Using the Fourth and/or Fifth Gear Lockout

CAUTION: Avoid injury! Reduce speed before braking or turning, when hauling loads, and when operating around obstacles or on hazardous off-road conditions.

NOTE: Setting the gear lockout requires access to the transmission shift input shaft on the left side of the transmission, above the rear axle. If an attachment is installed, empty attachment and raise to service position. Park safely (see Using the Lift Cylinder Safety Support in the Safety section) and install the safety support.

Make sure that the vehicle is on a hard level surface, and the park brake is locked. Place the transmission in “Neutral” and turn the key switch to the STOP position before setting the fourth and/or fifth gear lockout.
