How to Shift Gears in an 8-Speed High-Low Range Transmission?
1 Answers
8-Speed high-low range shifting method is as follows: 1. Toggle the high-low range switch upward to engage high range, and downward for low range; 2. Gears 1 through 6 are forward gears, R is reverse gear, and N is neutral. A manual transmission vehicle uses a manually operated mechanical gearbox to adjust speed, meaning shifting the gear lever changes the gear meshing positions inside the transmission, altering the gear ratio to achieve speed variation. The clutch must be depressed to move the gear lever. The method for starting a truck is: 1. Fully depress the clutch pedal; 2. Move the gear lever to engage 1st gear as the starting gear; 3. Lightly press the turn signal lever downward to activate the left turn signal, alerting vehicles ahead and behind; 4. Press the horn button to warn pedestrians in front of the vehicle of the impending start; 5. Release the vehicle's manual parking brake; 6. Gradually lift the left foot until the clutch reaches the half-engaged position, causing the vehicle to vibrate slightly; 7. As the vehicle begins to move, release the clutch and gently press the accelerator.
