OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
3. Push the parking brake valve handle (Yellow) against the dash
panel to release the brakes.
4. Release the clutch pedal (manual only), then gradually
accelerate to permit smooth starting.
5. Do not allow your vehicle to roll (even a little) in the opposite
direction during clutch engagement. If you need to start up on an
incline, apply your service brakes before you release the parking
brake. Then release your service brakes as you engage the
clutch and apply throttle.
If you have a misaligned gear condition in your vehicle’s transmission and
cannot start, gradually release the clutch, allowing the drive gear teeth to
line up properly. Then the drive gear can roll enough to allowing the teeth
to line up and complete the shift.
The best engine performance and maximum economy are obtained if gears
are properly selected. This efficiency is achieved by always selecting
gears within optimum engine rpm, which is where maximum torque and
power are
obtained. For further information, see ULTRASHIFT PLUS
FEATURES, page 140.
For further instructions on operating your transmission, see the transmission
manufacturer’s Driver/Operator’s Instruction Manual.
SHIFTING GEARS IN A NEW VEHICLE
Shift gears carefully in a new vehicle. The transmission may be a little
stiff at first. Avoid gear clashing by closely following these procedures:
• When you are operating a new vehicle or one that has been
exposed to cold weather, you want the transmission lubricant (fluid)
to circulate and coat the contacting surfaces of the gears.
• Metal contacting metal in moving parts may seriously damage
your transmission. Do not drive in one gear for long periods of
time until the transmission lubricant has had a chance to coat all
contacting surfaces.
•
Carefully observe the free travel in the clutch for the first few
hundred kilometres. As the clutch lining wears and high spots get
worn smooth, you will get less free travel.
