VIDEO CONTENT REVIEW52 checks. Two machines. A source image, short description, and component list for every task.
How to read the counts: mixed checks count once as interactive. Conditional cleaning or tightening does not change a visual check’s category. Repeated occurrences stay on the same task.
Image limits: dump-truck screenshots come from the video; ADT images are 320 × 180 storyboard samples. Images show source context—not proof that every action was demonstrated. Described-only checks remain flagged.

Watch at 2:54Look underneath and around the vehicle for leaks, oil puddles, or objects that could interfere with operation. This check is repeated during the walkaround.
Inspects: underside and surrounding ground.
Watch at 3:04Check that the lens is clean and undamaged.
Inspects/interacts with: front-camera lens.
Watch at 3:12Confirm caps are secure and there are no leaks. A distinct tightening test isn’t established by the sampled frames.
Components: fluid filler caps and surrounding areas.

This packages the original check lists; timestamps are approximate. The Excel file includes a summary, one data sheet per machine, all 52 task screenshots, and source/scope notes.
Not counted as condition checks: ADT access preparation (0:30–1:15), starting/warming and cab setup (4:28–4:58), and recording/reporting results (5:53). Mirror positioning remains a separate interactive task.
Checks described rather than fully shown include belt tension, tire pressure, tread measurement, air-filter removal, and the warm transmission recheck. Related checks may share a representative frame.
Video inventory, not an operating manual. Follow applicable manufacturer and site procedures. Review the first video’s slack-adjuster measurement and filter-cleaning guidance before incorporating it into training.
