If either park or low range cannot be reached, the shift
cable must be adjusted.
ADJUSTING
NOTE: Shift cable adjustment should not be neces-
sary unless replacing the shift cable or shift lever.
1. Remove the seats; then remove the battery cover and
center console.
2. Loosen adjuster nut (A) and jam nut (B) and adjust the
cable as necessary to obtain park in the full aft posi-
tion of the shift lever and low range full forward.
Tighten the jam nut securely.

Hydraulic Brake System
NOTE: The XT/XTX models are equipped with drive-
line hydraulic and cable-actuated calipers incorporat-
ing a bleed screw for the hydraulic brake and a cable
adjuster for parking brake adjustment. The XTZ model
is equipped with hydraulic brakes at all four wheels
and a cable only actuated driveline parking brake.
CHECKING/BLEEDING
The hydraulic brake system has been filled and bled at
the factory. To check and/or bleed a hydraulic brake sys-
tem, use the following procedure.
1. With the master cylinder in a level position, check
the fluid level in the reservoir. If the level in the res-
ervoir is not above the MIN, add DOT 4 brake fluid.

2. Depress the brake pedal several times to check for a
firm brake. If the brake is not firm, the system must
be bled.
3. To bleed the brake system, use the following proce-
dure.
A. Remove the cover and fill the reservoir with DOT
4 Brake Fluid.
B. Install and secure the cover; then slowly depress
the brake pedal several times.
C. Remove the protective cap, install one end of a
clear hose onto the REAR bleeder screw, and
direct the other end into a container; then while
holding slight pressure on the brake pedal, open
the bleeder screw and watch for air bubbles. Close
the bleeder screw before releasing the brake
pedal. Repeat this procedure until no air bubbles
are present.

NOTE: During the bleeding procedure, watch the
reservoir very closely to make sure there is always a
sufficient amount of brake fluid. When the level falls
below MIN, refill the reservoir before the bleeding
procedure is continued. Failure to maintain a suffi-
cient amount of fluid in the reservoir will result in air
in the system.
D. At this point, perform steps B and C on the
FRONT RIGHT bleeder screw; then move to the
FRONT LEFT bleeder screw(s) and follow the
same procedure.
E. Repeat steps B and C until the brake pedal is firm.
