Downshifting

m2 dm 08.06.003
  1. With the transmission in high range, shift progressively down to the bottom gear in high range, double-clutching between shifts.
  2. When in the bottom gear of the high-range shift pattern and ready for the next downshift, push the range preselection lever down into low range. Double-clutch through neutral and shift into the top gear of the low-range shift pattern. As the shift lever passes through neutral, the transmission will automatically shift from high range to low range.
  3. With the transmission in low range, downshift through the low range gears as conditions require.
    Never use the clutch brake when downshifting or as a brake to slow the vehicle.
