1.3 EFFECT OF DIESEL FUEL AND PTO HOURS ON MAINTENANCE INTERVALS

Diesel fuels

PTO hours
PTO hours should be converted into mileage 

according to the following formula:

1 PTO hour = 40 km 

1.4 MAINTENANCE IN SPECIAL OPERATING CONDITIONS

Contact a DAF dealer/main branch or importer for 

vehicles used in very specific or heavy 

conditions.

The service intervals can be modified, if 

necessary, in consultation with the dealer/main 

branch or importer to fit the appropriate operating 

conditions. 

1.5 FIRST SERVICE INSPECTION

The first service inspection should be carried out 

between the first 7,500 and 10,000 km or at most 

8 weeks after delivery of the vehicle, whichever 

comes first.

Note:

If the vehicle is fitted with a clutch wear indicator, 

a mark (centre punch) should be made in the 

wear indicator cover.

The mark should be placed exactly opposite the 

middle of the indicator.

This mark is necessary to allow clutch wear to be 

evaluated.
