Food Truck Maitenance

As a Sydney Food Truck owner, you'll need to know how to perform some basic repairs.

Tires Ensure that your food truck has high-quality tires to improve performance, gas mileage, and safety.

The air pressure in your truck's tires should be checked and monitored on a regular basis. Checking your food truck's tire pressure on a daily basis can help distribute the weight of your food truck evenly across the tires and prevent flat tires while driving at high speeds.

Filters
Remember to change the oil filters in your food truck on a regular basis. If the temperature drops, water can accumulate fuel in your system. Particles and moisture can be avoided if your fuel filter is inspected and replaced on a regular basis.

Battery
Always check your battery's level and make sure it's safe and secure, as well as the connectors. You can get a free battery check at a car parts store. Your battery should also be replaced on a regular basis, preferably every 72 months.

If your battery dies and you have to rush away late or miss a meal truck or a food event, it can hurt your customer loyalty and cost you a lot of money.

Windshield
Keep an eye out for any cracks or holes in the surface of your windshield. This is especially important for food trucks in hotter climates because the pressure on the windshield increases as the temperature rises.

Wipers Wiper blades should be replaced every 6 to 12 months, depending on age and sadness. As winter approaches, it's even more important to replace wiper blades, as idle blades make driving in the snow extremely difficult and dangerous.

Different weather conditions necessitate different types of windshield wiper fluid, so if you work in a cold environment, make sure to use antifreeze-infused wiper fluid. Fill your windshield wiper fluid reservoir with a suitable windshield wiper fluid that contains a cleaning fluid concentrate, not just water.

Liquid
Remember to check your fluid levels on a regular basis to keep your food truck running smoothly.

You'll need to test the following fluids:

Transmission fluid Antifreeze Windshield Wiper Fluid
Steering assist Engine Belts & Hoses Fluid Brake Fluid Fuel
Check your liquid while under the hood, and don't forget to keep an eye on your belts and pipes. Although they won't need to be changed as frequently as your liquid, it's still important to keep an eye on them to ensure quality. If you notice any cracks, cracks, or leaks, you should replace the belt or pipe right away.

First-aid kit
Pack the essential items you'll need in your truck in case of an emergency, and make sure you have enough room in your truck to store them.

The following are some of the highlights:

When it comes to oil, your food truck isn't the only thing to be concerned about. Changing the oil on your generator on a regular basis is one of the most important things you can do to extend its life. When a manufacturer recommends changing oil, check your owner's manual.

Seasonal considerations
Don't forget to keep a de-icer on hand during the winter months to avoid the inconvenience of having frozen locks when you've committed to a big event.

Even food trucks with good tires can benefit from replacing their regular tires with winter tires.
