necessary to check oil feed to the hydraulic pushers or to replace
faulty hydraulic pushers.
5. For fail-safe operation and to prevent accelerator pedal
breakdown it is recommended:
- do not apply excessive loads on the pedal lever after operating
stroke ending;
- avoid impact, lateral and other loads that do not correspond
to the pedal operating stroke.
6. Engage back run in the gear box and underdrive in the
transfer case only when a motor vehicle completely stops.
7. Before fuelling motor vehicle, the heater-temperature booster
(if available) shall be switched off.
8. When driving over dry hard roads the front axle shall be
disengaged.
Avoid front axle engagement when driving a motor vehicle with
small turning radii.
9. In case of malfunction of any brake circuit brake pedal stroke
increases and brake efficiency decreases.
10. It is not recommended to operate diesel engine for more
than 10 minutes with minimum idle speed in order to prevent oil
penetration to the intake system from the turbocharge bearing
assembly.
11. In case of frequent brake pedal depressing in a diesel engine
motor vehicle (after releasing the pedal it is depressed again, e.g.
on downhill) the vacuum pump is not able to create the required
depression, wherefore braking capacity decreases and it will be
necessary to apply increased force to the brake pedal.
To ensure efficient braking, keep engine idle speed from going
below 850 min

12. Be careful when carrying out any operation with the motor
vehicle hood opened, as the electric fan can switch on (irrespective
of whether engine is on or off) on command of the Engine Control
Unit.
13. Safe parking system is optional equipment that facilitates
motor vehicle driving but does not drive a motor vehicle itself,
therefore the manufacturing plant is not responsible for any possible
damages when driving in reverse.
14. It is prohibited to remove metal segments with engine on
and to check sparking charge "to ground".
