pressure and doesn't overheat when thrown a tough exercise.

    • Fluid Levels: Seamless shifting gears and the keystone of effective power transmission both rely on the delicate balance maintained through regular servicing and checking of the transmission and differential fluid levels. When it all comes down to it, it's about keeping those wheels of progress rolling.

    • Component Inspection: All too often, a glance at your brake pads, discs, shocks, and springs provides a firm building block toward safety and performance in your tipper truck.

  2. Exterior Care:

    • Washing Your Truck: Washing your truck is not for looks. It is done to protect the investment you have in your vehicle. Regular washing prevents corrosion and keeps it looking as good as it did on the day it was driven off the hi-line.

    • Protection From Rust: Rust and undercoating applied to your tipper truck is like armor. It takes the exposed condition and protects your truck from some of the harshest environments to lengthen its life.

    • Rotation: The rotation of tires every 10,000-15,000 kilometers makes them wear out uniformly, just like the rotation amongst team members for workload sharing to have long life and efficiency.

    • Alignment: Correct alignment offers the best handling, this keeps your tipper on course and ensures you avoid unnecessary wear and tear on the tires.

  4. Electrical System:

    • Battery Maintenance: A well-maintained battery leads to a tipper truck that is always keyed-up, a properly charged phone in motion, remaining on the move.

    • Lights and Indicators: Properly working lights are crucial to driving with poor visibility. Working lights mean safety for the driver, so it's best to check regularly if everything is working to a T, something like a double-check with details that are necessary for a big presentation.

Driving Habits and Load Management

Actually, it is your driving habits that can really go a long way to give life and service to your Eicher tipper. Driving smoothly without a crazy push on the pedal or trying to overtake a vehicle at great speed helps reduce wear and tear, as well as pacing, running a marathon to finish a line without breaking out.

Second is load management. Just like balancing your workload so you don't get overwhelmed. Avoiding overload will lead your vehicle into performing optimally without undue stress.
