when climbing hills and for increased
braking when going down hills. This posi-
tion also helps reduce wheel spin on slip-
pery surfaces. When the shift lever is

will automatically shift from first to sec-
ond gear.L (Low)Move the shift lever to this position in
hard pulling situations and for climbing
steep grades.
