Operation
•
External contact - Flush with water.
•
Eyes - Flush with water (including under the eyelids) for
at least 15 minutes and get medical attention immedi-
ately. Flushing must begin immediately to avoid per-
manent eye tissue damage.
•
Internal contact - Drink large quantities of water or milk
to dilute stomach contents. Do not induce vomiting.
Get medical attention immediately.
IMPORTANT - In case of internal contact, DO NOT give fluids
that induce vomiting.
Wear eye protection when starting a
Telehandler with jump start cables. Improper
jump start procedures could cause the
battery to explode, which could result in
death or serious injury.
•
Never jump start a frozen battery, as it can explode. Let
the battery thaw out before charging.
•
NEVER jump start the Telehandler when travel select le-
ver is in gear, which can cause the Telehandler to lurch
forward or backward, and could result in death, serious
injury, or property damage.
•
To avoid injury or death when jump starting with an-
other Telehandler, make sure the two (2) Telehandlers
are not touching.
•
DO NOT allow jump start cable ends to contact each
other.
•
Connect charged battery positive (+) to stalled battery
positive (+).
•
Connect charged battery negative (–) to stalled Tele-
handler ground. Make the connection to the stalled
Telehandler ground last.
•
Connect jump start cable to stalled Telehandler ground
a safe distance from the battery to prevent sparks near
the battery.
Release the key immediately once the motor starts. If the
motor does not start, DO NOT crank the starter motor con-
tinuously for more than 15 seconds. Failure to release the
key after the motor has started or continuous cranking can
damage the starter motor.
•
Jump start only with a power source with the same volt-
age as the stalled Telehandler.
•
Turn off all lights and accessories on the stalled
Telehandler to prevent them from operating when the
power source is connected.
Warning
Caution
•
Remove the jumper cables in reverse order of their
connection (i.e. negative cable ground first, etc.)
•
Electrolyte contains acid and could cause serious
personal injury if it contacts the skin or eyes.
NOTE: If the engine fails to start on the first try, wait until the
engine and starter come to a complete stop before cranking
the engine again.
After Extended Shutdown Or Oil Change
Follow the Normal Starting Procedure in this section. The en-
gine will not start until the minimum cranking oil pressure is
detected by the ECM. It can take more cranking time to start
the engine after an extended shut down or oil change.
Do not idle for extended periods of time. Excessive idle time
can cause poor engine performance.
Operating the Engine
Monitor the oil pressure and coolant temperature gauges fre-
quently. Shut off the engine if any pressure or temperature
does not meet the specifications. Continuous operation with
engine coolant temperature above or below the engine cool-
ant temperature specifications can damage the engine.
If an overheating condition starts to occur, reduce the power
output of the engine by releasing the accelerator pedal or le-
ver or shifting the transmission to a lower gear, or both, until
the temperature returns to the normal operating range. If the
engine temperature does not return to normal, shut off the
engine, and refer to Troubleshooting Symptoms, or contact a
Cummins® Authorized Repair Location.
Warning Indicators
A fault condition may trigger a pop-up dialog
box on the display describing the nature of
the fault during operation. Corresponding
red or amber warning lights will illuminate to
indicate the severity of the fault. If an Engine
Shutdown fault condition is present, stop the Telehandler,
follow proper shut down procedures, tag the Telehandler
with "Do Not Operate" tags, and have a qualified mechanic
