the skills of driving a HOWO tractor in snow

Snow falls in most areas in the north, but driving HOWO tractor in such weather makes it more difficult, and it is easy for HOWO tractor to slip. Let me share some tips for driving HOWO tractor in snowy weather. Helping you travel safely!

When driving a HOWO tractor, be careful not to change lanes frequently, keep a safe enough distance from the overtaken vehicle when overtaking is necessary, and do not rush back to the original road after overtaking, but pull away from the vehicle behind After enough distance, return to the original path.

Do not refuel heavily when driving a HOWO tractor. After the tires rotate at high speed, the adhesion to the ground will be reduced, and it is easy to slip. HOWO tractor drivers should pay attention to slowly lift the clutch, lightly supply oil, and usually start in 2nd gear.

At this time, they can choose 3rd gear to start to reduce torque. If there is a slippage at the start, immediately fully retract the accelerator and adjust the steering wheel gently to ensure that the HOWO tractor drives in the correct driving direction.If necessary, you can install snow chains on the HOWO tractor to increase the friction between the tires and the ice and snow road to ensure a more stable driving. It is necessary to take out the snow chains in time after crossing the ice and snow road, otherwise it is easy to cause Damage to tires.

About howo tractors overtaking skills: HOWO tractor driving on the road have many gears, and the process of accelerating and upshifting is also very cumbersome, which is very difficult for the driver to drive at high speed and avoid obstacles when facing obstacles. If you are not careful, an accident may occur. If you are overtaking, you should also pay special attention to tractors drivers should pay attention to certain methods to avoid traffic accidents.

When the tractor is driving, if it encounters a heavy duty trailer in front of it and wants to overtake the past, the best way is to first drive away from the large truck with an interval of about 100 meters,

ahead is in good condition according to the road conditions ahead.Under the condition of good vision, use the  tractors to overtake the turn signal, honk the horn, and flash the headlights, and pay attention to the direction of the semi trailer. If the semi trailer does not occupy the road, and there is no tendency to sway from side to side, increase the accelerator to quickly overtake. After overtaking, don’t let your HOWO tractors merge to the driving lane immediately. It is better to leave a distance of about 500 meters with the semi trailer and then turn back to the normal driving lane. During the whole process, be sure to hold the direction tightly. When approaching the truck, the honking and strobe lights must be stopped at the same time, which are indispensable.

The purpose of this is to tell the semi trailer driver to overtake. Sometimes the trailer cannot see your flashing lights because of overloading. There is also a situation where the horn cannot be heard due to the noise itself, so the horn and the flashing lights must be stopped at the same time, and it is best not to be continuous during the whole process. Even if the truck driver falls asleep, he can be woken up by the sound of the horn to prevent an accident. Note that the HOWO tractors cannot overtake on a curve or when the road conditions are unclear.
