GEAR SELECTOR
To change gears, stop the vehicle, and with the engine idling, move the lever to
the desired gear. Do not attempt to shift gears with engine speed above idle or
while the vehicle is moving.
H: High Gear
L: Low Gear
N: Neutral
R: Reverse
P: Park
Low gear is the primary driving range for the RANGER. High gear is intended for
use on hard-packed surfaces with light loads. Whenever the vehicle is left
unattended, always place the transmission in PARK.
TIP
Maintaining shift linkage adjustment is important to assure proper transmission
function. Your POLARIS dealer can assist in resolving any shifting problems.
NOTICE
Do not attempt to shift the transmission while the vehicle is moving or damage
to the transmission could result. Always shift when the vehicle is stationary and
the engine is at idle.
