2.3 Manipulation
(1) Before starting the vehicle, the driver must switch the shifting lever of gearbox to
neutral position. It would be best not to loosen the parking brake to ensure safety.
(2) The parking brake should be released when the gearbox is put into gear and the
vehicle is ready to go.
(3) When the vehicle is driving, the gearbox should be make up and down operation
in turn and out of turn operation is not allowed. As for torque converter’s structure is
backward trailer and one-way clutch, To prevent from the engine runaway, only when
the vehicle speed reaches the speed which is the limit one of lower adjacent gear, then
shifting to lower gear should be performed. If necessary, pedal brake can be used to
slow down the vehicle before changing to low gear.
(4) When the vehicle is coasting along a slope, the rotational speed of engine should
not be lower than 1200rpm, otherwise, the gear in gearbox and friction lining will be
damaged.
(5) When inverse manipulation is needed for the vehicle (from advancing gear
directly to reverse gear, or reverse gear directly to advance gear), the driver should
lower the rotational speed of engine and driving speed of the vehicle and the
maximum driving speed is not allowed to exceed 10km/h.
(6) When the vehicle stops moving, the engine cannot perform a function as brake due
to torque converter, so when the vehicle stops on a slope,the stopper should be placed
under the wheel to prevent the vehicle from coasting down.
(7) When the vehicle travels reversely, the driver should lower the rotational speed of
engine and the driving at speed 1 or speed 2 is suggested.
(8) When the vehicle is in trouble and needs to be dragged off, the towing speed
should be no more than 10km/h and the longest distance no more than 10km. If more
distance of towing is required, the transmission shaft between the output end of the
