To prevent death, serious injury, or property
damage, apply service brakes until the
Telehandler comes to a complete stop, move
travel select lever to NEUTRAL (N), set the
Parking Brake switch to ON (engaged), lower
and retract the boom, and shut off the engine before exiting
the Telehandler.
Shut Down Procedure
Failure to follow the correct shutdown procedure may
result in damage to the turbocharger and shorten the
turbocharger life.
1.
Park Telehandler on level ground, if possible.
2.
Stop the Telehandler by applying the service brake pedal.
3.
Place the travel select lever in NEUTRAL (N) and set the
parking brake to ON (engaged).
4.
Lower the boom and rest carriage on ground.
5.
Allow the engine to idle 3 to 5 minutes before shutting it
off after a full-load operation. This allows adequate cool
down of pistons, cylinders, bearings, and turbocharger
components.
NOTE: The engine is equipped with an electronic control
module (ECM). Ensure the Ignition Switch is turned off for a
minimum of 100 seconds prior to disconnecting the continu-
ous (unswitched) battery power supply. If the unswitched bat-
tery power supply is disconnected in less than 100 seconds
after the Ignition Switch is turned off active fault codes and
incorrect ECM information can occur.
6.
Turn the ignition key to OFF and remove the key.
7.
If the Telehandler is parked on an incline, block the wheels.
Refueling
open flames away from the Telehandler.
Operation Manual
Warning
Caution
Warning
Engine fuel is flammable and
can cause a fire or explosion
resulting in death or serious
injury. DO NOT smoke while
refueling and keep sparks and
•
Make sure the Telehandler is level to obtain an accurate
fuel level reading.
•
Shut off the engine.
•
Ground the fuel nozzle against the filler neck to avoid
sparks.
Fuel Types
Use ASTM #2 diesel fuel with a minimum Cetane rating of
40 for better fuel economy and performance under most
operating conditions.
•
Use standard #2 diesel fuel for operating at temperatures
above 32°F (0°C).
•
Use a blend of #1 and #2 diesel fuel ("winterized" #2 diesel)
for operating at temperatures below 32°F (0°C).
•
Fuels with Cetane ratings higher than 40 may be needed
in higher altitude or in an extremely low temperature
climate to prevent hard starts and excessive smoke.
Engine Protection System
The engine is equipped with an engine protection system. The
system monitors critical engine temperatures and pressures,
and logs diagnostic faults when an over or under normal con-
dition occurs. If an out-of-range condition exists and engine
derate action is to be initiated, the operator is alerted by an
in-cab WARNING lamp.
The STOP ENGINE Indicator blinks or flashes when out-of-
range conditions continue to worsen. The driver must pull to
the side of the road or to a safe area when it is safe to do so, to
reduce the possibility of engine damage.
NOTE: Engine power and speed will gradually be reduced,
depending on the level of severity of the observed condition.
The engine protection system will not shut down the engine
unless the engine protection shutdown feature has been en-
abled.
Pintle Hook
Death or serious injury could result from im-
proper operation when using tow connection.
Do not elevate boom above 30 degrees when
towing. Do not exceed rated tow capacity
(500 lbs vertical load, 5,000 lbs tow capacity.
The Pintle Hook is used for towing trailers and equipment, rat-
ed at or below 5,000 lbs maximum capacity. Failure to comply
with this capacity limitation, or elevating the boom above 30
degrees when towing could result in death or serious injury.
