95/96
Engine response versus pedal movement may feel different from a mechanical governed engine. The electronic foot pedal assembly was designed to communicate “percentage” of foot pedal travel to the engine’s electronic control module. The engine will respond accordingly to the driver’s demand.
reference
Be sure engine is at idle when shifting from N (Neutral) to D (Drive) or R (Reverse). If the engine high idle feature is engaged and a shift is attempted, the high idle feature will be disengaged.
reference
During long engine idling periods with the transmission in neutral, the engine coolant temperature may fall below the normal operating range. Incomplete combustion of fuel is the end result of this, which can cause crankcase dilution, formation of lacquer or gummy deposits on the valves, pistons, and rings, and rapid accumulation of sludge in the engine. Always engage the high idle feature of the engine when idling over ____ minutes
5
When on scene with all warning lights activated, engage the engine high idle feature. Doing so will assist the alternator in keeping up with the electrical current demands placed on it and prevent the Load Manager from “cutting out” electrical accessories due to insufficient current flow.
reference
95/96 Stoping engine
all year trucks
Allow the engine to idle for ___ or ____ minutes. This allows the turbocharger adequate time to slow and cool down.
4 or 5 minutes
Stopping a turbocharged engine immediately after high-speed operation may cause damage to the turbocharger as it will continue to turn without an oil supply to the bearings. Failure of turbo oil seals and/or bearings
are the likely results of this practice. Try not to shut down the engine unless coolant temperature is ___ F or less.
195 degrees
When parked in quarters, plug the power cord into the “shore line power” receptacle located on left side of apparatus just below the driver side door. After plugging in the cord, turn switch to the ON position. The block heater lamp will illuminate. To disconnect, turn switch to the OFF position and remove power cord. Keeping the power cord plugged into the shoreline power outlet will aid in quick, dependable engine starts and increased engine and battery life.

1995/96 cab tilt
Turn the battery switch and the ignition switch to the ON position.
Continue holding the switch in the RAISE position until the cab has reached the full tilt position (approximately ___ degrees).
If the hydraulic motor is running but the cab will not lift, check to make sure that the pump flow control knob on the lift pump itself is turned ____ until it stops.
50 degrees
clockwise
95/96 Lower cab
Hold the switch in the LOWER position until the cab has settled on its supports and continue to hold for another ___ seconds to insure that the cab locks are fully
engaged.
five (5)
The cab manual lift system is to be used only if there is a need to gain access to components under the cab in the
event of an electrical system power failure on the apparatus.

Brakes: Service Brake Adjustment Check Procedure
Build up air pressure in apparatus until governor cutout pressure is reached (approximately 120 psi).
- Stop engine, chock wheels and release brakes.
- With brakes released, using appropriate ruler or tape measure, measure and record the distance from the edge of the brake chamber to the center of the brake push rod/slack adjuster clevis pin (position A).
- Brakes applied: have an assistant hold down brake foot pedal as far as it will go without moving. Measure and record the distance from the edge of the brake chamber to the center of the brake push rod/slack adjuster clevis pin (position B).
- Subtract the distance recorded in position A from position B. This is the amount of actual brake push rod travel. If the distance measured exceeds 2” on the REAR
BRAKES, the brakes are out of adjustment and require immediate attention. If the distance measured exceeds 2” on the FRONT BRAKES, the brakes are out of adjustment and require immediate attention.
- Repeat this procedure on ALL four wheels.
reference
When inspecting the brake adjustment, it is recommended that the flexible air lines to the brake chambers and brake diaphragms be inspected for air leakage at the same time.
The following steps describe the procedure for this inspection:
With spring brakes released, wheels chocked and service brakes applied and held down by an assistant:
- Grasp each flexible air hose connected to each brake chamber and shake gently.
- Listen for any air leakage at or around each air hose. Inspect hoses for any cracks, cuts, routing problems or wear.
reference
The lining should not be less than ___ of an inch on either pad. A good rule of thumb is that the lining should not be less than the steel backing plate of the shoe.
1⁄4
Spring brake chambers require air pressure to release. If sufficient pressure is not available and if the vehicle must be towed, the spring brakes can be manually released or
“caged”. To manually release the spring brake chamber, unscrew (turn counter-clockwise) the 1/2” diameter bolt located at the end of the spring brake chamber utilizing
a 3/4” box end wrench or socket assembly.
reference
The spring brakes should only be “caged” in an emergency situation where the apparatus must be moved or towed to a new location.
Qualified shop personnel should only perform this procedure.
reference
caging brakes
Tighten the nut on the bolt until it can no longer be turned in the clockwise direction. The bolt should stick out of the brake chamber approximately __ inches when fully caged.

Always wear safety goggles and protective clothing when working on or around batteries.
reference
Whenever disconnecting battery terminals, always disconnect the ____ terminal first. When reconnecting, always connect the ____ terminal last.
ground
ground
The apparatus has a ___V negative ground electrical system. Before using jumper cables, make sure the booster vehicle also has a negative ground system
(negative terminal attached to a metal part of the vehicle).
12V
95/96 Jump Starting
To avoid damage to vehicle electronic components, voltage supplied to a vehicle’s electrical system must not exceed ___ volts.
16.0
95/96 Jump Starting
Connect the first jumper cable from the positive (+) terminal of the dead battery to the positive (+) terminal on the booster battery.
Connect one end of the second jumper cable to the negative (-) terminal on the booster battery, and the other end to the frame of the disabled vehicle at least __
inches away from the battery. Do not attach the other end directly to the battery negative (-) terminal because a spark could occur and cause an explosion of battery gasses.
With the jumper cables properly attached, start the engine of the vehicle with the good (charged) batteries. Run the engine at moderate speed (1000 to 1500 rpm).
Start the engine in the vehicle with the discharged batteries.
Now remove the battery jumper cables by reversing the above sequences exactly.
