Gear Selector

Low gear is the primary driving range for the
Gear Selector
RANGER. High gear is intended for use on
(Shifter)
hard-packed surfaces with light loads. Using
high gear for heavy loads, hilly terrain or in
wet, muddy conditions will increase the
chance of drive belt burning. See the Drive
Belt Wear/Burn section on page 99.
H: High Gear
L: Low Gear
N: Neutral
R: Reverse
P: Park
To shift gears, brake to a complete stop. When
the engine is idling, move the lever to the desired gear.
NOTICE: Shifting gears with the engine speed above idle or while the vehicle is moving could cause
transmission damage. Always shift when the vehicle is stationary and the engine is at idle.
Tip: Maintaining shift linkage adjustment is important to assure proper transmission function. See your
dealer if you experience any shifting problems.
Using Low Range
Always shift into low gear for any of the following conditions.
• Operating in rough terrain or over obstacles
• Loading the vehicle onto a trailer
• Towing heavy loads
• Driving frequently at low RPM or at ground speeds below 7 MPH (11 km/h)
