UPHILL DRIVE
When climbing a hill, downshift in
time to avoid the engine speed
revolution drop below 800 rpm
and do not allow the engine stop
due to its overloading.
DOWNHILL DRIVE
Free-wheel downhill drive is
strictly forbidden. When descend-
ing a long slope shit the lower
speed gear the more sheer the
slope is and do it, if possible be-
fore reaching the slope proper.
Note: The speed gear you would use for
climbing the hill will allow you to de-
scend it in the safety way.
FOOT BRAKES
The service foot brakes are of disc, wet,
and hydraulically operated type. They
consist of two pedals with automatic
pressure equalizer.
For the on-road drive the two
pedals have to be latched to-
gether. The individual brake ped-
als for the R.H. or L.H. wheels
should be exclusively used for
the off-road and field operation.
