2024 FORD F650/750 weight

following the US TireManufacturers Association(USTMA) recommended repairprocedures. Plug-only repairsdone on-the-wheel are consideredimproper and therefore, notrecommended. Such repairs arenot reliable and may cause furtherdamage to the tire.
STORAGE
Tires contain waxes andemollients to protect their outersurfaces from ozone and weatherchecking. As the tire rolls andflexes, the waxes and emollientscontinually migrate to the surface,replenishing this protectionthroughout the normal use of thetire. Consequently, when tires situnused for long periods of time (a
month or more) their surfacesbecome dry and more susceptibleto ozone and weather checkingand the casing becomessusceptible to flat spotting.Forthis reason, tires should alwaysbe stored in a cool, dry, clean,indoor environment. If storageis for one month or more,eliminate the weight from thetires by raising the vehicle or byremoving the tires from thevehicle. Failure to store tires inaccordance with theseinstructions could result indamage to your tires orpremature aging of the tiresand sudden tire failure.
When tires are stored, be sure theyare placed away from sources ofheat and ozone such as directsunlight, hot pipes and electricgenerators. Be sure that surfaceson which tires are stored are cleanand free from grease, gasoline orother substances, which coulddeteriorate the rubber. Failure tostore tires in accordance withthese instructions could result indamage to your tires or prematureaging of the tires and sudden tirefailure.
FOLLOW THESE MOUNTINGRECOMMENDATIONS
Tire changing can be dangerousand must be done byprofessionally trained personsusing proper tools and
procedures as specified by theUS Tire ManufacturersAssociation (USTMA). Singleor dual assemblies must becompletely deflated beforedemounting.
Your tires should be mounted onwheels of correct size and typeand which are in good, cleancondition. Wheels that are bent,chipped, rusted (steel wheels) orcorroded (alloy wheels) maycause tire damage. The inside ofthe tire must be free from foreignmaterial. Have your retailer checkthe wheels before mounting newtires. Mismatched tires and rimscan explode during mounting.Also, mismatched tires and rimscan result in dangerous tire failure

AUXILIARY SWITCHES (IF
EQUIPPED)
For maximum vehicle performance, keepthe following information in mind whenadding accessories or equipment to yourvehicle:
•When adding accessories, equipment,passengers and luggage to yourvehicle, do not exceed the total weightcapacity of the vehicle or of the frontor rear axle (GVWR or GAWR asindicated on the Safety ComplianceCertification label). Ask an authorizeddealer for specific weight information.
•The Federal CommunicationsCommission (FCC) and CanadianRadio TelecommunicationsCommission (CRTC) regulate the useof mobile communications systemsequipped with radio transmitters, forexample, two-way radios, telephonesand theft alarms. Any such equipmentinstalled in your vehicle should complywith Federal CommunicationsCommission (FCC) and CanadianRadio TelecommunicationsCommission (CRTC) regulations, andshould be installed by an authorizeddealer.
•An authorized dealer needs to installmobile communications systems.Improper installation may harm theoperation of your vehicle, particularlyif the manufacturer did not design themobile communication systemspecifically for automotive use.
•If you or an authorized Ford dealer addany non-Ford electrical or electronicaccessories or components to yourvehicle, you may adversely affectbattery performance and durability. Inaddition, you may also adversely affectthe performance of other electricalsystems in the vehicle.
The auxiliary switch option packageprovides four switches, mounted in thecenter of the instrument panel. Theseswitches operate when the ignition is onor from battery power, depending on theswitchable power distribution box fuselocations #82 and #83. We recommend,however, that the engine remain runningto maintain battery charge when using theauxiliary switches for extended periods oftime or higher current draws.
Note:When your vehicle has a dieselengine, use the auxiliary switches only whilethe engine is running. The glow plugs alsodrain battery power when the ignition key isin the on position. Using the auxiliaryswitches, even for limited amounts of time,can cause your battery to drain quickly andprevent your vehicle from restarting.
When switched on, the auxiliary switchesprovide 20 amps or 40 amps of electricalbattery power for a variety of personal orcommercial uses.
The relays for the auxiliary switches are inthe power distribution box under the hoodby the right-hand fender. See yourauthorized dealer for service.
Each switch includes a power lead, ablunt-cut and sealed wire below theinstrument panel and to the left of thesteering column in the driver footwell area.
The power leads are coded as shown:

As required
Replace the engine-mounted and frame-mounted fuelfilters.Every 15,000 mi(24,000 km), six months or600 engine hours
Inspect the coolant concentration, freeze-point protectionand additive, corrosion inhibitor strength. Add coolantadditive if necessary.
Every 30,000 mi(48,000 km) or 1200 enginehours
Flush and refill the coolant. Do not add coolant additive.Every 60,000 mi(96,000 km) or 2400engine hours
