Engine starting (with parking brake applied)
Safety and
emergency
equipmentBefore entering the cab, verify that the vehicle is
equipped with spare electrical fuses (if used),
three red reflective triangles, a properly charged
and rated fire extinguisher and wheel chocks.
Walk around the vehicle and verify all steps and
grab handles, inside and out (as well as behind),
are tight and clean. Use extreme caution and a
three-point stance at all times.
Inspect door latches for proper closing, latching
and locking.
Starting the
engineSet the parking brake. If starting a vehicle with a
manual transmission, press the clutch and verify
the transmission is in neutral. If starting a vehicle
with an automatic transmission, make sure the
gearshift lever is in positionNorP(if equipped
with a park position).
Diesel engine:Turn the key to the on position.
Turn the key to start when the wait to start
indicator light in the instrument cluster turns off.
Gasoline engine:Turn the key to start, and
then release it as soon as the engine starts.
Engine oil
pressureVerify pressure builds to normal operating range.
Low air pressure
warning tone (if
equipped with an
air compressor)A tone indicating low air pressure should sound
immediately after the engine starts but before the
compressor has built-up pressure. The tone
should stop when the air pressure reaches 70 psi
(483 kPa) (or more). Let the air pressure build
to governed cutout pressure, which should occur
between 115–130 psi (793–896 kPa).
AcceleratorPress the accelerator and verify that it operates
smoothly, without any binding or irregular feel.
Release the pedal and verify the engine returns
to idle speed immediately.
VoltmeterCheck the gauge (diesel engine) or indicator light
(gasoline engine) to verify the alternator is
charging.

Engine starting (with parking brake applied)
Steering linkage
free playInspect for excessive free play in the steering
linkages. The steering wheel should have less
than 2 inches (5 centimeters) of free play at its
rim.
Full power
hydraulic brake
inspectionPump the brake pedal several times with the
ignition in the off or run position. You can
momentarily hear the motor and pumps
replenishing the accumulators.
Parking brakeVerify the parking brake holds the vehicle by
gently trying to pull forward with the parking
brake applied.
Air brakesVerify operation using the following procedure.
Chock the wheels, if necessary. Push in the
parking brake and, on tractors, push in the
tractor parking brake knob:
1. Verify the air compressor or governor cutout
pressure is approximately 120 psi (827 kPa).
2. Turn off the engine, and then turn the key
back to the on position (without starting the
engine).
3. Without the brake pedal applied, note the air
pressure drop for one minute. It should be less
than 2 psi (14 kPa) for single vehicles and 3 psi
(21 kPa) for combination vehicles.
4. Press and hold the brake pedal with 90 psi
(621 kPa) or more. Make sure there is no more
than a 3–psi (21 kPa) per minute leak for single
vehicles and a 4–psi (28 kPa) per minute leak for
combination vehicles.
5. Pump the brake pedal to deplete the system of
air pressure. The warning light and tone should
turn on at 57 psi (393 kPa).
6. Pump the brake pedal and make sure the
parking brake and trailer parking brake knobs
pop out at 20 psi (138 kPa) or higher.
Automatic
transmission fluidVerify that the fluid level is in the proper
operating range. SeeTransmission fluid check
in theMaintenancechapter.

Trailer
If you are pulling a trailer, perform an inspection of the trailer similar to
that of the tractor. The inspection should follow trailer manufacturer
recommendations and should include at a minimum: general condition,
landing gear, doors, sides, lights, reflectors, suspension, brakes, tires,
wheels, cargo placement, stability and tie-downs.
Transmission
WARNING:If the unit starts in gear and/or the neutral start
switch is not functioning correctly, the vehicle may inadvertently
move which could result in property damage, personal injury or death.
If your vehicle is equipped with an automatic transmission, regularly
inspect the transmission’s neutral start switch. The engine should only
start in positionNorP.
Inspect the transmission fluid level and shift linkage for proper
operation.

Deactivating and Activating the Belt-Minder® Feature
WARNING:While the design allows you to deactivate your
Belt-Minder®, this system is designed to improve your chances of
being safely belted and surviving an accident. We recommend you leave
the Belt-Minder® system activated for yourself and others who may use
the vehicle. To reduce the risk of injury, do not deactivate or activate
the Belt-Minder® feature while driving the vehicle.
Read Steps 1-4 thoroughly before proceeding with the deactivation or
activation programming procedure.
The system can be deactivated and activated by performing the following
procedure:
Before following the procedure, make sure that:
•the parking brake is set
•the gearshift is in positionP(if equipped) orNfor an automatic
transmission or neutral for a manual transmission
•the ignition is off
•all vehicle doors are closed
•the driver’s safety belt is unbuckled
•the parklamps and headlamps are off.
1. Turn the ignition on. (DO NOT START THE ENGINE.)
2. Wait until the safety belt warning light turns off (approximately one
or two minutes).
•Steps 3–5 must be completed within 60 seconds after the safety
belt warning light turns off, or the procedure has to be repeated.
3. Buckle then unbuckle the safety belt three times at a moderate
speed, ending with the safety belt in the unbuckled state.
4. Turn on the parklamps and headlamps, then turn them off.
5. Buckle then unbuckle the safety belt three times at a moderate
speed, ending with the safety belt in the unbuckled state.
•After Step 5, the safety belt warning light turns on for three
seconds.
6. Within seven seconds of the light turning on, buckle then unbuckle
the safety belt.
•This disables the Belt-Minder® feature if it is currently enabled.
•This enables the Belt-Minder® feature if it is currently disabled.
Confirmation of disabling Belt-Minder® is provided by the safety belt
warning light flashing four times per second for three seconds.

Engine Oil Pressure Gauge
Indicates engine oil pressure. The needle should stay in the normal
operating range. If the needle falls below the normal range, stop the
vehicle, turn off the engine and check the engine oil level. Add oil if
needed. If the oil level is correct, have your vehicle checked at an
authorized dealer.

Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge
Indicates engine coolant temperature. At normal operating temperature,
the level indicator is in the normal range. If the engine coolant
temperature exceeds the normal range, stop the vehicle as soon as safely
possible, switch off the engine and let the engine cool.
WARNING:Never remove the coolant reservoir cap while the
engine is running or hot.
Transmission Fluid Temperature Gauge
Indicates transmission fluid temperature. At normal operating
temperature, the level indicator is in the normal range. If the
transmission fluid temperature exceeds the normal range, stop the
vehicle as soon as safely possible and verify the airflow is not restricted,
such as snow or debris blocking airflow through the grill. Special
operating conditions, such as snowplowing, towing or off-road use, can
also cause higher than normal operating temperatures. Internal
transmission damage may occur if you operate the transmission for
extended periods with the gauge in the higher than normal area.
Changing the severity of the driving conditions may help lower the
transmission temperature into the normal range. If the gauge continues
to show high temperatures, see an authorized dealer.
Fuel Gauge
Indicates approximately how much fuel is in the fuel tank (when the
ignition is on). The fuel gauge may vary slightly when your vehicle is
moving or on a grade. The fuel icon and arrow indicates which side of
the vehicle the fuel filler door is located.
Information Display
Odometer:Located in the bottom of the information display. Registers
the accumulated distance your vehicle has travelled.
