DRIVING YOUR MOTOR HOME
REPLACEMENT FUEL CAPS
To protect gasoline system from excessive
pressure or vacuum, or from sudden pressure, re-
place lost caps with caps of the same design
available from your dealer.
STARTING AND
STOPPING ENGINE
Refer to your chassis operating guide for the
manufacturer's recommendations on starting and
stopping the engine.
Brake-Shift Interlock (Workhorse Chassis)
Workhorse chassis are equipped with a brake-
shift interlock safety feature. The shift lever can-
not be moved from the Park position unless the
ignition is ON and the service brake pedal is
pressed.
PARKING BRAKES
Models on Ford Chassis
The parking brake pedal is located to the left
of the service brake pedal.
To set the parking brake, press the service
brake pedal firmly with your right foot while you
apply the parking brake with your left foot. The
BRAKE warning light will go on as soon as you
start to press the parking brake pedal. The brake
will not prevent the vehicle from moving unless
you push it down firmly and fully. Remove your
foot from the service brake pedal and make sure
there is no vehicle movement.
To release the parking brake, apply the service
brake with your right foot and hold the parking
brake pedal down with your left foot while you
pull the release lever. The release lever is located
above the brake pedal.
Never drive your vehicle with the parking
brake set as this will reduce parking brake effec-
tiveness and cause excessive wear.
PARKING BRAKE (30 ft. & 32 ft. Models on
Workhorse Chassis)
This chassis is equipped with an automati-
cally applied parking brake that actuates when
the shift lever is moved to the Park position.
NOTE: Parking brakes may also be applied by
pulling outward on a large, diamond-
shaped knob on the dash to the right of
the steering column. Push the knob in to
release the parking brakes.
