Do not turn off the battery disconnect switch until the indicator lamp has turned off. If the switch is turned off when the indicator lamp is illuminated the Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) system will not purge the DEF. If the DEF does not purge, DEF could freeze and damage the pump and lines. |

|
Never move the battery disconnect switch to the OFF position while the engine is operating. Serious damage to the electrical system could result. |
Note: Do not turn off the battery disconnect switch until indicator lamp (2) has turned off. If the battery disconnect switch is turned off when the indicator lamp is illuminated, the DEF system will not purge and DEF could freeze and damage the pump and the lines.

Battery Disconnect Switch (1) - When the battery disconnect switch is in the OFF position, the 24V electrical system is disabled. When the battery disconnect switch is turned to the ON position, the battery remains connected to the entire 24V electrical system. |
|
ON - To activate the 24V electrical system, turn the battery disconnect switch clockwise to the ON position. The battery disconnect switch must be turned to the ON position before starting the engine. |
|
OFF - To deactivate the 24V electrical system, turn the battery disconnect switch counterclockwise to the OFF position. |
Turn the battery disconnect switch to the OFF position. Place a padlock on the switch to secure the switch in the OFF position.
Turn the battery disconnect switch to the OFF position. Place a padlock on the switch if the machine is not in operation for an extended period of a month or more. Placing a padlock on the switch will prevent the battery from being discharged. The following problems can cause battery discharge:
- Short circuits
- Current draw via some components
Note: The battery disconnect switch does not release hydraulic pressure from the secondary steering system or hydraulic pressure from the automatic retarder control system. To release the hydraulic pressure, move the engine start switch to the OFF position. Doing this procedure will activate a solenoid valve to release the hydraulic pressure from the accumulators.
