LIFTING AND TOWING

LIFTING

The following instructions must be carried out before
raising the vehicle off the ground.

l

Use a solid level ground surface.

l

Apply hand brake.

l

Select 'P' (Automatic gearbox) or 1st gear
(Manual gearbox) in main gearbox.

l

Select Low range in transfer gearbox.

To avoid damage occurring to the under body
components of the vehicle the following jacking
procedures must be adhered to.

DO NOT POSITION JACKS OR AXLE STANDS
UNDER THE FOLLOWING COMPONENTS:

l

Body structure

l

Bumpers

l

Fuel lines

l

Brake lines

l

Front radius arms

l

Panhard rod

l

Steering linkage

l

Rear trailing arms

l

Fuel tank

l

Engine sump

l

Gearbox bell housing

Vehicle jack
The jack provided with the vehicle is only intended for
use in an emergency, for changing a tyre. DO NOT
use the jack for any other purpose. Refer to Owner's
Handbook for vehicle jack location points and
procedure. Never work under a vehicle supported
solely by the vehicle jack.

Hydraulic jack
A hydraulic jack with a minimum 1500 kg, 3,300 lbs
load capacity must be used. Do not commence
work on the underside of the vehicle until
suitable axle stands have been positioned under
the axle.

WARNING: Always chock the wheels when
jacking. The hand brake acts on the
transmission, not the rear wheels, and may be
ineffective when the wheels are off the ground.

Raising and supporting the vehicle

Position cup of hydraulic arm under differential
casing (1).The differential casing is not central to
the axle. Care should be taken when raising the
front road wheels off the ground as the rear axle
has less sway stiffness.

Raise vehicle to enable an axle stand to be installed
under left hand axle tube (2).

Position an axle stand under right hand axle tube (4).
Carefully lower jack until vehicle sits securely on both
axle stands, remove jack.

Alternatively, the axle stands can be positioned
under the chassis longitudinals at the front and/or
rear of the vehicle.

Before commencing work on underside of vehicle re-
check security of vehicle on stands.

WARNING: Always chock the wheels when
jacking. The hand brake acts on the the
transmission, not the rear wheels, and may be
ineffective when the wheels are off the ground.

LIFTING AND TOWING

08-2

Reverse procedure when removing vehicle from
stands.

Hydraulic ramps
Use only a 'drive on' type ramp which supports a
vehicle by it's own road wheels. If a 'wheel free'
condition is required, use a 'drive on' ramp
incorporating a 'wheel free' system that supports
under axle casings. Alternatively, place vehicle on a
firm, flat floor and support on axle stands.

TOWING

Towing
The vehicle has permanent four wheel drive. The
following towing instructions must be adhered
to:

Towing on 4 wheels with driver
Turn ignition key to position '1' to release steering
lock.

Select neutral in main gearbox and transfer gearbox.

Secure tow rope, chain or cable to towing eye.

Release the handbrake.

The brake servo and power assisted steering
system will not be functional without the engine
running. Greater pedal pressure will be required
to apply the brakes, the steering system will
require greater effort to turn the front road
wheels. The vehicle tow connection should be
used only in normal road conditions, 'snatch'
recovery should be avoided.

Suspended tow
To prevent vehicle damage, front or rear
propeller shaft MUST BE removed, dependent
upon which axle is being trailed.

Mark propeller shaft drive flanges at transfer box and
axles with identification lines to enable the propeller
shaft to be refitted in its original position.

Remove the propeller shaft fixings, remove the shaft
from the vehicle.

If the front axle is to be trailed turn ignition key to
position '1' to release steering lock.

The steering wheel and/or linkage must be
secured in a straight ahead position. DO NOT use
the steering lock mechanism for this purpose.

Towing eyes
The towing eyes at the front and rear of the vehicle
are designed for vehicle recovery purposes only and
must NOT be used to tow a trailer or caravan.

Front:A single towing eye, set behind a removable
panel in the front spoiler. DO NOT use the front
lashing rings for towing.
