1 Preparation
•
Park the vehicle on a level surface and shut
down the engine.
•
To prevent the vehicle from moving, set the
parking brake and chock all the tires.
•
<manual transmission> Put the shift lever in
neutral.
<automatic transmission> Put the shift selector
in “P” (park).
•
Remove any containers of 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. Before tilting
the cab, remove or secure all loose items.
Remove any objects from the roof.
•
Make sure both doors are tightly closed.
•
Do not touch the steering wheel, shift lever,
parking brake lever, or any other control in the
cab while the cab is tilted .
•
Before tilting the cab, make sure there is ade-
quate clearance in front of the cab and above it
(see table), and that the area is free of people
and all objects.
•
If there are any obstructions within the clear-
ance areas shown above, remove them.
•
Retract the radio antenna.
Tilting the cab
WARNING
•
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 compo-
nent damage and personal injury. In addi-
tion, the hook may not engage completely
when the cab is lowered.
•
To prevent injuries, never tilt the cab with
persons inside.
•
The cab can drop suddenly, causing a per-
sonal injury, if there are heavy objects
inside, or it is equipped with a roof deck.
Clearance in front 3.3 ft. (1 m) or more
Clearance above 3.3 ft. (1 m) or more
