STARTING AND OPERATING

CAUTION:
o Never start the engine with the
gearshift lever placed in the for-
ward or reverse while one of the
rear wheels is jacked up and the
other in contact with the ground;
doing so may cause the vehicle
to jump forward.
o If one of the rear wheels begins
to spin in mud, snow, etc., the
vehicle can sometimes be driven
out by depressing the accelera-
tor pedal further; however, avoid
running the engine continuously
at high rpm because doing so
could damage the locking differ-
ential.
!
The following procedures can be used
to confirm that the locking differential
is functioning properly:
(1) Position the vehicle so that one
wheel is on a dry paved surface and
the other on ice, snow, mud, etc.
Drive the vehicle, and observe the
operation of the locking differential.
The vehicle should not become
stuck if the differential is function-
ing properly.
(2) Depress the accelerator pedal
gradually, and then when traction is
good, depress it forcefully. If the
vehicle accelerates well, the differ-
ential is functioning properly.
