PART 7: STARTING & OPERATING THE VEHICLE
PB1319 (CAT. NO. 5296 ) —75— 22-01691 (R02/02)
Switching from Curbside (RH) to Streetside (LH) Operation
1. Bring the vehicle to a complete stop by using the foot brake pedal.
2. Shift the transmission to neutral & pull out the parking valve knob.
(Note: Do not apply the work brake).
3. Move the toggle switch located on the curbside (RH) electronic
shift control panel to the LH position. The red light under the RH
symbol will go out; the green light under the LH symbol will come
on. This indicates the streetside transmission control is active.
4. Move to the streetside (LH) drive station.
Using The Work Brake
1. Apply the work brake by moving flipper valve to “ON.” This applies
front & rear service brakes and shifts transmission to “neutral.”
2. Release the work brake by moving the flipper valve to “OFF”. This
releases the service brakes and shifts the transmission to “drive.”
If Your Vehicle Must Be Towed
Returning a Towed Vehicle to Service
You will have to add lubricant to prevent damage after your vehicle
has been towed.
1. Into the pinion cage, add 1 pint (.47 liter) of lubricant.
or
Into the inter-axle differential, add 2 pints (.94 liter) of lubricant.
See the Index, under Lubricant Specifications, for the lubricant
required by each axle.
WARNING!
•
To avoid injury & damage, never apply the work brake
when the vehicle is in motion.
•
Do not use the work brake instead of the service brake
to stop the vehicle. The work brake fully applies the
brakes and, if used while the vehicle is moving, could
result in a sudden stop, skid, or loss of control, leading
to an accident and possible serious personal injury.
CAUTION: Remove the driveline and axle shafts or lift
the driving wheels off the ground before towing the
vehicle. You could seriously damage your vehicle by
towing it with the driveline connected and the drive
wheels on the ground. Worse, when vehicles are towed
either by wrecker or piggy-back, the lubricant in the top
front of the drive axle will drain to the rear. This will
leave the top components dry. The resulting friction will
seriously damage them. Always remove the main drive-
shaft and axle shafts before towing your vehicle.
