NOTE: Chain vibration can cause damage to
hydraulic lines, hoses or machined surfaces.
DO NOT put chains over these areas.
7. Remove key from cab and lock cab door.
8. Always tape or cap the exhaust pipe outlet shut
after it has cooled, before transporting. This will
prevent air from spinning the turbocharger while
the vehicle is transported at highway speeds.
The turbochargers depend upon engine oil
pressure to lubricate the shaft bearings and may
be damaged if spun dry. Be sure to remove
tape after transporting or before starting engine.
