Interior/Reading Lights

Front Of Cab

The cab is equipped with separate and com-
bined interior and reading lights in various
locations in the cab. The front seat overhead
lights can be turned on at any time using
the switch in the fixture. By turning the
switch the other way, the light will be acti-
vated by the cab door switches. Any time
the door is opened, the light will come on.

There is also a light on the inner front face
of the door that can be activated by the
switch or be set to come on when the door
opens. The lens is red so the light is used to
alert oncoming traffic from the rear that the
door is open. It is also used during night
driving to light up the floor area without
distracting the operator with a glaring light.

W3000974

The door switch operates all door-activated
lights. The switch is located in the rear part
of the door frame.

The switch has a shut off function that can
be used if the door needs to be open and
the lights should not be on. To deactivate
the lights, grasp the stem of the switch with
two fingers, push it in and twist clockwise.
The stem stays in and the light is off.
When the switch stem is pushed in and re-
leased, either by hand or by the door, it
will return to the normal working position.
