Using Travel Controls

  1. Stop machine.

  2. Allow engine to come to a low idle speed.

  3. Avoid damage! Do not shift gears when vehicle is moving or with engine running above low idle speed. Push down brake to stop vehicle motion and engage shift lever with a firm positive action.

    Always shift into low range when operating on wet, uneven or steep terrain, when towing or pushing heavy loads, or operating at less than 16 km/h (10 mph).

    If it is difficult to shift into gear, or grinding occurs, return vehicle to a low idle speed, and then tap the throttle to increase the rpm slightly. Before attempting to shift again, return to idle.
