Operating the Transmission
Introduction
Your Regional Haul vehicle is equipped with either a man-
ual or automatic transmission with special features and
gearing to meet your particular needs. It is important for
you, the driver, to understand how your particular trans-
mission is operated. To do this, you have two sources of
information: this Operator's Manual and the transmission
manufacturer's Driver/Operator's Instruction Manual.
Because of the variety of different transmissions installed
in Regional Haul vehicles, operating procedures for your
particular transmission are not included in this manual;
therefore, you should read and understand both manuals.
Read the general guidelines and instructions that follow
and read the specific instructions contained in the trans-
mission manufacturer's manual that is included with your
vehicle.
