    How to maintain your heavy duty low bed trailer?

     New Heavy Duty Low Bed Trailer Maintenance:

    1. Before the new lowbed semi trailer is used for the first time, we should check it according to the “instructions for use” and tighten all external bolts and nuts.

    2. Within the first 300 kilometers of a new drop deck trailer, its components are in a running state. During this period, the weight of the trailer should not exceed 80% of the rated load, and it should not be driven on muddy roads.

    3. After the new low loader trailer runs for 30-50 kilometers, check the wheels and suspension bearings for high heat or noise. If you find any abnormality, find out the cause in time and remove it.
