1. The winter temperature is cold, and most dump trucks are powered by diesel engines. After stopping for a long time, the vehicle needs to start idling for a while and wait for the water temperature to rise to at least 45℃ before starting gear.

2. When the dump truck is arranged into a column, although the speed is not high, the load and weight of the dump truck is too large. The car before and after should be kept at least ten meters apart, and the distance between rain and snow weather in winter should also be bigger.

3. When the dump truck is driving on the muddy road with rain and snow, it should keep slow speed and avoid shifting, braking and rapid acceleration. Do not drive near the side of the road or ditch to avoid sideslip.

4. When going uphill, if the road slope is too large, or the road condition is not good, you should change into low gear in advance. It is forbidden to slide in neutral when going downhill.

5. It is absolutely safe to drive when decelerating after corners, especially in winter when braking distance increases due to cold temperatures and slippery roads. But many dump truck drivers like to leave the braking process to the corner, in fact, should step on the brake before entering the corner, step on the accelerator after entering the corner. When stepping on the brake, it will make the brake wear degree is not the same before and after the curve, and the long time will lead to the shaking of the vehicle braking, affecting the balance of the vehicle. If the direction and brake force control is not reasonable, it can also cause accidents.

6. When parking in winter, choose the right place to park. Shall not stop the dump truck in a slope place, if there is snow on the road, to stop in the sun, to avoid snow melting ice.

After mastering the skills of using the dump truck in winter maintenance, it can greatly reduce the failure rate of the usual vehicle, and the safety of driving in winter can also be improved a lot. Winter is not only a test of people, the reliability of the dump truck is not a small test. If you encounter minor faults, minor faults must be timely maintenance.
