  If the joystick function is not working on your McNeilus Trucks, it might be because the engine RPM is too HIGH, so reduce engine speed to below 1600 RPM. Another possibility is that the system air pressure is too LOW, so wait for the chassis air system to build pressure above 80 PSI and check proper operation of holdback valve. If the problem persists, it may be a system issue that requires shop service and repair.
