,
The plates and decals must be kept clean and legible.
If any decal or plate becomes worn or unable to be
read, it should be replaced with a new one. Order
replacements by the part number shown at the bottom
of the plate or decal.
WA9741Caution decal is located inside the cab above
the windshield. It cautions the operator that the maxi-
mum brake oil temperature is 250
mum engine speed is 2350 RPM. Exceeding these
limits may result in vehicle damage. The graph pro-
vides speed guide lines to be used to maintain these
limits when descending various grades with a loaded
truck.
When descending a grade and applying the retarder
pedal, the operator should observe both the Tachome-
ter and the Brake Oil Temperature Gauge. The engine
RPM must be maintained at 1650 -- 2350 RPM (green
area on tachometer) and the Brake Oil Temperature
must be maintained below 250
If the operator observes that either of these values are
about to be exceeded, the operator should immedi-
ately move the transmission range selector to the next
lower range and apply the service brakes until the truck
is slowed to a speed which will permit the transmission
to downshift to the gear range selected.
