While working on a vehicle:
Do not modify transmission components or systems. Modification (altering, substituting, relocating) of transmission components may result in major vehicle component damage, severe injury or death.
Do not modify transmission service tools. Modification (altering, substituting, relocating) of transmission service tools may result in major vehicle component damage, severe injury or death.
Read, understand and follow each statement regarding cap screw installation and torque specification requirements. Failure to install and torque cap screws to specification may result in major vehicle component damage, severe injury or death.
When working on vehicle components, keep body parts clear of sharp objects and pinch points. Failure to keep clear of sharp objects and pinch points may result in severe injury or death.
Use appropriate lifting devices and equipment when working with heavy vehicle components. Failure to do so may result in major vehicle component damage, severe injury or death.
Do not work on the vehicle immediately after operation. Working on a hot vehicle component could result in personal injury.
Compressed Air System
The vehicle air system operates approximately between 60 - 140 PSI. Refer to OEM guidelines regarding vehicle system operation and service. Failure to follow OEM guidelines may result in major vehicle component damage, severe injury or death.
Before starting a vehicle:
- Sit in the driver’s seat.
- Confirm vehicle parking brake is applied.
- Confirm Neutral is selected on the driver interface device.
- Ensure vehicle has adequate fuel level.
- Do not operate the vehicle if the Alternator lamp is on or if gauge indicates low voltage with the engine running.
When parking the vehicle or leaving the cab:
- Safely come to a complete stop.
- Continue to depress and hold service brake.
- Select Neutral on the driver interface device.
- Apply vehicle parking brake.
Apply vehicle parking brake and follow vehicle manufacturer parking instructions. Failure to follow these instructions could cause unintended vehicle movement and may result in major vehicle component damage, severe injury or death.
- Turn ignition key Off and allow the engine to shut to down.
Before working on a vehicle or leaving the cab with engine running:
- Safely come to a complete stop.
- Continue to depress and hold service brake.
- Select Neutral on the driver interface device.
- Apply vehicle parking brake.
Apply vehicle parking brake and follow vehicle manufacture parking instructions. Failure to follow these instructions could cause unintended vehicle movement and may result in major vehicle component damage, severe injury or death.
- Chock wheels.
To avoid damage to the transmission during towing:
When towing a vehicle equipped with the Endurant Series Transmission, do not allow the output shaft of the transmission to rotate. If the vehicle is towed with the drive wheels still in contact with the road surface, the vehicle axle shafts or driveline must be removed or disconnected prior to towing vehicle.
Internal transmission damage can result from improper vehicle towing.

After completing a transmission service procedure, ensure to complete the Configure Transmission Control Module (TCM) and/or Transmission Service Routines when directed.
Limited Driveline - Connected Towing
In an urgent situation, the vehicle may be towed after specific vehicle and transmission requirements are met at a limited road speed and distance with the driveline connected and the drive wheels in contact with the road surface.
Failure to follow the Limited Driveline - Connected Towing requirements listed below will result in transmission damage and voids the transmission warranty.
Vehicle and Transmission Requirements:
- Vehicle air pressure greater than 90 psi (620 kPa)
- Neutral (N) selected on the vehicle’s transmissions shift device
- Solid neutral (N) indicated in the vehicle’s transmission shift device display
- Solid neutral (N) indicated in the vehicle’s transmission gear display
- Key off
Limited Towing Speed and Distance Requirements
- Road speed less than 25 mph (40 km/h)
- Distance less than 0.25 mile (0.40 km)
Configure Transmission Control Module (TCM)
Perform Configure Transmission Control Module (TCM) after completing the following component replacement procedures:
- Transmission assembly replacement
- MTM assembly replacement
- TCM assembly replacement
Failure to perform the Configure Transmission Control Module (TCM) results in incorrect vehicle and transmission component serial number information.
Transmission Service Routines
Perform Transmission Service Routines when advised by Eaton Cummins and after completing the following procedure:
Failure to perform the Transmission Service Routines results in degraded transmission performance.
- Mechatronic Transmission Module (MTM) - XD MTM Service Removal Utility.
Prior to transmission removal, perform SeviceRanger Service Routine - XD MTM Service Removal Utility if MTM removal is required. Failure to perform Service Routine inhibits MTM removal and results in component damage.
Clutch and Rail Calibration
To ensure proper operation, the TCM, clutch, MTM and transmission require a Clutch and Rail Calibration. Calibrations are required after:
- Linear Clutch Actuator (LCA) replacement or re-installation
- Transmission replacement or re-installation (anytime the transmission is re-installed regardless of the service procedure performed)
- New Transmission Control Module (TCM) installation
Calibrations are automatically initiated when:
- “CC” in gear display
- LCA is in the reset position (or new TCM)
- Transmission in “N” (Neutral)
- Key on engine running
- Vehicle air system pressure at operating range
