Maintenance of mixer truck on heavy rain day
June 11, 2025

In the event of heavy rain, the mixer should be cleaned in time after returning, otherwise it will cause sludge to accumulate in the gap on the underside of the mixer. This is where the moisture can be hidden and the place that is most likely to cause rust.

1. Paint protection

The acidic components in the rainwater have a strong corrosive effect on the paint surface of the mixer truck. Over time, the paint surface of the mixer will be damaged. Therefore, in the rainy season, it is best to apply the paint to the mixer. . The easiest thing is to wax. For longer, it is more effective to seal the glaze. Regardless of the method, wear an invisible protective outerwear to the mixer to prevent the lacquer from fading and aging, so that the beautiful car is often accompanied.

2. Chassis care

The chassis of the mixer is the closest to the ground. It is particularly affected by the road conditions. Generally, this part is most likely to be rusted, and the wheel shell may even loosen the perforation. Therefore, we must pay attention to the cleaning and anti-rust treatment of the car chassis, do a chassis anti-rust treatment, anti-rust effect can be maintained for 3 months. After finishing the anti-rust treatment, be careful not to wash the body and the chassis with an alkaline cleaning solution, which will affect the anti-rust effect and shorten the anti-rust time.

3. Brake water removal

The majority of the brake system of the mixer is a double-line vacuum-assisted hydraulic brake. It is worth noting that the brake fluid that transmits the braking force has a very strong water absorption. If water enters the brake fluid, the high temperature generated by the friction will vaporize the water during braking. The gas is compressible and is compressed in the brake fluid of the mixer, which may cause the brake to fail or even fail. When the rain is heavy, the humidity of the air will become larger and larger. If the brake fluid of the mixer has a small amount of water before the rainy season, it will be very dangerous. In some vehicles where the brake fluid absorbs more water, the water droplets can be seen on the brake fluid cup cover. Therefore, it is necessary to check the brake fluid during maintenance to ensure the safety of the driver.
