Preventive Maintenance (PM) is a huge part of successfully keeping your fleet maintained and up-to-date with inspections and vehicle repairs.  Having a program set up and in place will aid in proactively avoiding breakdowns and potentially lessen the downtime of a unit.  A preventive maintenance plan also contributes to the overall life of the unit, and helps to ensure that it will last longer on the road.  Additionally, PM schedules will allow you to lease or rent the unit longer than a unit that has not been regularly maintained.

  1. Is your preventive maintenance plan proactive or reactive?
  2. What are your preventive maintenance intervals and grace periods?
  3. Are the preventive maintenance scheduled attached to the correct units with the correct information?
  4. Are your meter readings entered accurately?
  5. Are you monitoring the cost of preventive maintenance for your L/R fleet?

Being proactive with your preventive maintenance schedules and ensuring that accurate information is kept for the L/R units in the system will help keep your units on the road and maintained for the life of the unit.  Want more information?  View our full article HERE.
