CAB INSTALLATION
Cab installation is the reverse of the fore- going
removal procedure. No special adjustment is required
for cab to frame mounting bolts and nuts other than the
application of specified torques. Connect all wiring
harnesses, plumb- ing and controls. Start engine and
check all systems and controls before returning truck to
service.
LUBRICATION
Cab hardware and other mechanisms require a
periodic application of lubricant to increase service life
and prevent objectionable squeaking. New cabs are
lubricated at factory and before they are delivered to
customer. After the cab is placed in service, regular
lubricating intervals based on type of service should be
established. Thorough lubrication at definite intervals
adds greatly to cab service life and reduces overall
expense.
For specified lubrication intervals refer to
Operators Manual
Wipe off all lubricant points before applying new
lube to prevent lube contamination. Apply lube sparingly
and wipe away excess.
