Try:

M /A3FD,VOL=(SL,WRKC14),USE=PUBLIC   <--- note the "slash"

In its infinite wisdom, MVS thinks that A3FD is a system esoteric device 
name.  originally, the system only allowed for 3-digit addresses; so, when 4-
digit address came around, they conflicted with the existing rules for 
esoterics.  If you want to specify a 4-digit address (anywhere), you need to 
precede the address with a slash.  Also note that you can specify an esoteric 
device name in place of the address on the mount command; such as:

M SYSDA,VOL=(SL,WRKC14),USE=PUBLIC -or-
M SYSALLDA,VOL=(SL,WRKC14),USE=PUBLIC
