LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Cummins has released a series of training tools for drivers, which the company says will help them maximize their fuel efficiency.

Among the new training materials is an audio CD specifically for drivers.

The CD addresses topics and engine features such as loadbased speed control and geardown protection. It also discusses the Cummins aftertreatment system.

More in-depth training is available through the new Cummins Driver Training DVD. The DVD is designed to be viewed on a driver’s individual schedule. It addresses issues such as driving for fuel economy, electronic features, trip information as well as a more detailed look at the Cummins aftertreatment system.

Also included in the suite of training tools is a driver tip card which includes fuel-saving techniques as well as an overview of dash lamps and switches found in trucks fitted with Cummins EPA07 engines.

“Cummins is committed to delivering the right technology and dependable support to our customers to help them achieve maximum operating efficiency from their Cummins engines,” said Jeff Jones, vice-president, sales and market communications with Cummins.
