Cab Door Locks and Handles
One common key operates the ignition switch and all
of the door locks.
IMPORTANT: Each key is numbered. Record
the number so a duplicate key can be made, if
needed.
To unlock the driver’s door from outside the cab, in-
sert the key in the lockset and turn it one-quarter turn
clockwise. See
Fig. 2.1 . To remove the key, turn it
counterclockwise to the original position. Pull out on
the door pull handle to open the door.
To unlock the passenger’s door from outside the cab,
insert the key in the lockset and turn it one-quarter
turn counterclockwise. Turn the key clockwise to the
original position to remove it.
NOTE: The cab door locks can be operated
when the doors are open.
To lock a door from outside the cab, insert the key in
the lockset and turn it in the direction opposite to the
unlocking direction (counterclockwise for the driver’s
door, clockwise for the passenger’s door). Close the
door if it is open.
To lock either door from inside the cab, push the lock
button downwards. See
Fig. 2.2 .
To open the door from the inside, lift up on the door
lever. This will unlatch the door whether or not it is
locked.
To unlock the door without unlatching it, pull the lock
button upwards.
Grab Handles and Access
Steps
WARNING
Wet or dirty shoe soles greatly increase the
chance of slipping or falling. If your soles are wet
or dirty, be especially careful when climbing
onto, or down from, the back-of-cab area.
Always maintain three-point contact with the
back-of-cab access supports while entering and
exiting the back-of-cab area. Three-point contact
means both feet and one hand, or both hands
and one foot, on the grab handles, steps, and
deck plates. Other areas are not meant to sup-
port back-of-cab access, and grabbing or step-
ping in the wrong place could lead to a fall, and
personal injury.
Be careful not to get hands or feet tangled in
hoses or other back-of-cab equipment. Careless-
ness could cause a person to trip and fall, with
possible injury.
