WARNING
Keep steps clean. Clean any fuel, oil,
or
grease off the steps before entering
the cab or accessing the deck plate.
Stepping on a slippery surface can
cause a fall which may result in death
or personal injury.
WARNING
When you are climbing onto and off
the
deck plate, maintain at least three
points of contact with your hands on
the grab handles and your feet on the
steps. Always face toward the vehicle
when entering or exiting the cab and
look where you are going. Failure to
comply may result in death or personal
injury.
WARNING
When stepping onto a surface to enter
the
cab or access the deck plate, only
use the steps and grab handles instal-
led and designed for that purpose.
Failure to use the proper steps and
grab handles could cause a fall which
may result in death or personal injury.
NOTE
Any alteration (adding bulkheads,
headache
racks, tool boxes, etc.) be-
hind the cab that affects the utilization
of installed grab handles, deck plates,
or frame access steps should comply
with Federal Motor Carrier Safety Reg-
ulation 399.
How to Open the Hood
The hood is secured in its closed position
by external latches, called Hold-downs,
located on both sides of the hood. These
Hold-downs keep the hood from opening
