2.    Test drive your truck in an uncongested area.

• Try the hydraulic functions.
• Check that the steering is easy and smooth.
• Drive the truck slowly in both directions.
• Drive through the full speed range in both forward

safely, don't drive the truck.

problem to your supervisor.

You can get checklist forms from your Crown dealer
