LEARNING TO OPERATE YOUR VEHICLE You should become familiar with the performance characteristics of the vehicle in a large, flat area that is free of obstacles and other vehicles. Practice control of the accelerator pedal, brakes, steering, and drive select lever. Drive first at slow speed and become comfortable at that speed before gradually increasing your speed. Become familiar with the way the vehicle feels in low and high ranges, first in two-wheel drive (2WD) and then in four-wheel drive (4WD) and four-wheel drive with the differential locked (DIFF. LOCK). Also practice driving in reverse. Take the time to learn basic operation before attempting more difficult maneuvers. Perform the Pre-Operation Checks on pages 5-1-5-11. Set the parking brake, shift to neutral, and follow the instructions on page 6-1 to start the engine. Once it has warmed up and you have turned the choke off, you are ready to begin driving your vehicle. With the engine idling, shift the drive select lever into low or high. Then release the parking brake. Press the accelerator pedal slowly and smoothly. The centrifugal clutch will engage and you will start to accelerate. Avoid higher speeds until you are thoroughly familiar with the operation of your vehicle. When slowing down or stopping, take your foot off the accelerator pedal and smoothly press the brake pedal. Improper use of the brakes can cause the tires to lose traction, reducing control and increasing the possibility of an accident. 7-5
