CAB MAINTENANCE PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE Seat Belt Inspection Points 03004 4. Check buckle and latch for proper operation and to determine if latch plate is worn, deformed, or damaged. 5. Inspect the retractor web storage device, which is mounted on the floor of the vehicle, for damage. The retractor is the heart of the occupant restraint system and can often be damaged if abused, even unintentionally. Check operation to ensure that it is not locked up and that it spools out and retracts webbing properly. WARNING! Failure to adjust tether belts properly can cause excessive movement of the seat in an accident. This could lead to death or greater injuries for you. Tether belts should be adjusted so that they are taut when the seat is in its most upward and forward position. 6. If tethers are used, be sure they are properly attached to the seat and, if adjustable, that they are adjusted in accordance with installation instructions. Tethers must also be inspected for web wear and proper tightness of mounting hardware. – 232 – Y53-6033 Regional Haul (R05/10)

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE 7. Mounting hardware should be evaluated for corrosion, and for tightness of bolts and nuts. 8. Check web in areas exposed to ultraviolet rays from the sun. If the color of the web in these areas is gray to light brown, the physical strength of the web may have deteriorated due to exposure to the sun's ultraviolet rays. Replace the system. Once the need for replacement of the seat belt has been determined, be certain it is only replaced with an authorized PACCAR Parts replacement seat belt. If the inspection indicates that any part of the seat belt system requires replacement, the entire system must be replaced. An installation guide is attached to every replacement belt. Utilize the proper guide for your type of seat, and follow the instructions very closely. It is vitally important that all components be reinstalled in the same position as the original components that were removed and that the fasteners be torqued to specification. This will maintain the design integrity of the mounting points for the seat belt assembly. Contact your Authorized Peterbilt Dealer if you have any questions concerning seat belt replacement. Windshield Wipers/Washer CAB MAINTENANCE Check wiper blades annually or every 60,000 miles (96,000 km). Anco 18-inch (450mm) wiper blades are recommended. The windshield washer tank is located inside the engine compartment below the radiator expansion tank. See “Washer Reservoir” on page 234. Check the windshield washing fluid level weekly. If necessary, fill to top. CAUTION: If the electric pump is operated for a long period (more than 15 seconds) with a dry reservoir, the pump rotor may be damaged. Clean all inside and outside windows regularly. Use an alcohol-based cleaning solution and wipe dry with either a lint-free or a chamois cloth. Avoid running the wiper blades over a dry windshield to prevent scratching the glass. Spray on washer fluid first. A scratched windshield will reduce visibility.
