Power Tire Pump

The conclusions drawn above regarding the Power Tire Pump may be incorrect.

We know that the cabs were different between 1533X2 and 1543X2, but these two different MCP cabs were more similar to each other than they were to a CMP cab.

The description in Driver’s Handbook CC60L-HB1 includes “...is controlled by a lever located on the running board valance to the rear of the front mudguard...the dust cap located to the rear of the control lever...disengage the clutch and pull out on the lever” (see first two images for complete text).

The comparable description in Driver’s Handbook C60L-HB1 (a normal CMP) includes “... is controlled from within the cab...the dust cap from the hose connection at the left frame side rail...insert a screwdriver...turn the shaft counter-clockwise to engage the gears.” (See last two images for complete text and image).

Are there any clearer images of the left running board valance on 1533X2 where we might be able to make out the control lever (knob)?
