<Vehicles other than Crew-cab models>
NOTE:
A Crew-cab cannot be tilted.
1 Preparation
•
Park the vehicle on a flat and level surface and
stop the engine.
Tilting the cab on a slope is dangerous since the
cab could swing up unexpectedly. This could
also damage the mechanism because of the
huge, sudden stresses on it.
•
Prevent the vehicle from moving by pulling the
parking brake lever and blocking the wheels
with chocks.
•
In a manual transmission vehicle, put the gear
shift lever in the neutral position.
In an automatic transmission vehicle, put the
range selector lever in the “P” position.
•
Remove water or other liquids from inside the
cab before tilting.
•
Loose items left in the cab could fall and break
the windshield or other equipment. Take out or
safety stow all loose items before tilting the cab.
Any objects on the roof must be removed.
•
Close both doors completely.
Tilting the cab
WARNING
•
Before tilting or lowering the cab, make
sure that the area around the cab is clear
of people and obstructions.
•
Never tilt the cab when the vehicle is on
any kind of slope. The cab will move too
quickly under the effect of inertia if it is
tilted on a slope, possibly causing damage
to various vehicle components. Doing so
is dangerous as the hook may not engage
completely when the cab is lowered.
•
Never tilt the cab with persons inside.
•
The cab can drop suddenly if it has heavy
objects inside or is fitted with a roof deck.
You should be sufficiently aware of this for
your safety.
•
Do not touch the steering wheel, gearshift
lever, parking brake lever, or any other
control in the cab while the cab is tilted.
