  • Page 98 Starting and Stopping the Engine STARTING A DIESEL ENGINE WARNING: Operation of a diesel engine near flammable vapors in the air may cause the engine speed to increase uncontrollably and over speed. If this situation occurs, mechanical damage, fire, explosion, personal injury or death could result. Turning off the ignition key does not slow or stop the engine due to uncontrollable fueling of the engine through flammable vapors being drawn into the engine air inlet.

  • Page 101 1. Bring your vehicle to a complete stop on level ground and safely off the road with the exhaust system away from people, flammable materials, vapors or structures. Ford recommends that you perform a walk-around before beginning a parked regeneration.
  • Page 102 Starting and Stopping the Engine The engine speed may increase slightly. To allow parked regeneration to continue uninterrupted: 1. The vehicle must remain parked. 2. The transmission must remain in position P or N as previously described in Step 2. 3.
  • Page 103 Starting and Stopping the Engine Note: Blocked or plugged holes or modification to, or removal of, the outlet assembly could result in elevated exhaust temperatures that may result in vehicle or property damage or personal injury.

  • Page 104: Engine Block Heater

    Starting and Stopping the Engine ENGINE BLOCK HEATER (IF EQUIPPED) WARNING: Failure to follow engine block heater instructions could result in property damage or personal injury. WARNING: Do not use your heater with ungrounded electrical systems or two-pronged (cheater) adapters. There is a risk of electrical shock.
  • Page 105 Starting and Stopping the Engine Using the Engine Block Heater Make sure the receptacle terminals are clean and dry before use. To clean them, use a dry cloth. The heater uses 0.4 to 1.0 kilowatt-hours of energy per hour of use. The system does not have a thermostat.
  • Page 106: Fuel And Refueling

    Fuel and Refueling SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WARNING: Do not overfill the fuel tank. The pressure in an overfilled tank may cause leakage and lead to fuel spray and fire. WARNING: The fuel system may be under pressure. If you hear a hissing sound near the fuel filler inlet, do not refuel until the sound stops.

    Wheels and Tires TIRES Tire Inflation Information WARNING: Always maintain your tires in good condition. Frequently check and maintain correct inflation pressures as specified by tire manufacturers. Inspect periodically for abnormal wear patterns and repair/replace cut or broken tire casings. Always use experienced, trained personnel with proper equipment and correct procedures to mount or remove tires and wheels.
  • Page 245 Wheels and Tires WARNING (Continued) • Do not change from aluminum wheels to steel wheels or vice-versa without changing the mounting hardware where required or, in some cases with flange nut mounting systems, changing the hub and stud assembly. Mixing components could cause wheel or fastener failures and result in property damage, personal injury, or death.
  • Page 246 Wheels and Tires Stay out of the trajectory (1) as indicated in the illustration. WARNING: Do not mount tube type tires on tubeless wheels or tubeless tires on tube type wheels. To do so could result in tire or wheel failure and cause property damage, personal injury or death. Preserving proper inflation pressure is a very important maintenance practice to make sure safe vehicle operation and long life for the tires.
  • Page 247 Wheels and Tires Checking Tire Pressure Always check inflation pressure when tires are cold. Never bleed air from hot tires to relieve normal pressure build-up. Normal increase in pressure due to service conditions is 10–15 psi (69–103 kPa), which is allowable in truck tires.

Erosion wear: Also called rolling wear, channel or river wear, erosion wear occurs more often on free-rolling tires. This is an indication of using the tire in a slow wearing operation. What happens is that the belt plies are held very rigid and the tread is not allowed to distort as it passes through the contact area.
  • Page 251 Wheels and Tires WHEELS General Information Note: Remember to replace the wheel air valves when replacing the road tires at the end of their useful lives. Inspect, lubricate and adjust wheel bearings at regular intervals. This is especially important if operating in deep sand, mud or water. See the Capacities and Specifications chapter.
