Know the Hazards

MAKE SURE YOUR BRAKES WORK

Test the brakes on your truck at the start of each shift. 
Know the distance it takes to stop before you start 
working.

If at any time the stopping distance is too long for 
you to stop safely, don't drive the truck. Report any 
problem to your supervisor.

AVOID PARKING ON INCLINES

Block the wheels of your truck if you must park on an 
incline.

SERVICE BRAKE

Step down on the brake pedal to apply the brakes. The 
harder you step down, the harder the braking will be.

PARKING BRAKE

The parking brake is automatically applied after the 
truck comes to a stop.

Avoid parking on inclines. But if you must, block the 
wheels of your truck.
