STEERING COLUMN
Refer to Figure 3-1.
Transmission Shift Lever
The Transmission Shift Lever (1) is located on the right side
of the steering column. It is used to select the transmission
gears.
Before moving the lever up or down, pull back on the lever
first. Position the lever up to actuate forward or down to
actuate reverse. When the lever is in neutral, it rests in a
detent.
To shift the transmission to forward first through sixth gear,
rotate the knob on the transmission lever to the small 1
through 6. To shift the transmission to reverse first through
third, rotate the knob to the large 1 through 3.
Turn Signal Lever
The Turn Signal Lever (2) (Figure 3-1 and 3-2) is located on
the left side of the steering column. Pushing the lever down
causes the left indicator light, left front and left rear turn
signals to flash. Pushing the lever up causes the right turn
signal indicator light, the right front and right rear turn signals
to flash.
Windshield Wiper/Washer Control
The Windshield Wiper Switch (2) is incorporated in the turn
signal lever. Rotate the center portion of the lever to energize
the windshield washer pump to spray washer fluid on the
windshield.
The Windshield Wiper Switch has three positions; O, I, and
II. Position the wiper/washer portion of the lever to I to
operate the wiper at low speed or to II to operate the wiper at
high speed. Position the wiper/washer portion of the lever to
O to turn the wiper motor off and to automatically return the
wiper to the parked position.
Horn
The Horn Button(3) is a push-button type switch located on
the end of the turn signal lever. Depressing the Horn Button
will sound the horn on the cab exterior.
Ignition Switch
The Ignition Switch (4) is located on the right side of the
steering column. The switch is key operated with four posi-
tions: accessory (left position), off (vertical position), run
(position between vertical and right), and start (right posi-
tion).
With the Ignition Switch in the off position, all electrical power
is off except for the headlights, marker lights, gauge lights,
turn and stop light, cab dome light, 12V accessory outlet, and
work lights.
The accessory position energizes all electrical components
except the engine ECM. The run position is the same as
accessory except the engine ECM is energized. The start
position energizes the starter relay which in turn energizes
the starter motor solenoid and cranks the engine for starting.
The switch will return to run when the switch is released after
the engine is started. Turn the switch to off to shut down the
engine. The key can be removed in the off position only.
Left Turn Signal Direction Indicator
The Left Turn Signal Direction Indicator (5) is located at the
top left side of the steering column. It is a green arrow light
that flashes when the turn signal lever is pushed down or the
top of the hazard light switch (10) is pushed to on.
