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.

Refrigerant - A/C system
Fluids
Anti-freeze
Use Havoline Extended Life Coolant (XLC), or any
ethylene glycol based anti-freeze (containing no
methanol) with only Organic Acid Technology
corrosion inhibitors, to protect the cooling system
CAUTION: No other anti-freeze should be used
with Havoline Extended Life Coolant.
The cooling system should be drained, flushed and
refilled with the correct amount of anti-freeze solution
at the intervals given on the Service Maintenance
Check Sheet.
After filling with anti-freeze solution, attach a warning
label to a prominent position on the vehicle stating
the type of anti-freeze contained in the cooling
system to ensure that the correct type is used for
topping-up.
Brake/Clutch fluid
Use only DOT 4 brake fluid.
PAS/ACE fluid
Use Texaco cold climate power assisted steering
fluid 14315.
Air conditioning
Use only refrigerant R134a.
Refrigerant oil
Use only NipponDenso ND-oil 8 or Unipart ND-oil 8.
Refrigerant oil absorbs water and must not be stored
for long periods. Do not pour unused oil back into the
container.
NOTE: The total quantity of refrigerant oil in the
system is 180 ml.
CAUTION: Do not use any other type of
refrigerant oil.

Anti-Freeze Concentration
The overall anti-freeze concentration should not fall,
by volume, below 50% to ensure that the anti-
corrosion properties of the coolant are maintained.
Anti-freeze concentrations greater than 60% are not
recommended as cooling efficiency will be impaired.
The following recommended quantities of anti-freeze
will provide frost protection to -48
°C (-53°F):
Engine - TD5
Engine - V8
Lubrication
General
The engine and other lubricating systems are filled
with high-performance lubricants giving prolonged
life.
CAUTION: Always use a high quality oil of the
correct viscosity range in the engine. The use of
oil of the incorrect specification can lead to high
oil and fuel consumption and ultimately to
damaged components.
Oil to the correct specification contains additives
which disperse the corrosive acids formed by
combustion and prevent the formation of sludge
which can block the oil ways. Additional oil additives
should not be used.
Always adhere to the recommended servicing
intervals.
Engine oil viscosity
The above chart indicates the ambient temperature
ranges which each engine oil viscosity is suitable for.
Engine oil - V8 - low compression engine
Use a 10W/40 oil meeting specification ACEA: A2,
and having a viscosity band recommended for the
temperature range of your locality.

Use a 5W/30 oil meeting specification ACEA: A1,
(API SJ or ILSAC GF2 for USA).
NOTE: ACEA: A2 can be used.
Engine oil - Td5
Use oil meeting specification ACEA: A1, B1 or B2.
Gearbox oil
Use of gearbox oils other than those specified may
result in serious damage to the gearbox,
Manual Gearbox
Use Texaco MTF 94 oil for refill and topping-up. If
MTF 94 is not available, ATF Dexron IID or ATF
Dexron III may be used.
Automatic Gearbox
Use ATF Dexron IID or Dexron III oil for refill or
topping-up.
Transfer box
Use Texaco Multi-Gear 75W/90R.

Spark plugs - V8 engine
Replace
Take great care when fitting spark plugs not
to cross-thread plug, otherwise costly
damage to cylinder head will result. It is
essential that correct grade of spark plugs
are fitted. Incorrect grade of spark plugs
may lead to piston overheating and engine
failure. Use only approved spark plugs, use
of unapproved spark plugs may cause the
misfire detection system to malfunction.

±
0.05 mm (0.040
± 0.002 in).
Do not attempt to clean or adjust gaps. If a
spark plug problem exists, try substituting
defective spark plug(s) with new one(s).
CAUTION: Do not attempt to clean or adjust
spark plug gaps. If a spark plug problem
exists, try substituting the defective spark
plug with a new one.
