Operating the Transmission Release Bearing Wear When you must idle your engine for any period of time, shift your transmission to Neutral and disengage the clutch (take your foot OFF of the pedal). This helps prevent unnecessary wear to your clutch release bearing, and it is less tiring for you, too. Clutch Adjustment Inspect manual clutches according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. Regular maintenance should be followed to maintain correct clutch adjustment. Have your dealer’s Service Department perform any adjustment necessary. Tips • Always use the clutch when making upshifts or downshifts. • Always select a starting gear that will provide sufficient gear reduction for the load and terrain. • Never downshift when the vehicle is moving too fast. • Never slam or jerk the shift lever to complete gear engagement. • Never coast with the transmission in Neutral and the clutch disengaged. Operating Instructions • To provide smooth gear engagements while shifting, use proper coordination between shift lever and clutch. Operating Automatic Transmissions An automatic transmission makes shifting much easier, of course. But because your truck pulls a heavy load, it is important to use it efficiently. For correct automatic transmission operation, also see the transmission manufacturer's Operator’s Manual. • On most automatic transmissions there is no “PARK” position, so you will need to apply the parking brake before leaving the cab. See page 72. WARNING! Do not leave the cab without applying the parking brake. The truck could roll and cause an injury accident. Always apply the parking brake before you leave the cab. The MD Automatic Transmission The MD (electronic) Series of transmissions have four, five, or six forward speeds, a Neutral position, and one reverse speed. Pressing the appropriate button selects the desired gear—a beep will sound and the mode select window on the control unit will display the gear selected. – 68 – PB1318 3/01 Model <strong>330</strong>
Operating Instructions Operating the Transmission Vehicles equipped with the MD transmissions have various diagnostic features. They include a “DON'T SHIFT” light, plus diagnostic codes that appear in the digital display on the shift control unit, audible alarms that sound, and connections for hooking up a data reader (for service only). The “DON'T SHIFT” light (located on the dash) will come ON when the engine is first started, then go OFF after a few seconds. The transmission is automatically controlled by its Electronic Control Unit (ECU); therefore, if the “DON'T SHIFT” light comes ON during operation, the ECU has placed automatic controls on the transmission—canceling or ignoring your selections. Please see the transmission Operator’s Manual for further details. 01916 MD Automatic Transmission - Electronic Shift Selector Model <strong>330</strong> PB1318 3/01 – 69 –
