LIFTING AND TOWING

08-4

Towing

Towing
The vehicle has permanent four wheel drive. The 
following towing instructions must be adhered 
to:

Towing on 4 wheels with driver operating 
steering and brakes

Select 'N' on automatic gearbox selector.

CAUTION: If 'N' cannot be selected, vehicle must 
not be towed.

Set the transfer box in neutral by inserting a spare 5 
amp fuse in position 37 in passenger compartment 
front fusebox.

CAUTION: If, due to an electrical fault, neutral 
cannot be selected due to battery disconnection, 
vehicle may be towed for a maximum period of 3 
hours at a maximum speed of 30 km/h (20 mph).

CAUTION: The 5 amp fuse must be removed on 
completion of vehicle repair.

Turn the ignition key to position 'll' for 15 seconds 
then turn key back to position 'l'.

WARNING: Do not turn the ignition key to 
position 'O' or attempt to remove the key whilst 
the vehicle is being towed. If an electrical fault is 
suspected, disconnect the battery before turning 
ignition key to position 'll'.

CAUTION: Provided that the above procedures 
have been carried out and neutral was selected 
on transfer box, the vehicle may be towed for a 
maximum period of 6 hours at a maximum speed 
of 80 km/h (50 mph).

Secure tow rope, chain or cable to the lashing/towing 
eye.

Release the handbrake.

WARNING: 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, the 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.
