2015 FORD F650 technical specifications

If an overfill occurs, excess fluid
should be removed by a qualified
technician.
Note:An overfill condition of transmission fluid may cause shift or
engagement concerns or possible damage.
Do not use supplemental transmission fluid additives, treatments or
cleaning agents. The use of these materials may affect transmission
operation and result in damage to internal transmission components.
Manual Transmissions
Note:Use of a non-approved transmission fluid may cause internal
transmission component damage.
See theScheduled Maintenancechapter for scheduled intervals for
fluid checks and changes.
Your manual transmission may have an optional synthetic fluid that
allows the use of extended service intervals. A tag on the filler plug
identifies the use of the synthetic fluid.
Only use fluid that meets manufacturer specifications. SeeTechnical
specificationsin theCapacities and Specificationschapter.
Checking Fluid Level
1. Park your vehicle on level ground.
2. Set the parking brake, shift into first gear and turn the engine off.
3. Clean any dirt from around the filler plug.
4. Remove the filler plug and inspect the fluid level. The fluid level
should be at the bottom of the filler plug opening.
5. Add fluid, if necessary, through the filler plug opening.
6. Clean and install the filler plug securely.
Changing Fluid
Drain and refill your transmission fluid while it is warm.
1. Park your vehicle on level ground.
2. Set the parking brake, shift into first gear and turn the engine off.
3. Clean any dirt from around the filler and drain plugs.
4. Remove the filler plug and drain plug, and then drain the fluid into a
suitable container. Dispose of all used automotive fluids in a
responsible manner following your local authorized standards.
5. Clean and install the drain plug securely.
6. Add fluid through the filler plug opening.
7. Clean and install the filler plug securely.

FUEL FILTER
Gasoline Engine
Your vehicle is equipped with a lifetime fuel filter that is part of the fuel
tank. You do need to perform regular maintenance or replace it.
Diesel Engine
WARNING:Do not drain water separator while engine is
running. Fuel may ignite if separator is drained while engine is
running or vehicle is moving.
The fuel filter water separator removes any contaminated particles and
water from the fuel before the fuel enters the engine.
See your engine operator’s manual for information on draining and
replacing the fuel filter.
WASHER FLUID CHECK
WARNING:If you operate your vehicle in temperatures below
40°F (5°C), use washer fluid with antifreeze protection. Failure
to use washer fluid with antifreeze protection in cold weather could
result in impaired windshield vision and increase the risk of injury or
accident.
Add fluid to fill the reservoir if the level is low. Only use a washer fluid
that meets Ford specifications. SeeTechnical specificationsin the
Capacities and Specificationschapter.
State or local regulations on volatile organic compounds may restrict the
use of methanol, a common windshield washer antifreeze additive. Only
use washer fluids containing non-methanol antifreeze agents if they
provide cold weather protection without damaging your vehicle’s paint
finish, wiper blades or washer system.
CHANGING THE VEHICLE BATTERY
WARNING:This vehicle may be equipped with more than one
battery, removal of cable from only one battery does not
disconnect the vehicle electrical system. Be sure to disconnect cables
from all batteries when disconnecting power. Failure to do so may
cause serious personal injury or property damage.

Note:Make sure the tire valve stem clears the brake caliper when
installing the tire and rim assembly on disc-brake equipped axles. The
use of a tire manufacturer’s stem forming tool is the only acceptable
method of obtaining clearance when necessary.
Proper Torque
It is important to tighten and maintain wheel and rim mounting nuts to
the proper torque. Loose nuts or over-tightened nuts can lead to
premature wear and possible failure of the wheel or mounting hardware.
Changing Wheel Types
WARNING:Use only the same type and style wheels and
mounting hardware to replace original parts. Failure to do so may
result in an assembly that looks fine, but does not fit together properly.
This could possibly cause wheel or fastener failures which could result
in property damage, personal injury or death.
Note:Do not attempt to mix stud-piloted wheels or fasteners with
hub-piloted wheels or fasteners.
Note:Do not change from aluminum wheels to steel wheels or
vice-versa without changing the mounting hardware required or, with
flange nut mounting systems, changing the hub and stud assembly.
Consult your dealer or wheel or rim distributor before attempting any
wheel or fastener changes.

Wheel Lug Nut Torque Specifications
Note:Do not use lubrication on dry threads. Where excessive corrosion
exists, you can apply a light coat of lubricant on the first three threads
of the stud bolt. Keep lubricant away from the:
•Hex nut and rim clamp contact surfaces.
•Cap nut ball face and ball seat on the disc wheel.
•Flange nut washer surface and flat on the disc wheel.

After first 500 and 1000 miles (800
and 1600 km), then every 500 and
1000 mile (800 and 1600 km)
interval after tire removal or
replacement.Tighten the wheel mounting nuts
