Mining underground is hard work. Your equipment faces tough conditions daily. That\u2019s why caring for your underground mine truck is so important. Proper maintenance keeps operations safe, reduces downtime, and saves cash over time. This post shares practical advice to help you keep your truck in great shape. Whether you\u2019re a site manager or an operator, these tips come from real-world experience. Let\u2019s dive in.<\/p>\n
Picture this: \u043f\u043e\u0434\u0437\u0435\u043c\u043d\u044b\u0435 \u0448\u0430\u0445\u0442\u043d\u044b\u0435 \u0433\u0440\u0443\u0437\u043e\u0432\u0438\u043a\u0438<\/b><\/u><\/strong><\/a>\u00a0carry heavy loads through cramped, dusty tunnels. Neglect upkeep, and small problems grow fast. Routine checks catch issues early. They improve performance too. A well-kept truck hauls more material without failing. It also lasts longer, so you replace it less often.<\/p>\n Safety is key in mining. Worn brakes or damaged parts can cause accidents. A solid maintenance routine protects your crew. It\u2019s not just about the truck\u2014it\u2019s about everyone\u2019s safety.<\/p>\n Before starting the engine, do a quick walk-around. This simple step spots trouble before it grows.<\/p>\n Look for cracks or dents on the frame. Underground bumps can hide damage. Check the dump box for wear. If it\u2019s damaged, unloading might fail.<\/p>\n Tires need daily checks. Measure tread depth and look for cuts. Low pressure? Fill them up. Uneven wear might mean alignment issues.<\/p>\n Open the hood. Check oil, coolant, and hydraulic fluid. Low levels suggest leaks. See puddles under the truck? Find the source. Fixing a small leak now prevents big repairs later.<\/p>\n Check fuel filters too. Clean ones keep the engine running smoothly. Clogged filters hurt performance.<\/p>\n Grease is a lifesaver for your truck. It reduces friction and wear. But too much grease causes problems.<\/p>\n Focus on pivot points, like kingpins and bushings. Grease them every shift in dusty areas. Use thick grease that stays in place.<\/p>\n Steering joints? Grease them weekly. This keeps handling tight in narrow tunnels.<\/p>\n Don\u2019t ignore hard-to-reach spots. Use extensions if needed. Wipe off extra grease\u2014it attracts dirt, which wears parts down.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s a tip: Keep a log of lubrication. It helps track patterns and avoid over-greasing.<\/p>\n Brakes keep your truck safe. Hydraulics lift and dump loads. Both need regular care.<\/p>\n Listen for squeaks or grinding. Thin pads make those noises. Check discs for scratches. Replace worn parts quickly.<\/p>\n Test the parking brake. It must hold on slopes.<\/p>\n Look for cracks in hoses. They handle high pressure underground. Replace damaged ones before they break.<\/p>\n Leaking cylinders? Tighten fittings. If seals are bad, rebuild them.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s a checklist for brakes and hydraulics:<\/p>\n \u041f\u0440\u043e\u0432\u0435\u0440\u044c\u0442\u0435<\/b><\/u><\/strong><\/a>\u00a0these during inspections.<\/p>\n The engine is your underground mine truck\u2019s heart. Keep it clean and tuned.<\/p>\n Swap oil every 500 hours. Dirty oil causes clogs. Air filters? Change them monthly in dusty mines. This helps the engine run smoothly.<\/p>\n Fuel filters stop clogs. Check them regularly.<\/p>\n Shift gently to avoid wear. Check fluid color. Dark fluid means trouble. Flush it if needed.<\/p>\n Overheating? Clean the radiator. Dust piles up fast underground.<\/p>\n Dark tunnels make lights vital. Batteries power everything.<\/p>\n Clean terminals to stop rust. Check water levels in lead-acid batteries. Charge fully after shifts.<\/p>\n Weak starts? Test the alternator.<\/p>\n Frayed wires can spark fires. Check connections. Replace dim bulbs. Clear lights improve safety.<\/p>\n Tires take a beating in mines. Good care makes them last.<\/p>\n Rotate tires every few months. It balances wear. Align wheels if the truck pulls to one side.<\/p>\n Keep tire pressure right. Low tires overheat and fail. Use a gauge daily.<\/p>\n Worn tread? Replace tires. Slippery tires are dangerous on wet rock.<\/p>\n This table shows quick fixes.<\/p>\n Underground mines are dusty. Grime gets everywhere.<\/p>\n Wash the truck weekly. Blast mud off the undercarriage. Clean cab filters for fresh air.<\/p>\n Add dust seals to joints. They block dirt. Cover exposed parts during downtime.<\/p>\n Knowledge keeps things running. Teach operators the basics.<\/p>\n Show how to check fluids. Practice spotting leaks. It builds skills.<\/p>\n Log every check. Look for patterns, like parts failing often. Adjust plans based on logs.<\/p>\n Training reduces mistakes. It also lifts team spirit\u2014people feel included.<\/p>\n Some problems need pros. Don\u2019t guess.<\/p>\n Odd noises or shakes? Call a mechanic. Waiting makes things worse.<\/p>\n Schedule major services yearly. Rebuild engines or transmissions then.<\/p>\n Good upkeep saves cash.<\/p>\n Prevent breakdowns with regular checks. Keep spare parts handy to avoid delays.<\/p>\n Track expenses. See where money goes. Tweak plans to save more.<\/p>\n A tip: Share ideas with other mines. Learn what works.<\/p>\nDaily Checks to Kick Off Your Shift<\/b><\/strong><\/h2>\n
