WARNING SUMMARY
The operator should never leave the cab without applying the
parking brake. Vehicle could roll away, causing serious personal
injury or damage to the vehicle.
Never use parking brake for normal braking. The wheels will lock
up, causing a severe skid. This could result in serious personal
injury, death of personnel, and/or extensive equipment damage.
Do not place tools or other solid objects under the driver's seat or
on the floor at driver's feet. Keep the area clean. Such items can
roll underneath the brake pedal, preventing brake application and
serious personal injury in case of accident.
Do not hold onto the winch cable if tension is required to guide the
cable back on the spool, the assistant will hold the clevis, not the
cable. Neither the operator nor assistant should stand within arms
length of the spool when the cable is being retrieved.
ix
TM 08780B-10
Do not reach into radiator fan area with engine running. The fan is
thermostatically controlled and may engage without warning
causing serious injuries.
x
TM 08780B-10
xi
TM 08780B-10
Do not handle winch cable unless necessary and never with bare
hands. Always wear leather gloves when handling cables. Never
allow cable to run through hands. Broken wires can cause injuries.
Do not operate winch with less than five coils of cable. Cable
clamp will not hold under direct strain.
Direct all personnel to stand clear of winch cable and load during
winching operation. A snapped cable or shifting load can be
extremely dangerous.
xii
TM 08780B-10
Keep boom clear of all electrical lines and other obstacles while
operating crane. Failure to comply may result in injury or death to
personnel.
Operator must keep control of load at all times. Attach guide lines
to load as required. Failure to comply may result in injury or death
to personnel.
Ensure that hook latch is closed and safety pin is installed before
attempting to raise load. A hook latch that is not closed and locked
in position could allow load to become disengaged from hook,
allowing load to fall. Injury or death could result.
xiii
TM 08780B-10
Ensure there are at least two wraps of cable on hoist drum at all
times. Failure to comply may result in injury or death to
personnel.
xiv
TM 08780B-10
Never inflate a tire without checking to ensure that the flange and
lock ring are still properly seated and the lock ring is properly
seated in the lock ring groove. Ensure that the flange, lock ring
and lock ring groove are not damaged. The lock ring and flange
may blow off during inflation/deflation resulting in serious injury
or death to personnel.
If the tire has been driven under inflated or over inflated, or there is
obvious or suspected damage on the tire or wheel components, the
tire must be completely deflated. To deflate the tire, remove the
valve core from the valve stem and stand out of the trajectory area
or personal injury or death may result.
xv
TM 08780B-10
xvi
TM 08780B-10
If the tire has been run flat, or is over or under inflated when tire
pressure measured and operating terrain is compared to Table 3-3,
or if wheel/tire assembly has obvious or suspected damage, it is not
safe to adjust tire pressure. Completely deflate the tire and remove
the tire from the axle. Failure to follow these procedures may
result in serious personal injury or death.

1 -14. AIR SYSTEM. The air system has two purposes. The
first is to operate the vehicle's service and parking brakes and the
second is to power the air operated accessories. The system is
divided into two sections-the front cab section and the rear trailer
section. Air pressure in both sections is indicated by a pressure
gauge in the cab.
1-29
TM 08780B-10
operated systems run off the six large reservoirs, unless pressure
drops to approximately 60 psi (413.7 kPa) when the brake system
The ignition switch has three positions (ON, OFF and START). In
the OFF position, electricity is confined to the lighting system. In
the START position, electricity is directed from the batteries
through a relay and a solenoid to the starter.
1-30
TM 08780B-10
The reservoir holds the hydraulic oil that supplies the system. The
pump draws oil from the reservoir to provide hydraulic pressure
for operation of front axle steering, yaw cylinder steering, the
auxiliary equipment and the fan motor. The various valves within
the system control hydraulic pressure, flow and direction for the
operation of the fan motor, steering system, or auxiliary hydraulics.
The fan motor provides cooling of engine, transmission and
hydraulic oil. A hydraulic selector valve mounted on the right
fender of the front power unit is a two position (Push/Pull) valve
used by the operator to determine whether oil flow goes to
STEERING or AUXILIARY HYDRAULICS. With the selector
valve in the STEERING position, the No. 1 axle will turn and the
yaw cylinders are operational. The vehicle is driven with the
selector valve in this position. With the selector valve in the-
AUXILIARY HYDRAULICS position, the auxiliary equipment
(crane, winch, or power tools) receive hydraulic power. Steering
at the No. 1 axle will still work, but yaw steering is not possible.
1-31
TM 08780B-10
The yaw steering system is responsible for turning the front power
unit at the articulation joint. This is accomplished through the use
of two double-acting, hydraulic yaw cylinders that connect to the
front and rear bodies on each side of the articulation joint. As one
cylinder contracts, the other extends. The front power unit is then
forced to turn, whether the vehicle is rolling or not. This reduces
turning radius and allows the vehicle to navigate among obstacles
that are relatively close together.
1-32
TM 08780B-10
NOTE
The yaw steering system will not operate with the parking brakes
applied and the transmission in neutral. If the yaw steering
system operates in this condition, notify Organizational
Maintenance.
A nose box mounted on the No. 1 axle receives power from the
transfer case and delivers it to the No. 1 axle. The No. 1 axle has
an inter-axle differential that sends power through a propeller shaft
to the No. 2 axle. In this way, all four wheels of the power unit are
driven.
The No. 3 axle of the trailer receives power from the transfer case
through a series of propeller shafts and universal joints. The No. 3
axle has an inter-axle differential that sends power through a
propeller shaft to the No. 4 axle. In this manner, all four wheels of
the trailer receive power.
1-33
TM 08780B-10
By using the Drive Line Lockup switch in the front power unit, the
operator can control parts of the drive line. On dry pavement, the
Drive Line Lockup is left in the UNLOCK position. This allows
the drive line to operate in a way similar to that of an ordinary
automobile. If traction is good, all drive wheels pull.

can lift 9,000 pounds (4,082.4 kg) when extended 15 feet (4.512
M) outward (see lifting capacity chart located at control panel for
further information). The crane is operated by hydraulics supplied
by the MK48/48A1 through the main control panel. The main
control panel provides the controls to manually operate all
functions of the crane and stabilizers. Each control is proportional.
The more pressure, the faster the selected crane movement.
Besides the main controls, the crane may also be operated by a
remote control unit with the same operating functions, except for
stabilizer controls, as the main control. Left and right stabilizers
are provided to stabilize, support and level the vehicle while the
crane is operating. An additional set of stabilizer controls is
provided, separate from the main control panel, on the left side of
the vehicle. Built within the hydraulic system of the crane are
several safety features that protect the equipment and operating
personnel. They are as follows:

The space within a run flat tire is almost entirely filled by two

metal sections. When a run flat tire loses air pressure it will start
to flatten and rupture the lubrication packets. This lubrication will
allow the run flat tire to operate for a limited time until it can be
repaired. Once the lubrication packets have ruptured, the run flat
tire must be repaired by Organizational Maintenance.
