SPECIFICATIONS AND DATA
The following speci
fi
cations and data provide a quick
reference to the major characteristics of the transmis-
sion. More detailed information may be obtained from
Tech Data Book SA3018EN.
CAUTION:
When a transmission has been stored, the TCM
must be reset to unadapted shifts. Resetting to
unadapted shifts erases previous shift adapta-
tions and allows the transmission to begin using
Fast Adaptive mode to regain adapted shifts. Use
Allison DOC™ to reset to unadapted shifts.

Operation with excessive loads can cause trans-
mission damage and unexpected vehicle move-
ment. To help avoid injury, property damage,
and/or transmission damage, do not exceed
11 800 kg (26,000 lbs) GCW or the OEM vehicle
rating, whichever is less.
