Brake-Shift Interlock (Workhorse and Ford
Chassis)
Workhorse and Ford chassis are equipped
with a brake-shift interlock safety feature. The
shift lever cannot be moved from the Park posi-
tion unless the ignition is ON and the service
brake pedal is pressed.
NOTE: On Ford chassis, if the brake light fuse is
blown, the interlock feature will not work
properly and an alternate method must
be used. See your Ford Owners Guide
for detailed instructions on what to do in
this situation.
PARKING BRAKES
Ford or Workhorse Chassis:
The parking brake pedal is located to the left
of the foot service brake.
To set the parking brake, press the service
brake pedal firmly with your right foot while you
apply the parking brake with your left foot. The
BRAKE warning light will go on as soon as you
start to press the parking brake pedal. The brake
will not prevent the vehicle from moving unless
you push it down firmly and fully. Remove your
foot from the service brake pedal and make
sure there is no vehicle movement.
To release the parking brake, apply the service
brake with your right foot and hold the parking
brake pedal down with your left foot while you
pull the release lever. The release lever is located
above the brake pedal.
Never drive your vehicle with the parking
brake set as this will reduce parking brake effec-
tiveness and cause excessive wear.
HAZARD WARNING LIGHTS
See chassis manual or "Instrument Panels" in
this section for location of hazard flasher switch.
See also Section 3 for further operating informa-
tion.
FUEL PUMP SHUT-OFF SWITCH
(Ford Chassis Only)
Vehicles built on Ford chassis are equipped
with an inertial type switch that shuts off the fuel
DRIVING YOUR MOTOR HOME
pump in the event of collision. This switch must
be manually reset to resume the fuel supply to the
engine.
See your Ford chassis operating guide for lo-
cation and reset procedures for this switch.
NOTE: It is possible to accidentally trigger the
fuel pump shut-off switch by abruptly
striking an object such as a curb or park-
ing block. If your vehicle exhibits symp-
toms of running out of fuel immediately
after such an occurrence, the fuel pump
shut-off switch may need to be reset.
Consult your chassis operating guide for
additional information.
