Winter and your water Valve

In the winter it's a must that you leave your water hose trickle with water this will keep the line from freezing on you while you drive. Let it drip real slowly so you don't lose to much water on the ride to the load. Makesure you don't slip on the decks of your truck, an also be safe leave extra room while driving on ice roads.


Happy Holidays

Clean up cab after pump dump

After you dump at the pump the cab will have cement splats all over. The first thing to do here would be to get out grab the hose and wet the cab then go to top hopper and start the cleaning process the way you always do top to buttom. When you reach the cab. Start to wipe all the front of the cab with your waterproof gloves. this will release the cement so you can rinse it. If you fail to do this it will dry and the truck will start to look neglected and abused. If you do you will keep a clean truck and when a new truck comes in you will be given first thoughts for driving it by the boss.

Get out and look before backing up

Alway look before backing up. Get out of truck view your line before you drive it there could be anything behind you or rebar sticking out from crub that can rip your tires open these tires cost 600.00 each it takes two seconds to get out and look. Also walk the jobsite before you pull the truck on to it make sure the ground is hard not soft. Ask if there are cesspools that can cave in as you drive. Beaware of condistions like mud and sand that can get the truck stuck if not in 6 wheel drive.
