LIFTING AND TOWING
08-2
Raising the front of a vehicle
Position the cup of the hydraulic arm under the
centre of the front body crossmember assembly.
Use jack to raise front road wheels to enable safety
stands to be installed under the front end of each
longitudinal member.
Carefully lower jack until vehicle sits securely on
safety stands.
Before working on the underside of a vehicle re-
check the stability of the vehicle on the stands.
Use the reverse procedure when removing a vehicle
from stands.
NOTE: For some repair operations it may be
necessary to use a jack to support the engine under
the sump. In this case, a block of wood should be
used on the jack to protect the sump.
Raising the rear of a vehicle
Position cup of hydraulic arm under the centre of the
rear subframe crossmember at the position
identified by the embossed arrows.
Use jack to raise rear road wheels to enable safety
stands to be installed under the rear ends of the
body longitudinal members.
Carefully lower jack until vehicle sits securely on
safety stands.
Before working on the underside of a vehicle, re-
check the stability of the vehicle on the stands.
Use the reverse procedure when removing a vehicle
from stands.
Wheel-free lift
Locate the lifting pads under the ends of the body
longitudinal members. Raise the ramp to support the
weight of the vehicle, ensure the vehicle is secure on
the lifting pads, then raise the ramp to the required
height.
Towing
General
The vehicle has permanent four wheel drive. The
following instructions must be adhered to:
Towing the vehicle on all four wheels with driver
operating steering and brakes
lTurn ignition key to position '1' to release
steering lock and then to position 'II' to enable
the brake lights, wipers and direction indicators
to be operated, if necessary.
l Select neutral in gearbox and ensure HDC (hill
descent control) is deselected.
lSecure tow rope, chain or cable to towing eye.
lRelease the parking brake.
CAUTION: The brake servo and power assisted
steering system will not be functional without the
engine running. Greater pedal pressure will be
required to apply the brakes and the steering
system will require greater effort to turn the front
road wheels. The vehicle tow connection should
only be used under normal road conditions,
'snatch' recovery should be avoided.
Suspended tow by breakdown vehicle
Mark propeller shaft drive flanges and mating flanges
with identification lines to enable the propeller shaft
to be refitted in its original position.
Remove the propeller shaft fixings then remove the
shaft from the vehicle.
CAUTION: To prevent vehicle damage, rear
propeller shaft MUST BE removed.

MAINTENANCE

Brake Shoes
1.With the vehicle at a convenient working height,
remove the rubber plugs from the rear of the
back plate.
2.Using a lamp, inspect thickness of rear brake
shoes.
NOTE: Any requirement to replace brake shoes
should be advised to the customer as this will
be subject to additional labour and/or material
cost and should not be carried out without the
authorisation of the customer.
3.Check for any signs of brake fluid
contamination on brake shoes, or evidence of
brake fluid leakage from drum/backplate.
4.Ensure that rubber plug is correctly fitted into
back plate upon completion of check.Brake Drums
1.With vehicle at a convenient working height and
the wheels removed, remove the rear brake
drums.

+ BRAKES, REPAIRS, Drum - rear.
2.Check brake shoe thickness, and condition of
brake shoes for any evidence of contamination
from brake fluid.
3.Check brake drum for signs of cracking,
excessive scoring or oil contamination.
NOTE: Any requirements to replace brake
shoes, wheel cylinders or brake drums should
be advised to the customer as this will be
subject to additional labour and/or material cost
and should not be carried out without the
authorisation of the customer.
4.Using brake cleaner, remove excessive
deposits of brake dust from drums, shoes and
back plate.

and security of connections.
4.Remove expansion tank filler cap.
5.Remove underbelly panel.

Nm (15 lbf.ft).
4.Fit bottom hose to radiator and secure with clip.
5.Prepare coolant to required concentration.

+ CAPACITIES, FLUIDS,
LUBRICANTS AND SEALANTS, Fluids.
6.Remove bleed screw from heater return hose.
7.Slowly fill the system through the coolant
expansion tank until a steady flow of coolant is

CAUTION: DO NOT operate air conditioning
12.Switch off engine.
13.Squeeze bottom hose several times to remove
any trapped air.
14.Start engine and run at speeds varying
between idle speed and 3500 rev/min for 7
minutes.
