Shutting Down the Vehicle
If the vehicle has to be stored for an extended period of time, follow the chassis manufacturer’s
shutdown and maintenance requirements.
Also:
1. Park the vehicle on hard, level ground and apply the parking brake.
2. Make sure that all moving parts are in their home position (tailgate, arm, crusher panel, packer,
etc.).
3. Turn OFF, in sequence, the hydraulic pump, the electrical system, the engine and the master
switch.
4. Drain all air tanks.
