Note:You can only move the gearshift leverto crawler (C) by raising the collar belowthe gearshift knob up before shifting tocrawler. This is a lockout feature whichprotects the transmission from accidentallyengaging crawler (C) when intending toselect second (2).
If crawler (C) is not fully engaged press theclutch pedal down, return the gearshift tothe neutral position, then release the clutchpedal. Re-apply the clutch pedal, then liftthe gearshift collar and shift into crawler(C) again.
The crawler gear enables an easier start inunusual conditions or terrain. You shouldchange up to first (1) when possible andrefrain from using crawler (C) at highengine speeds as transmission damagecould result. See Manual TransmissionPrecautions (page 174).
In normal use, ensure your vehicle isstationary before selecting crawler (C) asit is primarily a starting gear. If you changedown to crawler (C) from first (1) while thevehicle is moving, ensure an engine speedis below 1500 rpm, and that the clutchpedal is fully pressed for a smoothtransition to crawler gear.
RECOMMENDED SHIFT
SPEEDS
Recommended Shift Speeds
For best fuel efficiency when driving yourvehicle, shift to the next gear by 3000RPM.
Shifting at a higher RPM such as3000-6000 RPM can increase theperformance capabilities of the vehicle.However, higher engine and transmissionspeeds can increase wear and reduce fueleconomy.
When downshifting your vehicle, alwaysshift at the lowest engine RPM possible tomatch your driving conditions. This isusually under 2000 RPM for all forwardgears, except for downshifting into thecrawler (C) gear which you should dobelow 1500 RPM. See ManualTransmission Precautions (page 174).
Note:Always fully depress the clutch pedalbetween gear shifts.
