Turn Signal, High Beam and Emergency Flasher
Control
The column-mounted control on the Kalmar tractor has three
functions. It is located on the left-hand side of the steering
column (Figure 14).
1. Moving the lever (Figure 14, B) forward activates the right
turn signal. Moving the lever to the rear activates the left
turn signal. The turn signal is not self canceling and must
be returned to the center (OFF) position manually after it is
engaged. The green arrows on the dash panel light up and
flash when the switch is activated.
2. The button on the end of the lever operates the high beam
lights (Figure 14, A). The headlights must be on for the
switch to work. When the high beam headlights are on, the
high beam indicator on the dash will light up.
3. The pull out switch under the lever activates the emergency
flashers (Figure 14, C). Pulling out on the switch turns the
flashers on. To turn the flashers off, move the turn signal
lever forward or backward.
