9-speed transmission
General notes
Gearshift pattern
The
9-speed transmission is a manually oper-
ated gearbox. The gearbox is equipped with a
double-H gearshift.
When in neutral position, the gear lever is in
the gate between the 3rd and 4th gear and
the 5th and 6th gear.
The shift ranges of the transmission are divi-
ded into:
R
the low shift range "L" with:
-
reverse gear k
-
crawler gear r
-
gears 1 to 4
R
the
high shift range "H" with gears 5 to 8
Changing the shift range
!
Observe the following maximum permis-
sible
speed when changing shift range from
the fast to the slow group.
When driving in the off-road gear of the
transfer case, do not exceed the maximum
speed of 20 km/h when changing gear.
When driving in the road gear or when driv-
ing a vehicle without a transfer case, main-
tain a vehicle speed of less than approx-
imately 25 km/h when changing gear.
If you change from the high-range group to
the low-range group at high speed, the
transmission may be damaged.
