Auxiliary Circuit (8)

Auxiliary Circuit - Push the rocker switch to the top position in order to activate the auxiliary electrical connector. The auxiliary electrical connector is located on the inner face of the right fender below the hydraulic tank. A 24 volt temporary duty light may be connected to the 2-pin connector. A 15 AMP breaker protects the circuit. The breaker is located on the dash panel.

Note: The auxiliary circuit also serves as the switch for the rotating beacon. This circuit is provided for machines that are delivered to Europe.

Starting Aid (9)


Starting Aid - The Electronic Control Module controls the ether starting aid. The Electronic Control Module will allow a shot of measured ether to be injected into the engine air intake of the machine up to ten times per minute. When the speed of the engine exceeds 1200 rpm, the Electronic Control Module of the engine will not allow the injection of ether. When the temperature of the engine oil exceeds 10°C (+50°F), the Electronic Control Module of the engine will not allow the injection of ether. If the "crank without inject fuel" plug is active, the Electronic Control Module of the engine will not allow the use of ether. The starting system has two modes. The modes are automatic and manual.

Automatic Mode The Electronic Control Module automatically activates the ether solenoid. A programmed schedule considers engine speed and engine oil temperature.

Manual Mode Push the top of the rocker switch for the starting aid and release the top of the rocker switch for the starting aid in order to manually inject ether. A measured amount of ether will be injected.


NOTICE

Only inject the ether while you are cranking the engine. Use the ether sparingly. Excessive ether can cause piston damage and ring damage. Ether should only be used for the purpose of cold weather starting. Use ether when temperatures are below 0°C (+32°F). Refer to the Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Engine Starting" for further information.


Engine Start Switch (10)


OFF - Inserting the engine start switch key and removing the key must only be done from the OFF position. In the OFF position, there is no power to most electrical circuits in the cab. The cab lights, the panel lights, the tail lights, and the dome light are operational even when the start switch is in the OFF position.

Turn the start switch key to OFF in order to stop the engine.


ON - Turn the start switch key clockwise to ON in order to activate all cab circuits.


START - Turn the start switch key clockwise to START in order to crank the engine. Release the key after the engine starts. The key will return to the ON position.

Service Brake Pedal (11)


Applying the Brake Pedal - Push the brake pedal downward in order to apply the service brakes. Use the brake pedal in order to slow the machine and stop the machine. Use the service brakes on a downgrade in order to prevent overspeed. The service brakes are especially needed when you change directions on a steep slope.


Releasing The Brake Pedal - Release the brake pedal in order to allow the machine to move. Release the brake pedal in order to increase the ground speed.

Decelerator Pedal (12)

Decelerator Pedal - Push down on the pedal in order to override the throttle control. This will reduce the engine speed. Use the pedal in order to reduce the engine speed when you make a directional shift.

Fan Control (13)


The Fan Speed Switch for the Heating and for the Air Conditioning - The fan speed switch controls the four-speed blower fan motor.



Off - Move the switch to the left position in order to stop the blower fan.

Move the switch clockwise in order to operate the blower fan.


Low - Move the switch to this symbol for the lowest fan speed.


Medium Low - Move the switch to this symbol for a medium low fan speed.


Medium High - Move the switch to this symbol for the medium high fan speed.


High - Move the switch to this symbol for the maximum fan speed.

Heating and Air Conditioning Switch (14)


Heating - Turn the blower fan switch to LOW, MEDIUM LOW, MEDIUM HIGH, or HIGH speed. Adjust the temperature variable control for the desired temperature.


Air Conditioning - Activate the air conditioning system. Turn the blower fan switch to LOW, MEDIUM LOW, MEDIUM HIGH, or HIGH speed. Adjust the temperature variable control for the desired temperature.


Pressurizing - When heating or cooling is not desired, pressurize the cab in order to prevent dust from entering.

Turn the temperature variable controls to a comfortable stage. Turn the blower fan switch to LOW, MEDIUM LOW, MEDIUM HIGH, or HIGH speed. Use the fan speed that is needed to keep out the dust.


Defogging - Activate the air conditioning system. Turn the blower fan switch for the air conditioner to LOW, MEDIUM LOW, MEDIUM HIGH, or HIGH speed. Use the fan speed that is needed to remove moisture from the air in the cab. This prevents moisture from forming on the windshield and the windows. Adjust the temperature control until the moisture level is lowered. Adjust the temperature control until the temperature of the cab is comfortable.

Temperature Control (15)


Temperature Variable Control - Turn the knob anywhere between OFF position (left) and MAXIMUM position (right). This will control the amount of heating and the amount of cooling.

In order to set the engine speed at less than HIGH IDLE, depress the decelerator pedal until the engine is running at the desired engine speed. Press the front end of the throttle control for two seconds. The engine speed will not increase. In order to return the engine speed to LOW IDLE or to HIGH IDLE, press the throttle control.
