Operating Procedures
3-2 Stainless Max Series Pumps
4. Shift the truck
transmission to
the NEUTRAL
position. See
Figure 3-1:
“Driver’s Com-
partment Indica-
tor Lights.”
CAUTION !
NEVER ATTEMPT TO
SHIFT THE PUMP
TRANSMISSION WHILE
THE TRUCK TRANSMIS-
SION IS IN GEAR. ALWAYS SWITCH THE TRUCK TRANSMISSION TO
“N” AND VERIFY THE SPEEDOMETER IS ZERO “0” BEFORE MAKING
PUMP TRANSMISSION SHIFT. (SEE FIGURE 3-1: “DRIVER’S COMPART-
MENT INDICATOR LIGHTS.")
5. Engage the PTO. (Move the in-cab pump shift control valve from
the ROAD position to the PUMP position. Within a few seconds
the shift warning indicator lights, indicating a complete shift.)
Note: If the truck manufacturer has used another in-cab valve to
achieve pump shift or has an electric switch, follow the instructions
supplied with that valve.
6. After pump shift has completed, place the truck transmission in
the proper pump operating range or gear.
For most operation conditions, this will be direct drive (1:1) ratio.
In addition, the speedometer should read 5 MPH to 15 MPH (8-
15 KMH) after the shift has been completed.
7. If the shift does not complete, shift truck transmission to “N” and
repeat the entire procedure.
Note that some vehicles drive the speedometer from the front
wheel of the chassis. In this case, the speedometer will not read
5 to 15 MPH after shifting to the PUMP position. See the truck’s
chassis manual for details.
WARNING !
DO NOT LEAVE THE CAB OR ATTEMPT TO PUMP UNTIL ALL THE
GREEN PUMP LIGHTS IN THE CAB AND PANEL ARE ON.
