^- I'm Staff Sergeant Austin Hoyt

00:01.924 --> 00:05.262
^NCOIC of Special Purpose Vehicle Operations Training.

00:05.262 --> 00:07.518
So, today we're performing 18 hundred check out

00:07.518 --> 00:10.691
on our Periodic Maintenance team's van.

00:10.691 --> 00:12.602
Our 18 hundred checkout consists of,

00:12.602 --> 00:14.417
checking the vehicles tires,

00:14.417 --> 00:15.759
making sure that they, actually, have

00:15.759 --> 00:17.846
the required pounds per square inch

00:17.846 --> 00:19.864
of air pressure on the inside,

00:19.864 --> 00:21.693
as well as the tread depth of the vehicle.

00:21.693 --> 00:22.867
Anything from that,

00:22.867 --> 00:25.216
to damage on the interior or on the exterior,

00:25.216 --> 00:26.358
and make sure everything's tied down

00:26.358 --> 00:27.224
and ready to go to the field.

00:27.224 --> 00:29.032
So, our vehicle inspections are really important

00:29.032 --> 00:30.392
for a few different reasons.

00:30.392 --> 00:32.891
Doing a thorough 18 hundred checkout of your vehicle,

00:32.891 --> 00:36.066
as well as using your tech data in order to do the job,

00:36.066 --> 00:37.890
makes it so that you don't miss anything.

00:37.890 --> 00:39.719
So, there's a few things that go into that.

00:39.719 --> 00:41.057
There's anything from,

00:41.057 --> 00:43.542
making sure that you have the correct vehicle tires on it,

00:43.542 --> 00:45.985
to making sure that everything's gonna work

00:45.985 --> 00:46.818
going out in the field.

00:46.818 --> 00:48.936
We teach the students to go above and beyond

00:48.936 --> 00:50.004
when it comes to there inspection,

00:50.004 --> 00:52.357
because we want them to be able to anticipate

00:52.357 --> 00:53.209
anything going wrong.

00:53.209 --> 00:55.741
And if they find something very minuscule

00:55.741 --> 00:57.583
it could cause a lot of time out in the field.

00:57.583 --> 00:59.040
Our furthest site is, about,

00:59.040 --> 01:00.440
3 and a half hours for one way.

01:00.440 --> 01:03.127
So if they can prevent lost man hours

01:03.127 --> 01:05.301
and lost job completion times,

01:05.301 --> 01:08.801
if we can prevent any of that is our goal.
