Engage 4 low:
- stop truck
- put in neutral
- pull t-case shifter to "L4"
Engage 4 high
- stop truck
- put in neutral
- pull t-case shifter to "L4"
- press "H4" button
Hub lock button:
- for situations that require the use of 4wd but don't nessecitate the need to lock the diffs. Not to be used in conditions which would not allow tire slip to compensate for uneven turns of the axels (i.e. Doing a u-turn on asphalt)
Diff lock knob:
For use in 4wd when traction is at a premium such as deep mud/snow/sand of off-camber (axel twisting sections). Should be used sparingly. Usually as a last resort prior to performing recovery procedures or when negotiating obstacles with unknown requirements.
Lastly, what is this knob
