A-2 Foreword
General usage instructions for commercial vehicles
If you are a professional driver using your own vehicle, or a haulier entrusting one of your vehicles to a member of your staff, it is essential to follow and ensure the application of the following instructions. They are only a reminder of the basics of the trade and standard professional practice and in no way are to be taken as exhaustive. In this way you will obtain the maximum profit from your material and prevent any risk of accidents and incidents.
1.A few basic instructions
–Every driver must possess all necessary licences and should only drive when physically fit and sufficiently rested.
–The vehicle must be in conformity with current legislation in the country or countries in which it is used.
–Any signs indicating hazardous substances must be affixed and be in good condition.
–Loads:
•All-up or per-axle weights (regulatory or technical) must not be exceeded.
•Loading and securing of loads must be carried out using conventional procedures, tarpaulins and side curtains must be correctly stretched and fastened and doors and sideboards locked, etc...
–In the cab:
•Never carry dangerous products (such as petroleum, trichlorethylene, thinner, etc.).
•If an animal is carried, it must be kept away from the driving position.
–Getting in and out of the vehicle:
•Use the steps and the handles provided. Never jump down from the vehicle. When leaving the vehicle, observe the traffic flow, particularly if you have been driving for a long time.
•Take extra care when the climatic conditions are bad (rain, snow, ice) and at night.
–USE IN CLOSED PREMISES:
•NEVER LEAVE THE ENGINE RUNNING IN CLOSED OR POORLY VENTILATED PREMISES. THE EXHAUST GASES CONTAINED EXTREMELY TOXIC CONSTITUENTS. THEIR CONCENTRATION MAY HAVE VERY SERIOUS EFFECTS ON YOUR HEALTH.
A-3 Foreword
2.Before getting into the vehicle, check:
–General condition of your vehicle, visually (as per handbook);
–Tyre condition, tyre pressures (including the spare wheel), and that nothing is jammed between the twin wheels;
–Cleanliness of cab windows, rearview mirrors, headlights and other lights and number plates;
–Regulatory and optional lighting systems for correct operation;
–Semi-trailer and/or trailer for correct coupling (hook, brake hoses - colour coding - electrical connector...);
–For the presence and contents of the onboard tool kit;
–In winter, for the presence of anti-skid chains and that they are securely fastened;
–Vehicles equipped with side guard panels and beams should be permanently provided with this equipment. At the time of removal, make sure that the locks are correctly locked and tighten the setscrews moderately.
3.In the cab
–Check the condition of the non-slip foot pedal covers.
–Ensure that the safety controls (steering wheel, foot pedals, gear lever etc...) are never cleaned with a slippery product like silicone).
–Adjust your driving position:
•Steering wheel: check that the steering column is locked.
•Seat: check that the seat is firmly locked.
•Rearview mirrors.
•Seat belt: it is compulsory to wear one, so buckle up.
•Onboard children: comply with the laws in force.
–Before starting the engine: ensure that the gear lever is properly in neutral.
–Check that all instrument panel indications are normal (if you are not certain of what the nominal readings are supposed to be, refer to the Driving & Servicing Handbook.
Analogue tachograph
–Check that the tachograph chart is in place in the tachograph unit and that the unit is working properly.
Digital tachograph
–Check that the driver's tachograph chart 1 is in place in the tachograph tray.
If there is a 2nd driver, Check that his tachograph chart is in place in the tachograph tray 2.
Check that the tachograph unit is working properly.
A-4 Foreword
4.When driving
–If you detect any anomaly in the way the vehicle is operating, stop and locate the malfunction.
Do not move off again until you are sure that the incident has not impaired technical performance and safety.
–When driving, the use of some of the standard-fitted equipment, and other optional or added equipment is strictly forbidden (i.e. hand-operated sun-roofs, television sets, etc...) or only permitted if all necessary precautions are taken so as not to affect road safety (cigar lighter, manual selection of radio stations, CB, onboard telephone...).
–Adapt your driving style to suit your load (cant or bend, if the centre of gravity is high, etc...) to take account of weather conditions and the time of day.
If necessary, adjust the headlight beam levels.
–Never shut down the engine when the vehicle is moving (as this will cut off the supply to the power-assisted steering system and could decrease brake effectiveness).
5.When parking
–Check that the vehicle is correctly parked (i.e. that it does not obstruct traffic flow or threaten the security of neighbouring installations).
–If the vehicle is going to remain stationary for some time, use one or more wheel chocks to prevent it from moving (e.g. semi-trailer compressed air leakage, or in black ice conditions...).
–Check that:
•The parking brake is locked and immobilizes the road train or rig.
•The gear lever is in neutral.
•The battery isolating switch is open (turned off).
•The electromagnetic retarder is switched off.
•The air vents are not blocked (if an independent heater is used).
•The parking lights are switched on at night.
–Check that you have not left in the cab:
•important documents (personal, vehicle, load).
•unaccompanied animals.
A-5 Foreword
6. When repairing / servicing the vehicle
Prior to carrying out any work on the electronic air suspension (other than calibration), place axle stands under the chassis.
–Check the tightness of the wheel nuts according to recommendations.
–Prior to tilting the cab:
•Ensure there is enough necessary space available in front of the vehicle.
•Set the limits of a safety perimeter around the cab inside which you must pay attention that nobody tries to cross that area or park in it, not only during the cab tilting operations but also when the cab is fully tilted.
•Stop the engine, put the gear lever into neutral and make sure that no object is likely to fall onto the windscreen. If a refrigerator is fitted, drain it. Close the doors.
•Tilt the cab as far as possible. If the cab is only partially tilted, wedge it to prevent accidental movement.
–If the engine is running:
•Do not approach moving parts (fan, drive belts, etc...).
•Do not turn off the electrical power supply (shut down the engine first).
–When climbing up onto or down from the ramp behind the cab (tractor), use the steps and grab handles provided. Never jump down from the ramp. Take care not to burn yourself (on the vertical exhaust pipe and silencer).
–Fuel is inflammable: if the fuel filler cap is open, smoking is forbidden and there must be no naked flame in the vicinity.
–Batteries are filled with acids, which can cause serious injuries. They must be handled with great care.
–If you start the engine using an external power source:
•Use cables of the correct dimensions.
•Make sure that the + and - polarities are connected properly.
–When changing a fuse, it is vital to use another fuse of the same size.
–Only specialists should install additional power lines.
–The installation of additional air lines requires a technical study carried out or approved by the manufacturer.
–It is strictly forbidden to heat polyamide hoses (braking circuit pipes).
–Raising the vehicle with a jack. chock the wheels prior to jacking.
–Immobilizing the vehicle: use one or several wheel chocks as necessary.
–Wheels and tyres:
•Never check tyre pressures or inflate or deflate a tyre, which is hot.
•Never stand in front of a tyre when checking the pressure or inflating it.
•When fitting a roadwheel, take great care to centre wheels fitted with centring clamps (for trilex wheels, position the clamp at the segment crossover point).
A-6 Foreword
–Repairs on the open road: collect the fluids, which have been drained (such as oil, fuel, coolant...).
–With an eye to environmental protection, take into consideration the laws in force (recovery of oil / anti-freeze / cartridges).
When draining oils (engine / gearbox / drive axles), you run the risk of burning yourself (hot oil).
When draining coolant, you run the risk of burning yourself (hot fluid).
–Independent heater: use motor vehicle diesel fuel only.
–If anti-skid chains are used, the rear wings should be removed, road speed should be reduced and chain tension should be tested at regular intervals.
Any modification to circuits (electrical, electronic or compressed air) may have serious consequences. Such work should only be undertaken in agreement with the manufacturer. RENAULT TRUCKS decline any responsibility in the event of non-conformity in assembly.
Only genuine, original RENAULT TRUCKS parts and circuits defined by the manufacturer guarantee quality, safety and reliability.
