VALVE GP-COUNTERBALANCE 2042667 - Caterpillar

UNLOCKED - Release the floor switch in order to unlock the differential. Lock the differential in order to increase the traction, as required.Make sure that the differential is unlocked when you turn the machine or when you articulate the machine. Also, make sure that the differential is unlocked when you are roading the machine.
Use of the differential lock when turning, articulating or roading may cause drive train component damage.
When one of the tandem wheels encounters loose surfaces or slippery surfaces, the differential lock will provide maximum traction. Wheel spin is minimized. Any excessive uncontrolled wheel spin can cause accelerated wear on certain components of the drive train. There is inadequate lubrication while the wheel is spinning.Do not engage differential lock control while one wheel is spinning. Decrease engine rpm until the wheel stops spinning. Anticipate using the differential lock before wheel slippage occurs.Controls under the steering wheel

Hazard Flashers - Pressing the left side of the switch will cause the turn signal lights to flash continuously. Rotating Beacon (33)
Rotating Beacon - Press the left side of the switch in order to turn on the rotating beacon. Starting Aid (34)
Starting Aid - Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Engine Starting" for the correct starting procedure with the glow plugs. Continuous Flow Control (35)
Continuous Flow Control - The continuous flow control supplies continuous flow of hydraulic fluid to the auxiliary hydraulic circuit without continuously holding the auxiliary hydraulic control. Move the auxiliary hydraulic switch to the desired flow rate. Press on the right side of the continuous flow switch. Immediately release the auxiliary hydraulic switch after you release the continuous flow switch. The continuous flow function will be activated if the operator releases the auxiliary hydraulic switch within one second of releasing the continuous flow switch. Press on either the auxiliary hydraulic control or the continuous flow switch in order to stop the flow to the auxiliary circuit. Auxiliary Circuit Control (36)
Auxiliary Circuit Control - This control provides continuous electrical power to the electrical connector (L) on the loader arm. The fifth function that is required on some work tools is activated. Press the right side of the switch in order to turn on electrical power. Press the left side of the switch in order to turn off electrical power. Auxiliary Hydraulic Control (C1/C2) (37)
