    One switch for truck taglift, the other with 3 wheels on it, is for lifting front axle on the trailer.
    You in US run 2 axle with dual tire trailers. We run 3 axle single tire. So if you're running empty or light, you can lift the first axle to reduce tire wear and fuel consuption.

I started in a 4x2 94P (4-series), then a 4x2 P360 and a 6x4 R580 (5-series) and now a 2020 R650 8x4 NextGen. Info: Approximately 99,9% av all new trucks in Norway have automatic gearbox type like Scanias Opticruise. You know what we say... there are only 2 types of trucks. Old and new Scania.

    It will do 12 miles to the gallon easy. Because your hearing is set up for 70mph & it’s just the tree are stir unit. Here in the U.K. trucks are geared for weight not speed & most loaded trucks a 110,000 lb or 44,000kg & set up for 56nph. They will run at 56 at 1350rpm
    Where as your was at 1100rpm at 70mph

    Way back before 9/11, I drove commercial motor coach in Ohio. As part of my training for the new company, I had to do a U.S./Canada border crossing at the Ambassador Bridge. On the coach was me (the trainee) and the trainer. The U.S. border agent was lonely and board! He held us for an hour while standing in the warm bus and talking our ear off. I kept looking in the rearview mirror and the traffic was just piling up behind us! He finally let us go. I guess he decided he had to get back to work.
    Another funny little story is when the U.S. and Canada were doing a joint military exercise. I had 55 U.S. marines on the coach. Each one of them had an automatic weapon (I want to say M-16, but it was so long ago now, and I was honestly not paying that much attention.) We had no ammunition on-board (except the senior enlisted/officer who did have a loaded pistol.). We were stopped at the border going into Canada, and the customs officer asked the standard two questions for back then, "Did you stop at the duty free store?" "No." "Do you have any firearms?" "Yes. A lot of them!" The Buffalo, New York customs border had about 300 buses crossing. The agent just looked at me, shook the cobwebs out of his head and said, "Go on."

      Detroit Diesel and Cat both made V-8 for their road tractor. We went to the inline 6 configuration for several reasons, one being ease of maintenance and better torque curve. They worked well enough and the DD was popular on up til the 80's.

    • @squidcaps4308

      Scania V8 is more about prestige and one upping Volvo, the other Swedish truckmaker. The moment Volvo puts out bigger and stronger engine, Scania has to go bigger to keep their "King of the Road" title... Volvo probably could ruin Scania, just by using their wealth to make a truck that is ridiculously powerful and have all the features imaginable, including helipad... because Scania would then have to make one with two helipads.

    I used to repair those speedometers back in the day in different country. It’s called tachograph and the one you have is a 1318 model. There is a way you can calibrate it electronically from inside of it and that’ll correct the speed, odometer count and more. That machine is not a simple speedometer. It graphs the speed, distance and the time of driving on a special paper chart that gets checked by authorities showing in a set distance the driver did or did not drive over the legal speed limits and driving time limits in 24 hrs. It is also the gateway for vehicle speed signal. The engine controller, transmission controller if applicable and retarder etc. use that signal for their operation. I thought it might be interesting to some people who might not know

    Hi Bruce, instead of cutting the exhaust off this one, try the long back and fore style like @TruckerTim and most of the euro style trucks, much louder and sounds much better with the V8 diesel, get that proper euro V8 crackle

      Look, what a coincidence that I am an aerodynamicist, I tell you, Stark is absolutely right, the extras in European trucks generate a lot of drag, especially the front grilles, since they use the concept of a drop of water, it is very important that where the flow of water begins. The air is completely clean, since it generates turbulence from the beginning, screwing up the total aerodynamics of the truck. That truck, with good maintenance, tuning and removing all that, will have much better fuel consumption. ​@@NFSGamerful

    Take care opticruse can be dangerous, once I so it happened with one mechanic, he started the truck in the shop and it's put it self to drive lucky the mechanic had enough situation awareness after the clutch didn't work he pressed hard break and that give hem enough time to turn off the engine, end don't go over the closed shop door which was 2-3 meter away.
    The other lift axle is for the trailer lift axle.
    You can adjust the tachograph to the tire size, I don't know how it's working but it has some dip switches on it if you want to make it precise.
