Default comprehensive maintenance schedule

Does anyone have a comprehensive maintenance schedule for Trailmanors? There isn't one in the manual, and it's a pain to search through all the associated manufacturers' manuals. If no one has one, please submit suggestions for items to be included, and I will create a comprehensive maintenance schedule.

To me, the most important one is the running gear. Obviously you will check tire pressure every day, and tire temperature at every stop, but I don't consider this "maintenance".

Beyond that, adjust the brakes every x miles. Dexter says 3000 miles. I installed self-adjusting brakes to avoid this. And grease the wheel bearings every y miles. Dexter says 12,000 - I do it every 5000 miles.

Nothing else is as important as these.

By the way, the TireMinder is working really well. I get the tire pressure and temperature right on my phone, and an audible beep from the control unit, no bluetooth required, if anything goes wrong.

What type of tire minder system do you have? I see there are many

For a comprehensive list, I think I would want a winterising routine built into a maintenance schedule.
