be subject to Government verification at unscheduled intervals. Verification will consist of
observation of the operations to determine that practices, methods, and procedures of the
contractor's inspection are being properly applied. Failure of the contractor to promptly correct
product deficiencies discovered shall be cause for suspension of acceptance until correction has
been made or until conformance of product to specification criteria has been demonstrated.
4.3 First production vehicle inspection. The first vehicle produced under the contract shall
be inspected by the contractor at his plant under the direction and in the presence of Government
representatives. The purpose of the inspection shall be to determine vehicle conformance with

Government of its rights under the provisions of the contract. The contractor shall maintain the
vehicle in a serviceable condition for the duration of the contract. Failure of the first production
vehicle to meet the requirements of the contract shall be cause for the Government to refuse
acceptance of all vehicles until corrective action has been taken.
* 4.3.1 Vehicle weight. The first production vehicle shall be weighed to determine the curb
weight and distribution of the curb weight on the front and rear axles. The total imposed loading
on front and rear axles shall be computed by the contractor and verified by the Government,
using the curb weight, the operator and assistant weights at 175 pounds each, and the payload
required to provide the specified GVW. The calculated imposed loads on the front and rear axles
shall be compared to the suspension, axle and tire load capacity ratings to determine if these
components are of adequate capacity to meet the contract requirements.
* 4.3.2 Road test. To determine conformance to 3.3.1, the vehicle shall be loaded to the
specified GVW and shall be operated on smooth, hard surfaced roads for not less than 50 miles
at speeds up to not less than 55 mph.
