AXLE DIFFERENTIAL LOCK
The differential lock switch locks out both the front
and rear differentials. This prevents the usual loss
of traction when one wheel is slipping.
There are two (2) differential lock control switches.
When using switch on side console:
1. Shift transmission to neutral.
2. Depress switch (A) on side console.
3. Differential lock indicator light on both switches
(B & D) will illuminate when axle is locked.

Lock the axles ONLY in

low traction conditions. Axle damage can result
if differential is operated in the locked mode all of
the time.
4. Depress switch on control panel again to unlock
both differential locks
081.05

When using switch on front console:

1. Shift transmission to neutral.
2. Depress switch (C) on front console.

Lock the axles ONLY in

low traction conditions. Axle damage can result if
differential is operated in the locked mode all of the
time.

3. Depress switch on dash panel again to unlock

both differential locks.
When differential lock is engaged, warning lamps on
both switches (B & D) will illuminate.

FRONT BOGIE AXLE LIFT OPERATION

(TK 458 ONLY)
1. Depress trigger button on front of steering joystick (E) to raise front bogie axle.
2. Release trigger button on front of steering joystick (E) to lower front bogie axle.

Lifting front bogie axle allows reduction in turning radius of machine.

BATTERY DISCONNECT MASTER SWITCH
The battery disconnect master switch (A) is located
in the LH engine compartment, and is designed to
prevent accidental starting of the engine while servicing machine, to prevent accidental battery drain,
and to deter vandalism.
Turn battery disconnect master switch OFF to disconnect the electrical system.

CAUTION

143.05

Do not turn master

disconnect switch off while engine is running. Doing so will cause loss of electrical power, resulting in personal injury or
property damage.
Turn battery disconnect master switch ON to connect the electrical system.
All systems will shut down if the battery disconnect
master switch is turned OFF.
Do not turn battery disconnect switch to the OFF position until at least 30
seconds after engine shutdown. This 30-second
delay allows the ECU time to store information. If
this is not done, some of the historical operating
parameter information will not be properly stored,
and fault codes will be generated.

147.05

Pro-Heat option remains

operational when battery master disconnect switch
is in OFF position.

BRAKE LOW PRESSURE INDICATOR

WARNING

Operating forwarder
with out brake pressure can cause serious personal injury or death.
Low brake pressure indicator (B) will illuminate and
an alarm will sound if brake pressure is lost. Do
not operate machine with brake low pressure indicator illuminated.
Indicator will shut off when brake pressure is at
specified level.

NOTICE

144.05

When engine is off, brake

pressure accumulator will discharge with each
depression of the brake pedal. After 5 depressions
light brake pressure is still available. After 8 depressions no brake pressure is available.

General Information

TRANSPORTATION
Failure to follow these important safety rules could result in serious
personal injury or death.

Remove any obstacles from trailer floor.

Load and unload machine on level ground.
Always use a ramp of proper height, loading angle and strength.
Engage trailer and truck brakes, and place wooden blocks around wheels.

13'6"
[4115 mm]
max

LOADING PROCEDURE
1. Before transporting, investigate road width, bridges, road and traffic conditions of planned
route, and governing laws and regulations.
2. Use a vehicle adequately sized for weight and dimension of machine.
3. Load and unload trailer with blade facing the direction of propel. Machine should be slowly and
carefully driven.
4. Be sure machine is in LOW gear. Drive machine up the trailer ramp. Make sure machine is
squarely centered in line with trailer bed.
5. Drive machine onto trailer.
6. Lower attachment to trailer bed.
7. Shut engine down and move controls to relieve all hydraulic pressure.
8. Engage parking brake.
9. Fasten chock blocks against all wheels.
10. Fasten each corner of the machine and attachments to trailer bed.
11. Remove key and lock cab. Once engine cools, install shipping/storage plate over exhaust pipe
outlet.
DO NOT wrap chains around machined surfaces. Travel vibration can
cause chain hammering. DO NOT place chains across grease fittings on axles. Doing so may
cause damage.
Be sure to remove shipping/storage plate before starting engine. Neglecting to do so will damage the engine.

WARRANTY FORMS
THE PURPOSE OF WARRANTY FORMS
One of the keys to good maintenance is a complete
service and repair record. The forms provided by
the Warranty Department will help you to build good
service & repair records on the PRENTICE and
HYDRO-AX machines that you service.
WARRANTY REGISTRATION FORM
The Registration Form (Fig. 1) is to be filled in at
time of delivery. One copy must be given to the customer and one sent to the Warranty Department. A
copy of this form must be on file in the Warranty Office before warranty coverage can be put into effect
on the machine.
INSPECTION CHECKLIST
The Inspection Checklist (Fig. 2) is to be filled in at
initial start-up (prior to demonstration and/or delivery) and again during the 50 100-hour check. A
copy of this form must be available to the Warranty
Office upon request.
WARRANTY SERVICE REPORT
A Warranty Service Report (Fig. 3) must be filled
in every time service is performed on a customers
machine during the Warranty period. A copy of this
form must be on file in the Warranty Office before
warranty coverage will be considered for any repairs.
