OPERATION
OPERATING COMPONENTS
To select a setting: Press the switch until the
required position is reached, it will cycle between
options.
Inter Axle Diff Lock (IDL)
Do not engage the inter axle diff lock while the machine
is travelling on tar or graded surfaces. This will cause
damage to the differential.
The IDL is used to activate the inter axle differential
lock in the transfer case.
If the IDL switch is pressed while the left LED on the
SSM switch is off, then the IDL will be applied and
the left LED will illuminate.
If the IDL switch is pressed while the left LED is
illuminated then the IDL will be switched Off.
The right LED on the SSM switch is for machines
with CTD.
The IDL Status light on the SSM switch on the CDU
should flash if the request is active but feedback
(from pressure switches) indicates that the function
is not engaged. If illumination is steady, it confirms
this function is engaged.
It is recommended that the IDL lock is engaged
when the machine is travelling over poor ground
conditions.
NOTE
The machine will automatically apply the
IDL and CTD if wheel spin is detected.
Gear Hold Switch
The Gear Hold switch is used to lock the
transmission in a selected gear and prevent
automatic gear shifting.
This function is useful to ascend and descend steep
inclines and in conditions where a change in gear
may cause the vehicle to lose traction.
The Anti-Shift Cycle feature controlled by the CCU,
that holds the transmission in the lower gear for 12
seconds and engine at 2 120 rpm, is overridden
when this switch is activated.
Theswitchhastwopositions:
OFF: Normal position.
ON:Gearholdswitchedon.
When the LED is OFF, the transmission is in the
normal automatic operating mode.
When the LED is ON, the transmission will hold the
gear that it is in at the time of the switch being
activated. Normal down shifting will occur, but the
transmission will not up shift to a higher gear until
the switch is switched OFF (except in over speed
conditions).
When the switch is activated, the CDU will display
the gear number that the transmission will be ‘held’
in.
Retardation/Speed Control Switch
NOTE
The retarder function can only function
when the engine valve brake is functioning
(in lock-up).
