When it comes to vehicle and street sweeper maintenance, record keeping is vital. Creating a simple log and spending a few minutes each day to track inspections and maintenance can help you plan your budget, cut down time and even lower your inventory costs.
According to our partner NiteHawk, your sweeper maintenance log should include the date and service performed and be signed-off by the responsible technician. Make note of parts used, and keep logs for all of your equipment, including your sweepers plows, paving equipment, pressure washers, utility vehicles and more. If you need a specific maintenance schedule for a piece of equipment, please contact us and we can help you plan your tasks.
