Kenworth has launched the Body Builder Academy Training video series for the company’s T880 vocational truck.
The six Body Builder Academy videos focus on connectivity with Kenworth chassis systems, PTO functions, integration of electronics between body and truck, and optimization of the driver interface for body functions through switches and dash messaging.
Each video focuses on specific topics such as basic switch configuration, switch learn process, PTO mode and interlock functions, and programming in Paccar Vehicle Pro. The video also goes over Kenworth’s new advanced electronic system architecture.
“This video series is an excellent resource for body builders. The videos are short and easy to understand, and are designed to help body builders integrate their equipment with Kenworth electronic and chassis systems, as well as PTO functions,” said Kurt Swihart, Kenworth marketing director.
The video series is currently available on the Kenworth YouTube channel and will soon be available on the Kenworth Essentials App, which can be downloaded to smartphones and tablets from the Apple Store or Google Play Store by searching Kenworth.
The companies also said they plan to coordinate deployment planning across priority freight corridors and define routes and operational design domains for U.S. commercial service while laying the groundwork for expansion into key European markets.
