Chapter 2.8, Problem 1RQ
Why is a routine maintenance plan important?
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
The importance of routine maintenance plan.
Explanation of Solution
In case, the owner of a machine never changes its oil, tires, and brakes at a regular interval, the machine will develop complex problems that may cause:
- Increase in the repair expenses.
- Reduction in the efficiency of the machine.
To cope up with such type of complex problems, a routine inspection of the machine parts must be carried out to identify the problems that may affect the working of machine in future. This type of inspection is known as routine maintenance plan.
Routine maintenance plan is important for the following reasons.
- To prevent expensive repairing.
- To increase the life expectancy of the machinery.
- To increase the working efficiency of the machinery.
- To prevent the loss of economy for the company and employee.
- To provide reliable service.
