Installation Requirements Cooling Requirements Oil-To-Water Transmission Cooling System With Remote Bypass For certain applications, the recommended transmission cooler routing is to bypass the engine thermostat system. With this type of cooler routing, transmission oil temperature is more directly related to engine temperature. Listed below are conditions which may require the use of a thermostat bypass: Under certain conditions, such as extreme cold temperature operation or extended periods of low speed oper- ation, the engine alone may not generate the amount of heat required to open the thermostat.

Electrical Requirements Body Builder Guide For Tapping into Electrical Systems Body builder electrical systems that are to be interconnected with the Fuller UltraShift ASW electrical system should adhere to the latest recommendations of SAE J1292. In addition to SAE J1292, the following recommendations should be followed. All wiring terminals should be properly insulated to prevent “short circuits”.
Page 57
Electrical Requirements Body Builder Guide For Tapping into Electrical Systems, Cont. The fuses and circuit breakers installed at the assembly plant are designed to protect the wiring and electrical components from overloads. Never remove a factory installed fuse or circuit breaker and replace it with a high value device. If the added electrical device causes “fuse blow”, or circuit breaker cycling, it indicates the total load is too high for the factory installed circuit protec- tion and requires revisions in the added circuit: not fuse or circuit breaker size.

Features Auto Neutral Feature Electrical Interface Requirements All devices mounted on the vehicle that require Auto Neutral function from the Fuller UltraShift ASW transmission must provide an electrical interface with the transmission. A switch must be used to activate the Neutral mode of the trans- mission.
Features Power Take-Off “Countershaft Driven” Electrical Interface Requirements All countershaft driven Power Take-Off’s mounted on Fuller UltraShift ASW Transmissions must provide an electrical interface with the transmission. The PTO mounted switch is used to activate the PTO operating mode of the transmis- sion.
Features Power Take-Off “Split shaft” PTO input must be a normally open switch. The switch must close to ground whenever the PTO is activated. This input (active when pin F1 is shorted to ground) activates the split shaft PTO mode of the transmission. This feature uses pin F1 of the 18-way transmission connector.
Eaton recommends the use of this system to maintain the utmost in satisfactory operation and long service life. Each Fuller UltraShift ASW system installed at the OEM must pass the on line check list requirements per the Eaton line inspection Form 4013-002 prior to shipment from the OEM plant.
Line Inspections Line Inspection, continued Checklist Instructions Refer to the line inspection form (4013-002) while performing the following procedure. Note: All information must be filled in at top of the form. Pre-Start Checks The following tests must be performed in one of three ways. By visually observing the power up procedure.
Begin with the switch in the on position. Turn the key off and back on six times within five seconds (off/on/off/on/off/on/off/on/off/on/off/on). 14. Verify engine ECU contains proper configuration settings for Fuller UltraShift operation. The engine ECU must contain the proper configuration settings. For proper engine configuration settings required for Fuller UltraSh- ift operation, contact Eaton OEM Engineering Support Group.
