LEARNING TO OPERATE YOUR VEHICLE
You should become familiar with the
performance characteristics of the vehicle in
a large, flat area that is free of obstacles and
other vehicles. Practice control of the
accelerator pedal, brakes, steering, and drive
select lever. Drive first at slow speed and
become comfortable at that speed before
gradually increasing your speed. Become
familiar with the way the vehicle feels in low
and high ranges, first in two-wheel drive
(2WD) and then in four-wheel drive (4WD)
and four-wheel drive with the differential
locked (DIFF. LOCK). Also practice driving
in reverse. Take the time to learn basic
operation before attempting more difficult
maneuvers.
Perform the Pre-Operation Checks on pages
5-1
－
5-15. Set the parking brake, shift to
neutral, and follow the instructions on page
6-1 to start the engine. Once it has warmed
up and you have turned the choke off, you
are ready to begin driving your vehicle.
With the engine idling, shift the drive select
lever into low or high. Then release the
parking brake. Press the accelerator pedal
slowly and smoothly. The centrifugal clutch
will engage and you will start to accelerate.
Avoid higher speeds until you are thoroughly
familiar with the operation of your vehicle.
When slowing down or stopping, take your
foot off the accelerator pedal and smoothly
press the brake pedal. Improper use of the
brakes can cause the tires to lose traction,
reducing control and increasing the
possibility of an accident.
