OPERATION AND SERVICE INFORMATION
Owner’s Guide
Read all of this manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notes, Cautions and Warnings.
B
The painted surfaces of the vehicle provide an attractive
appearance and durable protection. Frequent washing
with lukewarm or cold water and mild detergent is re-
quired to preserve the painted surfaces.
Occasional cleaning and waxing with non-abrasive prod-
ucts designed for ‘clear coat’ automotive finishes will en-
hance the appearance and durability of the painted
surfaces.
Corrosive materials used as fertilizers or for dust control
can collect on the underbody of the vehicle. These mate-
rials will cause corrosion of underbody parts unless
flushed occasionally with plain water. Thoroughly clean
any areas where mud or other debris can collect. Sedi-
ment packed in closed areas should be loosened to ease
it’s removal, taking care not to chip or otherwise damage
paint.

Some servicing operations may require the front wheels,
the rear wheels, or the entire vehicle be raised.
To reduce the possibility of severe injury or
death from a vehicle falling from a jack:
Be sure the vehicle is on a firm and level sur-
face.
Never get under a vehicle while it is supported
by a jack.
Use jack stands and test the stability of the
vehicle on the stands.
Always place chocks in front and behind the
wheels not being raised.
Use extreme care since the vehicle is extreme-
ly unstable during the lifting process.
When lifting vehicle, position jacks and jack stands at
the areas indicated only.
To raise the entire vehicle, install the wheel chocks in
front and behind each front wheel. Center the jack under
the bagwell and place a piece of wood, approximately 2"
x 4" x 12", between the jack and the underside of the
bagwell. Raise the vehicle and position the jack stands
under the frame where the leaf spring mounting bracket
is welded to the frame. (See Fig. 13)
Lower the jack and test the stability of the vehicle on the
two jack stands.
Place the jack under the center front of the car just be-
hind the bumper. (See Fig. 13) Raise the vehicle and po-
sition the jack stands under the frame where the
instrument panel support is attached to the frame.
Lower the jack and test the stability of the vehicle on all
four jack stands.
To raise only the front or rear of the vehicle, place the
wheel chocks in front and behind the wheels that are not
to be raised. The jack may be left under the center front
of the frame while the front end of the vehicle is on the
jack stands.
Lower the vehicle by reversing the lifting sequence.
