LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE INTERVALS
New vehicles are lubricated at the factory. After the vehicle is placed in
operation, regular lubrication intervals, based on the type of service and
road conditions, should be established. Thorough lubrication at the
specified intervals will insure outstanding life cycle value and will reduce
overall expense.
The lubrication intervals specified should be performed at whatever
interval occurs first, whether it is months, miles (kilometers) or hours.
Only lubricants of superior quality, such as Motorcraft lubricants, should
be used. The use of inferior products will reduce the service life of the
vehicle or result in failure of its components.
Unless otherwise specified, never add lubricant unless it is the same
grade as that which is already being used. If the grade is not known or
not available, drain, flush and refill with new lubricant.
The interval between lubrication periods, oil changes, etc. depends
entirely upon operating conditions. The loads carried, speeds, road and
weather conditions all contribute to the frequency of lubrication periods.

Lubricate the brake slack adjuster (air brakes)
Lubricate rear caliper slide rails
Inspect the disc brake pads and the piston boots (hydraulic

Fuel system
Drain the accumulated water or sediment from the fuel tank(s)
Steering system
Lubricate the steering shaft(s), U-joints and splines when

Lubricate the steering linkage when equipped with grease
fittings
Grease the power steering gear output shaft
* Coolant protection checks should be made just prior to the onset of freezing
weather, where applicable. If coolant is dirty or rusty in appearance, the system
should be drained, flushed and refilled with the prescribed solution of cooling
system fluid and water. Use only permanent type coolant that meets Ford
specifications WSS-M97B51-A1. See the engine manufacturer’s operating guide for
supplemental corrosion inhibitor specifications.
