[QUOTE="Rick Ross, post: 2869224, member: 51847"] If you want to learn it ask what type of tractor you will be testing in, grab a notepad and start writing everything down. I did it on Excel and used the book as a guide and had zero issues with any of it. Excel allowed me to.move parts around to make it flow better for me. For my state they had things they wanted to hear with certain parts of your pretrip. The mirror has no illegal stickers, operating range of air pressure, belt or gear driven compressor, amount of play allowed in in steering wheel (10° or rougly 2 inches), tread depth and tire psi for all tires, dot approved reflective tape and on and on. We did the air brake test, in cab, entire engine compartment and then down the driver side of the tractor and trailer. At some point you need to decide when you want to mention passenger side items that differ like the exhaust and fender mirror. The harder test is keeping lots of old guys from coming to feeders...that's good for me. [/QUOTE]
