CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Always keep ram and extension screw retracted
when jack is not in use.
Service
: Check oil level when jack fails to raise
to full height. Lower ram completely with release
valve open and jack in upright position, remove
filler plug and refill to level of filler hole with
hydraulic jack oil.
Never use brake fluid.
Warning: Jack is intended for lifting only. Do
not get under the vehicle or load for any reason
unless it is properly supported with safety stands
and securely blocked.
Warning: Do not overload jack above rated
capacity. Prevent "side loading", make sure load
is centered on ram. Do not push or tilt load off
jack.
TOWING
To prevent damage to the vehicle, use the two
tow eyes located under the back bumper and/or
fixed to the vehicle's frame between the front
axle and the front bumper. Use only a solid link
tow bar and a safety chain to tow the vehicle. If
required, connect an auxiliary air supply to the
vehicle so brakes can be operated while towing.
TOW EYES
Warning: During a towing operation, the driver
should be alone inside the vehicle.
Caution: To prevent damage to the drive train
components, disconnect axle shafts or driveshaft
before towing. Do not attempt to push or pull-
start a vehicle equipped with an automatic
transmission.
Note: Make sure axle shafts or driveshaft are
installed correctly after towing. Tighten axle shaft
and driveshaft nuts to the correct torque settings.
Do not invert shafts.
GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
• Understand basic principles of vehicle
operation;
• Always maintain the vehicle in good running
condition;
• Do not drive with low fuel. If the fuel tank
runs dry, the engine will not start until the air
is bled from the fuel system. Refer to
"Maintenance Manual" for more information;
• Allow engine to run for at least two minutes
at slow idle before shutting OFF;
• Engine should be at idle when shifting from
neutral (N) to forward (D) or from neutral (N)
to reverse (R);
• The automatic transmission does not have a
park (P) position. Place transmission in
neutral (N) position and apply parking brake
when the vehicle is stopped. A warning
buzzer will sound if the engine is stopped
and the parking brake has not been applied
when foot pressure is removed from the
brake pedal;
• Always follow the procedures described in
this manual;
• Unless stated otherwise, shut OFF the
engine before performing all servicing,
lubrication and maintenance tasks;
• Do not attempt to push or pull-start a vehicle
equipped with an automatic transmission;
• The vehicle may be damaged if towed with
the axle shafts or driveshaft connected. Do
not push or pull-start the vehicle in first or
reverse gears;
• Two chemical fire extinguishers are stored
near the back of the driver’s seat. In case of
fire, immediately evacuate all occupants.
Human life safety is the first priority. Do not
attempt to extinguish the fire if there is
immediate danger or risk for personal injury;
• When driving on ice and snow, accelerate
and decelerate gradually;
