Jacking and Lifting - Vehicle Recovery
Description and Operation
CAUTION: The vehicle has permanent four-wheel drive. The following towing instructions must be adhered to:
Towing the vehicle on all four wheels with driver operating steering and brakes.
Turn ignition key to position '1' to release steering lock.
Select neutral in main gearbox and transfer gearbox.
Secure tow rope, chain or cable to front towing eyes (alternative types shown).
Release the parking brake.
CAUTION: The brake booster and power assisted steering system will not be functional without the engine running.
Greater pedal pressure will be required to apply the brakes, the steering system will require greater effort to turn the
front road wheels. The vehicle tow connection should be used only in normal road conditions, 'snatch' recovery should
be avoided.
Transporting the vehicle by trailer
Lashing/towing eyes are provided on front and rear of the chassis side members, see J6085, to facilitate the securing of
the vehicle to a trailer or other means of transportation.
CAUTION: Underbody components must not be used as lashing points.
Install vehicle on trailer and apply park brake. Select neutral in main gearbox.
Rear suspended tow by breakdown vehicle
If the front axle is to be trailed turn ignition key to position '1' to release steering lock.
Select neutral in main gearbox and transfer box.
The steering wheel and/or linkage must be secured in a straight ahead position. DO NOT use the steering lock
mechanism for this purpose.
Jump starting
WARNING: Hydrogen and oxygen gases are produced during normal battery operation. This gas mixture can
explode if flames, sparks or lighted tobacco are brought near battery. When charging or using a battery in an enclosed
space, always provide ventilation and shield your eyes.
Keep out of reach of children. Batteries contain sulphuric acid. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. Also, shield
eyes when working near battery to protect against possible splashing of acid solution. In case of acid contact with skin,
eyes, or clothing, flush immediately with water for a minimum of fifteen minutes. If acid is swallowed, drink large
quantities of milk or water, followed by milk of magnesia, a beaten egg, or vegetable oil.
SEEK MEDICAL AID IMMEDIATELY.
To Jump Start - Negative Ground Battery
WARNING: To avoid any possibility of injury use particular care when connecting a booster battery to a discharged
battery.
Position vehicles so that jump leads will reach, ensuring that vehicles DO NOT TOUCH, alternatively a fully
charged slave battery may be positioned on floor adjacent to vehicle.
Ensuring that ignition and all electrical accessories are switched off, that parking brake is applied and neutral is
selected, connect the jump leads as follows;
A. Connect one end of first jumper cable to positive (+) terminal of booster battery. B. Connect other end of first jumper
cable to positive (+) terminal of discharged battery. C. Connect one end of second jumper cable to negative terminal of
booster battery. D. Connect other end of second jumper cable to a good earth point on the disabled vehicle (eg. engine
front lifting eye, as shown in J6086), NOT TO NEGATIVE TERMINAL OF DISCHARGED BATTERY. Keep jumper lead away
from moving parts, pulleys, drive belts and fan blade assembly.
WARNING: Making final cable connection could cause an electrical arc which if made near battery could cause an
explosion.
If booster battery is installed in another vehicle, start engine and allow to idle.
Start engine of vehicle with discharged battery, following starting procedure in Owners' Manual.
CAUTION: If vehicle fails to start within a maximum time of 12 seconds, switch ignition off and investigate cause.
Failing to follow this instruction could result in irrepairable damage to catalyst, if fitted.
Remove negative (-) jumper cable from the engine and then terminal of booster battery.
Remove positive (+) jumper cable from positive terminals of booster battery and discharged battery.
