Foot Brake Pedal
The foot brake pedal, is located to the right of the steering column, it is
for operation with the right foot only. It works similar to the brake in an
automobile. Applying pressure to the brake pedal slows the vehicle
according to the amount of pressure applied. Relieving pressure from
the pedal releases the braking action.
Park Brake
The parking brake is actuated with a hand lever, which is located to the
right of the driver. To set the parking brake, push down on the brake
pedal and pull the lever up until it locks. To release the park brake, depress
the foot brake pedal, pull up on the park brake handle, push the release
button, and lower the handle.
Accelerator Pedal
The accelerator pedal is located to the right of the brake pedal. It controls
the speed of the vehicle and operates similar to the accelerator pedal in
an automobile. Depress the pedal to increase speed and release the
pedal to decrease speed.
Battery Status Indicator, Digital Bargraph
(optional)
The battery status indicator is located to the left of the
hour meter. The battery status indicator has a LED bar
graph that indicates the relative state of charge of the
battery. The top LED will light only when connected to a
fully charged battery or after completing a charging cycle.
Successive lower LED’s will light as the battery charge
diminishes. When the second from the bottom LED
flashes the battery energy status is in energy reserve
and should be placed on charge as soon as possible.
When the two bottom LED’s are alternately flashing the
batteries are empty and the truck should be taken out of
service and charged to avoid damaging the batteries.
The BSI will reset to fully charged only after a complete
charge cycle is completed. A complete charge cycle is
defined as battery voltage exceeding 2.35 volts per cell
for a minimum of 6 minutes.
