HOISTING
STANDARD PROCEDURE - HOISTING
Refer to Owner’s Manual provided with vehicle for
proper emergency jacking procedures. To increase
frame to ground clearance fabricate low wooden
ramps to position inside a twin post outboard hoist.
WARNING: THE HOISTING AND JACK LIFTING
POINTS PROVIDED ARE FOR A COMPLETE VEHI-
CLE (Fig. 5). WHEN THE ENGINE OR REAR SUS-
PENSION IS REMOVED FROM A VEHICLE, THE
CENTER OF GRAVITY IS ALTERED MAKING SOME
HOISTING CONDITIONS UNSTABLE. PROPERLY
SUPPORT OR SECURE VEHICLE TO HOISTING
DEVICE WHEN THESE CONDITIONS EXIST.

TO JUMP START A DISABLED VEHICLE
(1) Visually inspect vehicle for:
• Battery cable clamp condition, clean if necessary.
• Frozen battery.
• Yellow or bright color test indicator, if equipped.
• Low battery fluid level.
• Generator drive belt condition and tension.
• Fuel fumes or leakage, correct if necessary.
CAUTION: If the cause of starting problem on dis-
abled vehicle is severe, damage to booster vehicle
charging system can result.
(2) When using another vehicle as a booster
source, turn off all accessories, place gear selector in
park or neutral, set park brake and operate engine at
1200 ram.
(3) On disabled vehicle, place gear selector in neu-
tral and set park brake. Turn off all accessories.
(4) Connect jumper cables to booster battery. RED
clamp to positive terminal (+). BLACK clamp to neg-
ative terminal (-). DO NOT allow clamps at opposite
end of cables to touch, electrical arc will result.
Review all warnings in this procedure.
(5) Remove the plastic cover from the positive ter-
minal.

clamp to positive (+) terminal located on the left
cowl. Connect BLACK jumper cable clamp to chassis
ground (Fig. 6).
(7) Do not crank starter motor on disabled vehicle
for more than 15 seconds, starter will overheat and
could fail.
(8) Allow battery in disabled vehicle to charge to
at least 12.4 volts (75% charge) before attempting to
start engine. If engine does not start within 15 sec-
onds, stop cranking engine and allow starter to cool
(15 minutes), before cranking again
