the gear teeth. This may damage the PTO unit and the transmission PTO
drive gear teeth, resulting in further damage to the transmission and
PTO.
PTO Operation with Vehicle Stationary
WARNING:When the PTO is operated with the vehicle
stationary, the transmission must be placed in positionNwith the
parking brake set. If the transmission is not in positionNand is
equipped with a remote throttle control, an increase in engine speed
can overpower the parking brake and cause the vehicle to move,
possibly resulting in personal injury and/or property damage.
Stop your vehicle, idle the engine and set the parking brake. Make sure
the gear selector is in any forward drive range, and then engage the
PTO. After engaging the PTO, move the range selector to positionN.
Increase the engine speed until reaching the desired PTO operation
speed. To disengage the PTO after operation with your vehicle standing,
release the throttle, allow the drive equipment to come to a stop, and
then disengage the PTO.
PTO Operation while Vehicle Is Moving
After engaging the PTO for driven vehicle operation, shift to the desired
range and drive your vehicle. The speed of the PTO, during this period
of operation, always maintains direct relation to vehicle speed. PTO
speed decreases in relation to vehicle (transmission output) speed as
shifts to a higher gear occur. When operating the PTO while your vehicle
is moving, the PTO may be disengaged whenever it is no longer required.
When there is no load on the PTO gear, you can pull it out of
engagement.
Vehicles Equipped with an Allison 3000 Series Automatic
Transmission
The PTO drive gear is engine-driven and provides direct engine power.
You can operate the PTO when your vehicle is either stationary or
moving. The PTO gear is in constant mesh with the drive gear in the
torque converter housing. A friction clutch or constant drive transmits
power to the PTO.
Vehicles Equipped with a Manual Transmission
Transmission-mounted PTO units are available for local installation on
your vehicle. See yourBody Builder’s Layout Bookfor restrictions on
use and installation of PTO units.

You can lock and unlock the differential when your vehicle is moving at a
constant speed of less than 25 mph (40 km/h) and while the wheels are
not slipping. Do not lock the differential when your vehicle is traveling
down steep grades and traction is minimal.
The differential lock and differential lock light automatically disengage at
speeds above 25 mph (40 km/h). The differential lock remains off until
either you restart your vehicle or you turn the differential lock switch off
then back on.
Turn the engine off and raise all drive wheels of the locker differential
axle in order to prevent your vehicle from moving when servicing the
wheels, tires or brakes. Axles equipped with a NoSPIN Detroit Locker
differential deliver power to both wheels even when only one wheel is on
the ground.
WARNING:Failure to raise all drive wheels with this type of
differential could cause the vehicle to move unexpectedly,
resulting in property damage, personal injury or death.
Take care to avoid sudden accelerations when both drive wheels are on a
slippery surface.
WARNING:Sudden accelerations on slippery surfaces could
cause the wheels to spin, the vehicle to turn sideways on a
crowned road surface or in a turn, possibly resulting in loss of vehicle
control and personal injury.
Fluid Temperature
Axle operating temperatures normally do not exceed 100°F (38°C). If
the operating temperature exceeds 230°F (110°C), the rate of axle
lubrication oxidation increases and shortens the life of the lubricant and
seals, requiring axle lubrication changes to become more frequent to
preserve the axle. Do not consistently run extreme pressure (EP)
lubricants above 230°F (110°C).
Axle Conversions
WARNING:When operating a loaded vehicle, the driver must
keep all adjustable axles on the ground at all times, supporting
their share of the vehicle’s load. Failure to do so can overload other
axles, tires, wheels, springs, steering components, brakes and frames,
resulting in early component failure, loss of vehicle control, possible
property damage and personal injury.

GENERAL INFORMATION
All standard equipment brakes self-adjusting. Automatic adjustment,
when required, occurs whenever you apply and release the brakes during
forward or reverse operation.
Note:Occasional brake noise is normal. If a metal-to-metal, continuous
grinding or continuous squeal sound is present, this may indicate worn
brake linings. Have them inspected by an authorized dealer. If your
vehicle has continuous vibration or shudder in the steering wheel while
braking, an authorized dealer should inspect the vehicle.
Know the required stopping distances for all driving conditions you may
encounter. For longer brake lining life, take full advantage of engine
braking power when coming to a stop.
WARNING:Do not drive with your foot resting on the brake
pedal. This results in abnormally high brake temperatures,
excessive lining wear and increased stopping distances.
Before descending a long or steep hill, shift to a lower gear and avoid
continuous application of the brakes. Normally, choose the same gear to
descend the hill that you use to ascend the hill.
WARNING:Continuous application of the brakes causes the
brakes to overheat, resulting in a temporary loss of braking.
See theInstrument Clusterchapter for information on the
brake system warning light.
Wet brakes result in reduced braking efficiency. Gently press the brake
pedal a few times when driving from a car wash or standing water to dry
the brakes.
If Brakes Do Not Grip Well
•If you have been driving through deep water, gently apply the brakes
several times while your vehicle is moving slowly.
•Let the brakes cool if you have been using them excessively, as in
mountain driving or after several fast, high-speed stops.
•Check brake adjustment.
•Check brake linings for excessive wear.
•Check system air pressure on vehicles equipped with air brakes.

Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
This system helps you maintain steering control during emergency stops
by keeping the brakes from locking.
The ABS lamp momentarily illuminates when you switch on the
ignition. If the light does not illuminate during start-up, if it
remains on or flashes, the ABS may not be working and
requires servicing.
If the ABS is disabled, normal braking is still effective. If the
brake warning lamp illuminates, have your brake system
serviced immediately.
If you connect a PLC trailer with the ignition on, the trailer
ABS light also illuminates. If the light fails to illuminate, if it
remains on after you start the vehicle or continues to flash,
have the system serviced immediately.
FULL POWER BRAKE SYSTEM
WARNING:If the red BRAKE warning lamp in the instrument
cluster remains illuminated after engine start up, this indicates a
system failure in the Full Power Brake System. Stop the vehicle safely
as soon as possible and seek service immediately.
This system incorporates standard braking, an anti-lock braking system
(ABS) and optional Power Park Brake into one fully integrated hydraulic
brake system. With the Full Power Brake System, braking energy is
stored, similar to an air brake system, resulting in faster response times
and shorter stopping distances. This is accomplished using motor and
pump assemblies that pressurize the system by pumping brake fluid into
accumulators. This is similar to the air compressor of an air brake system
pressurizing the air tanks. The system includes a master cylinder that
provides the normal pedal feel and transfers the pedal force, via brake
fluid, to the main components of the system.
Note:The motor and pumps run momentarily with the ignition switch in
the on or run position, or in the off position with the brake pedal
pressed.
Note:During normal driving, you may hear the pump and motors
replenishing the accumulators. This is a normal function of the system.
AIR BRAKES
After starting the engine, give the air compressor time to build up the air
pressure to 60 psi (414 kPa) before moving your vehicle.

WARNING:Do not drive or continue to drive if the low air
pressure buzzer is sounding or the brake warning light is lit.
These warnings indicate that air pressure is not to normal operating
level. Continued use of the vehicle could result in loss of braking ability.
WARNING:Avoid repeated light application of the brake pedal.
This depletes air pressure faster and could result in loss of
braking capability.
Periodically check the air pressure
gauge while driving. Pressure should
range between approximately
100–125 psi (690–862 kPa). The air
compressor governor cut-in and
cutout pressure settings are set at
the factory and are not adjustable.
When air pressure is insufficient (below 60 psi [414 kPa]), a
warning light illuminates and a buzzer sounds when the ignition
is in the on position.
This may happen because excessive brake applications are depleting the
system air pressure. If this condition occurs, stop driving your vehicle
until the compressor has fully recharged the air system.
WARNING:Do not move the vehicle when the air pressure is
insufficient because the brake system may be inoperative.
Select a gear ratio to help slow your vehicle before descending grades.
Supplementing with brakes, as required, help to safely slow the vehicle
and avoids overspeeding the engine.
Air Chamber Stroke Indication
Air chamber push rods have orange stroke indicator markers that warn
when the braking system requires adjustment or repair. The painted
orange indicator is on the air chamber push rod at the slack adjuster
stroke dimension that requires service when visible during brake
application.

HINTS ON DRIVING WITH ANTI-LOCK BRAKES
When the system is operating, the brake pedal pulses and may travel
further. Maintain pressure on the brake pedal. You may also hear a noise
from the system. This is normal.
The ABS does not eliminate the dangers inherent when:
•You drive too closely to the vehicle in front of you.
•Your vehicle is hydroplaning.
•You take corners too fast.
•The road surface is poor.
EXHAUST BRAKE (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING:The exhaust brake is not recommended for use on
slippery or low traction road surfaces. Under these conditions a
loss of vehicle control could occur.
Note:Installing an exhaust or auxiliary brake does not necessarily
protect the engine from exceeding maximum governed speed. Use the
primary brakes to make sure the engine never exceeds maximum
governed speed under any conditions.
Note:Before starting the engine, make sure that the exhaust brake
switch is in the off position. Do not turn the exhaust brake on until the
engine has reached normal operating temperature.
Note:Maximum exhaust brake performance relates to the type of
transmission your vehicle has.
Note:Engine speed has a major influence of retarding performance.
When engine speed is stays at the maximum allowable level, the exhaust
brake operates at peak performance.
Note:Manual transmissions should be downshifted to the lowest gear
possible, without exceeding the maximum RPM limit of the engine. This
maximizes the exhaust brake’s retarding effect.
Note:Exhaust brakes operate effectively with automatic transmissions,
but performance varies with engine speed and the gear selected by the
transmission.
An exhaust brake is an auxiliary braking system that assists, but does
not replace, the primary service brake system. It helps control vehicle
speed; it is not a vehicle-stopping device.

A switch on the instrument panel,
in combination with the accelerator
and clutch pedal, allows the
operator to make maximum use of
the exhaust brake in the following
conditions:
•Off-highway driving
•Mountain driving
•Heavy traffic
•High-speed highway driving.
To switch the brake on, push the switch up. Push the switch down to
turn it off.
While approaching a steep grade, make sure that the exhaust brake
switch is in the on position. The exhaust brake begins working as soon as
you remove your foot from the accelerator pedal.
Before descending a hill or steep grade, always select the proper gear. If
you take the transmission out of gear while descending, it is possible that
you cannot select another gear because of maximum governed RPM.
Make sure the engine speed does not exceed the maximum allowable
engine RPM. Exceeding the maximum allowable engine RPM can result
in damage to the engine. Apply the service brakes to reduce the engine
RPM or make a slower descent by using a lower gear.
While going down the grade, use a low enough gear to descend safely
with a minimum application of the service brakes. As a general guideline,
use the same gear as you use to ascend the hill.
Exhaust Brake Operating Characteristics
The exhaust brake turns on when you remove your feet from both the
accelerator and clutch pedals and the exhaust brake switch is in the on
position. The following conditions exist if the brake is operating properly:
•A slight change in engine sound when the exhaust brake turns on.
•A smooth braking effect. Do not expect a retarding effect similar to
sudden, hard application of the service brakes.
•The retarding force possibly felt acting against your body during
brake application (depending on the grade and vehicle load). This
force is actually preventing the vehicle from going much faster.
•Engine temperature remaining in the normal operating range.
•The tachometer showing a drop in engine RPM (depending on grade
and vehicle load) during a descent.

Note:Read and understand the following steps and perform them
whenever you prepare to drive the vehicle.
Note:The parking brake does not disengage unless sufficient system air
pressure is available.
If your vehicle is equipped with a dash-mounted push button (Allison
3000 Series) or steering column-mounted (Allison 2200 and 2500) gear
selector:
1. Press and hold the service brake pedal while the engine is running.
2. Select the appropriate drive gear.
3. Push and hold the yellow, dash-mounted parking brake knob until the
parking brake light turns off, then release.
If your vehicle is equipped with a manual transmission:
1. Press and hold the service brake pedal while the engine is running.
2. Press and hold the clutch pedal.
3. Select the appropriate drive gear.
4. Push and hold the yellow, dash-mounted parking brake knob until the

Parking Brake Light Illumination Due to Low Air Pressure
If the air pressure becomes too low at any time during vehicle operation,
the parking brake may apply and the parking brake light turns on.
If the parking brake applies due to low air pressure, immediate service is
required to the parking brake system.
Parking Brake Warning System
If the parking brake light blinks and a tone sounds when pulling the
yellow control knob out, this indicates the parking brake is not
functioning properly. Seek service for the parking brake immediately.
With the ignition key not in the run position:
•A tone sounds if the parking brake remains released (or in an
unknown state). The tone stops in approximately eight minutes or
until the parking brake is applied. Seek service for the parking brake
immediately.
Diesel engines:Parking brake light operation (the light only works
when the ignition key is in the run position):
•On:Parking brake applied.
•Off:Parking brake released and no faults or malfunctions.
•Blink and tone:Parking brake released (or in an unknown state)
and faults or malfunctions exist.

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
The traction control system helps avoid drive wheel spin and loss of
traction.
If your vehicle begins to slide, the system applies the rear brakes to
individual wheels and, when needed, reduces engine power at the same
time. If the wheels spin when accelerating on slippery or loose surfaces,
the system reduces engine power in order to increase traction.
Note:The system does not apply the brakes when vehicle speed is
above 25 mph (40 km/h).
USING TRACTION CONTROL
WARNING:Aggressive driving in any road conditions can cause
you to lose control of your vehicle increasing the risk of severe
personal injury or property damage. The occurrence of a traction
control event is an indication that at least some of the tires have
exceeded their ability to grip the road; this may lead to an increased
risk of loss of vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal injury and
death. If you experience a severe road event, SLOW DOWN.
Press the switch to select Off Road
or Mud/Snow traction mode. This is
beneficial when your vehicle is
stuck in snow or on a slippery road
surface. This mode allows excess
wheel spin to dig your vehicle out
and allows you to rock your vehicle.
Press the switch again to select standard traction control. The system
automatically selects standard traction control at the next ignition cycle.

System Indicator Light
Note:If the traction control light does not flash during a traction control
event or stays illuminated, the system is not functioning properly. Take
your vehicle to an authorized dealer for service.
During traction control operation, the traction control light
flashes rapidly and the engine does not rev-up when you press
further on the accelerator. This is normal and is no reason for
concern.
In Off Road or Mud/Snow mode, the traction control light illuminates and
flashes slowly. If a traction event occurs, in either mode, the light flashes
rapidly.
