Operation
Split Shifting
Combined Axle and Transmission Shift
To Downshift the axle to a slower ratio and upshift or downshift
the transmission, shift the transmission and just before the
clutch is re-engaged, move the control switch to the slower ratio
position.
To Upshift the axle and downshift or upshift the transmission,
move the control switch to a faster ratio position and make the
transmission shift in the usual manner.
NOTE: In all axle upshifts, move the control switch to position
first. When split shifting to a slower axle ratio, do not move the
control switch until just before re-engaging the clutch.
Axles and Suspensions
Gross Weight (Axle – Vehicle)
WARNING
Do not exceed the truck’s gross axle weight,
gross vehicle weight, and gross combination
weight ratings.
Exceeding these ratings by
overloading
can
cause
component
failure
resulting in property damage, personal injury, or
death.
Axle Operating Temperature
Normally, axle operating temperature will not exceed more than
100ºF (38ºC) above ambient temperature. However, intermittent
operation (5 percent of time) at higher temperatures under
extreme loads (long pulls) will not harm the axle. Operating
temperatures above 230ºF (110ºC) significantly increase the
rate of lubricant oxidation and shorten the effective life of the
lubricant and seals, making more frequent changes necessary.
Extreme Pressure (EP) lubricants should not be run consistently
at temperatures above 230ºF (110ºC).
Front Axle (4X4, 6X6)
WARNING
To prevent vehicle damage, personal injury or
death, pay strict attention to the following:
Should it be necessary to operate the rear wheels
(with engine power) with the vehicle stationary
and the rear wheels raised from the ground,
first disengage the front axle, otherwise the front
wheels will pull the vehicle off its support. Always
chock front wheels under these conditions.
