Downshifting

cen dm 08.06.003
  1. With the transmission in high range, shift progressively downward 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. Important: Never use the clutch brake when downshifting, or as a brake to slow the vehicle.

  3. With the transmission in low range, downshift through the low range gears as conditions require.
