WARNING
When disconnecting jumper cables,
make sure they do not get caught in
any moving parts in the engine com-
partment. Failure to comply may result
in death, personal injury, equipment or
property damage.
Reverse the above procedure exactly
when removing the jumper cables. With
engine running, disconnect jumper cables
from both vehicles in the exact reverse
order, making sure to first remove the
negative cable from the vehicle with the
discharged battery.
How to Recover a Vehicle
CAUTION
Remove the drive axle shafts or lift the
driving wheels off the ground before
towing the vehicle. Towing the vehicle
with either the wheels on the ground or
the axle shafts in the axles will cause
damage to the axle gears.
CAUTION
If your vehicle has a Meritor axle with
a driver-controlled main differential
lock, install the caging bolt before re-
moving the axles for towing, see How
to Manually Lock a Differential. Instal-
ling the caging bolt prevents damage
by locking internal axle components in
position.
CAUTION
Connect recovery rigging only to hitch-
es intended for that purpose. DO NOT
attach to bumpers or brackets. Use
only equipment designed for this pur-
pose. Failure to comply may result in
equipment damage.
WARNING
Before towing a vehicle, test your air
brakes to ensure that you have proper-
ly connected and inspected the recov-
ery vehicle’s brake system. Failure to
do so could lead to a loss of vehicle
control which may result in an accident
involving death or personal injury.
All lubricating and clutch application oil
pressure is provided by an engine-driven
pump, which will not work when the engine
is stopped. You could seriously damage
your vehicle by towing it with the driveline
connected and the drive wheels on the
ground. Worse, when vehicles are towed,
either by wrecker or piggyback, the
lubricant in the top front of the drive axle
will drain to the rear. This will leave the top
components dry. The resulting friction may
damage them. Always remove the main
drive axle shafts before towing your
vehicle.
1.
Review and understand all the
cautions and warnings of this
section.

Disconnect the drive axle shafts
and cover the open hubs. This is
