hood hold open device is engaged.
Close the Hood
The hood is equipped with a hood hold-
open device. In order for the hood hold-
open device to become engaged, the
vehicle hood must be fully open. Once the
vehicle hood is fully open, the hold-open
latch will automatically engage and will
need to be disengaged by the operator.
T
o disengage the latch for hood closure,
rotate the release lever fully forward.
Press in to disengage.
When closing the hood, be sure that you
maintain the same point of contact (top of
hood) to control the movement of the hood
as it closes. Gently lower the hood into
place to avoid damage to the hood or cab.
WARNING
DO NOT let go of the hood while it
closes. Close
the hood in a controlled
manner which requires hands firmly
grasping the hood and feet on a sta-
ble, non-slip, surface. Failure to control
the hood as it closes may result in
death or personal injury
WARNING
Always ensure the hood hold open
latch is
engaged to keep the hood fully
open any time anyone gets under the
hood for any reason. Failure to do so
may cause the hood to close uncon-
trollably which may result in death or
personal injury.
WARNING
Before closing the hood, be sure the
area
is
clear—no people or objects are
in the way. Failure to do so may result
in death or personal injury.
