Local issues
A number of environmental issues will be of
particular concern to residents and other neighbours
close to the site. The sensitivity of these issues will
depend on the proximity of the site and the layout
and amount of activity carried on at the site.
Noise is a major concern and therefore consideration
should be given to the time spent carrying out noisy
activities and the location of those activities that can
cause excessive noise.
Car alarm testing, panel beating, hammering and
other such noisy activities should, whenever
possible, be carried out indoors with doors and
windows shut, or as far away from houses as
possible.
Running vehicle engines may be an outside activity
which could cause nuisance to neighbours because
of both noise and smell.
Be sensitive to the time of day when these activities
are carried out and minimise the time of the noisy
operation, particularly in the early morning and late
evening.
Another local concern will be the smell from the
various materials used. Using less solvent, paint and
petrol could help prevent this annoyance.
Local residents and other business users will also be
concerned about traffic congestion, noise and
exhaust fumes, be sensitive to these concerns and
try to minimise inconvenience from deliveries,
customers and servicing operations.
Checklist
Always adhere to the following:
lidentify where the neighbours who are likely to
be affected are situated;
lminimise noise, smells and traffic nuisance;
lprevent litter by putting waste in the correct
containers;
lhave waste skips emptied regularly.Use of resource
Another environmental concern is the waste of
materials and energy that can occur in day to day
activities.
Electricity for heating, lighting and compressed air
uses resources and releases pollution during its
generation.
Fuel used for heating, running cars or vans and
mobile plant is another limited resource which
consumes large amounts of energy during its
extraction and refining processes.
Water has to be cleaned, piped to site and disposed
of, all of which creates more potential pollution;
Oil, spares, paint etc., have all produced pollution in
the process of manufacture and they become a
waste disposal problem if discarded.
Checklist
Always adhere to the following:
Electricity and heating –
lkeep doors and windows closed in the winter;
lswitch off machinery or lights when not needed;
luse energy efficient heating systems;
lswitch off computers and photocopiers when
not needed.
Fuel –
ldon't run engines unnecessarily;
lthink about whether journeys are necessary and
drive to conserve fuel.
Water –
ldon't leave taps and hose pipes running;
lmend leaks quickly, don't be wasteful.
Compressed air –
ldon't leave valves open;
lmend leaks quickly;
ldon't leave the compressor running when not
needed.
Use of environmentally damaging materials –
lcheck whether a less toxic material is available.
Handling and storage of materials –
lhave the correct facilities available for handling
liquids to prevent spillage and wastage as listed
above;
lprovide suitable locations for storage to prevent
frost damage or other deterioration.

Rolling road testing
General
IMPORTANT: Use a four wheel rolling road for
brake testing if possible.
The front and rear wheels cannot be driven
independently due to the viscous coupling. This
eliminates the need for differential lock by
progressively applying more torque to the rear
wheels if the front wheels start to slip.
DO NOT attempt to drive individual wheels with
vehicle supported on floor jacks or stands.
Four wheel rolling road
Provided that front and rear rollers are rotating at
identical speeds and that normal workshop safety
standards are applied, there is no speed restriction
during testing, except any that may apply to the tyres.
Before testing a vehicle with anti-lock brakes on a
four wheel rolling road, disconnect the ABS
modulator. The ABS function will not work, the ABS
warning light will illuminate. Normal braking will be
available.
Two wheel rolling road
ABS will not function on a two wheel rolling road. The
ABS light will illuminate during testing. Normal
braking will be available.
If brake testing on a two wheel rolling road is
necessary, the following precautions should be
taken:
lpropeller shaft to the rear axle is removed/
disconnected;
lneutral selected in gearbox;
lhill descent control not selected.
When checking brakes, run engine at idle speed to
maintain servo vacuum.

LIFTING AND TOWING
08-2
Raising the front of a vehicle
Position the cup of the hydraulic arm under the
centre of the front body crossmember assembly.
Use jack to raise front road wheels to enable safety
stands to be installed under the front end of each
longitudinal member.
Carefully lower jack until vehicle sits securely on
safety stands.
Before working on the underside of a vehicle re-
check the stability of the vehicle on the stands.
Use the reverse procedure when removing a vehicle
from stands.
NOTE: For some repair operations it may be
necessary to use a jack to support the engine under
the sump. In this case, a block of wood should be
used on the jack to protect the sump.
Raising the rear of a vehicle
Position cup of hydraulic arm under the centre of the
rear subframe crossmember at the position
identified by the embossed arrows.
Use jack to raise rear road wheels to enable safety
stands to be installed under the rear ends of the
body longitudinal members.
Carefully lower jack until vehicle sits securely on
safety stands.
Before working on the underside of a vehicle, re-
check the stability of the vehicle on the stands.
Use the reverse procedure when removing a vehicle
from stands.
Wheel-free lift
Locate the lifting pads under the ends of the body
longitudinal members. Raise the ramp to support the
weight of the vehicle, ensure the vehicle is secure on
the lifting pads, then raise the ramp to the required
height.
Towing
General
The vehicle has permanent four wheel drive. The
following instructions must be adhered to:
Towing the vehicle on all four wheels with driver
operating steering and brakes
lTurn ignition key to position '1' to release
steering lock and then to position 'II' to enable
the brake lights, wipers and direction indicators
to be operated, if necessary.
l Select neutral in gearbox and ensure HDC (hill
descent control) is deselected.
lSecure tow rope, chain or cable to towing eye.
lRelease the parking brake.
CAUTION: 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 and the steering
system will require greater effort to turn the front
road wheels. The vehicle tow connection should
only be used under normal road conditions,
'snatch' recovery should be avoided.
Suspended tow by breakdown vehicle
Mark propeller shaft drive flanges and mating flanges
with identification lines to enable the propeller shaft
to be refitted in its original position.
Remove the propeller shaft fixings then remove the
shaft from the vehicle.
CAUTION: To prevent vehicle damage, rear
propeller shaft MUST BE removed.
