Preventive Maintenance
Road Testing the Vehicle
When operating the vehicle on streets and
highways while testing, ALWAYS have one
person drive while another performs the test.
Failure to do so may cause a collision, which
can result in serious injury or death.
WARNING
NEVER operate the starter without first
placing the transmission in NEUTRAL
and applying the parking brake. Failure to
follow these instructions may result in the
unintentional movement of the vehicle.
NEVER release or drive a truck on the
road that has a brake defect – no matter
how minor – until it has been repaired or
corrected. Failure to repair brake defects
can result in compromised braking and
lead to loss of control of the vehicle.
NEVER drive the vehicle without power
assisted steering. When the power assist
has failed, the effort required to turn the
steering wheel is much greater, especially
in sharp turns or at low speeds.
A speed retardation device (such as a
“Jake Brake
®
,” “C-Brake
®
” “Exhaust
Brake” or “Allison™ Retarder”) is not
intended to replace the service brake
system on the vehicle and cannot be
relied on to bring the vehicle to a stop. A
vehicle speed retardation device is only
intended to regulate the speed of the
vehicle under certain conditions.
WARNING
DO NOT EXCEED 15 MPH (24 KM/H)
WHEN TOWING TRAILERS.
Operating at speeds in excess of 15 mph
(24 km/h) may lead to loss of vehicle
control. NEVER take turns at excessive
speeds, this may cause the vehicle and
trailer to roll over.
The majority of roll over accidents are
caused by excessive cornering speed.
Roll over accidents may lead to serious
injury or death.
WARNING
Never tow trailers without BOTH the
service and emergency brake lines
connected to the trailer.
Never tow trailers without functioning
service and emergency brake systems.
Operating the vehicle while towing
trailers without functioning trailer brake
systems may lead to loss of control of the
vehicle, serious injury or death.
WARNING
Never tow a trailer above the minimum
height required to clear the landing gear
from the ground. Lifting the fifth wheel
and trailer too high drastically raises
the center of gravity of the trailer and
increases the chance of a roll over.
