[GF17140(R)05/96]
NOTE: Do not drive the vehicle with the left and right
manual locking hubs set to different positions.
*
[GF17150(R)05/96]
To shift from 4H to 2H:
*
[GF17160(R)05/96]
Move the transfer case shift lever forward to the 2H position.
This can be done at any speed. However, the front driveline
will remain engaged to the front wheels until the manual
locking hubs are disengaged. To disengage the manual locking
hubs, stop the vehicle and rotate both hub lock selector knobs
counterclockwise to the FREE position.
*
[GF17170(R)05/96]
Operating in 2H with the hubs in the LOCK position increases
fuel consumption, noise, vibration, and wear. For prolonged 2H
operation on dry pavement, set the manual locking hubs to the
FREE position.
*
[GF17180(R)05/96]
To shift between 4H and 4L:
[GF17190(R)05/96]
Stop the vehicle and place the automatic transmission into N
(Neutral) or depress the clutch on vehicles with a manual
transmission. Pull the transfer case shift lever to the left and
shift the transfer case to the desired 4H or 4L position. This
shift should be with one continuous motion without pausing in
the N position. Pausing in the neutral position can result in gear
clash and difficult shifting. If while shifting between 4H and 4L,
the transfer case gets stuck in the N position or is difficult to
shift into either 4H or 4L, it may be necessary to let the vehicle
roll slightly and/or turn off the engine (particularly on vehicles
equipped with automatic transmissions).
[GF17200(R)05/96]
To shift between N (Neutral) and either 4H or 4L
[GF17210(R)05/96]
To shift into N (Neutral), stop the vehicle and engage the
parking brake. Place the automatic transmission into N (Neutral)
or depress the clutch on manual transmission vehicles. From
either the 4H or 4L position, pull the transfer case shift lever to
the left and move the transfer case shift lever to the N (Neutral)
position. The N (Neutral) position should only be used for
vehicle towing.
