    INFORMATION 3.Position an axle stand under right hand axle
    tube, carefully lower jack until axle sits securely
    on both axle stands, remove trolley jack.
    4.Before commencing work on underside of
    vehicle re-check security of vehicle on stands.
    5.Reverse procedure when removing vehicle from
    stands.
    Raise rear of vehicle
    1.Position cup of hydraulic arm under differential
    casing.
    2.Raise vehicle to enable axle stands to be
    installed under left and right hand axle tubes.
    3.Lower jack until axle sits securely on axle
    stands, remove trolley jack.
    4.Before commencing work on underside of
    vehicle re-check security of vehicle on stands.
    5.Reverse procedure when removing vehicle from
    stands.
    HYDRAULIC VEHICLE RAMP (FOUR POST)
    Use only a drive on type ramp which supports vehicle
    on its road wheels. If a wheel-free condition is
    required, use a drive on ramp incorporating a
    wheel-free system providing support beneath axle
    casings. Alternatively, place vehicle on a firm, flat floor
    and support on axle stands.
    TWO POST VEHICLE RAMPS
    The manufacturer of LAND ROVER VEHICLES
    DOES NOT recommend using Two Post ramps
    that employ four adjustable support arms. These
    are NOT considered safe for Land Rover vehicles.
    If vehicle is installed on a Two Post ramp
    responsibility for safety of vehicle and personnel
    performing service operations is in the hands of
    the Service Provider.DYNAMOMETER TESTING
    The front and rear axles cannot be driven
    independently.
    WARNING: DO NOT attempt to drive
    individual wheels with vehicle supported
    on floor jacks or stands.
    Four wheel dynamometers
    Provided that front and rear dynamometer rollers are
    rotating at identical speeds and that normal workshop
    safety standards are applied, there is no speed
    restriction during testing except any that may apply to
    the tyres.
    Two wheel dynamometers
    IMPORTANT: Use a four wheel dynamometer for
    brake testing if possible.
    If brake testing on a single axle rig is necessary it
    must be carried out with propeller shaft to rear axle
    removed, AND neutral selected in BOTH main
    gearbox and transfer gearbox. When checking brakes,
    run engine at idle speed to maintain servo vacuum.
    If checking engine performance, the transfer box must
    be in high range and propeller shaft to stationary axle
    must be removed.

    INFORMATION TOWING
    CAUTION: The vehicle has permanent
    four-wheel drive. The following towing
    instructions must be adhered to:
    Towing the vehicle on all four wheels with driver
    operating steering and brakes.
    1.Turn ignition key to position 1 to release
    steering lock.
    2.Select neutral in main gearbox and transfer
    gearbox.
    3.Secure tow rope, chain or cable to front towing
    eyes.
    4.Release the parking brake.
    CAUTION: The brake servo and power
    assisted steering system will not be
    functional without the engine running.
    Greater pedal pressure will be required to apply
    the brakes, the steering system will require
    greater effort to turn the front road wheels.
    The vehicle tow connection should be used only
    in normal road conditions, snatch recovery
    should be avoided.
    Rear suspended tow by breakdown vehicle
    1.If the front axle is to be trailed turn ignition key to
    position 1 to release steering lock.
    2.Select neutral in main gearbox and transfer box.
    CAUTION: The steering wheel and/or
    linkage must be secured in a straight
    ahead position. DO NOT use the steering
    lock mechanism for this purpose.TRANSPORTING THE VEHICLE BY TRAILER
    Lashing/towing eyes are provided on front and rear of
    the chassis side members, to facilitate the securing of
    the vehicle to a trailer or other means of
    transportation.
    CAUTION: Underbody components must
    not be used as lashing points.
    Install vehicle on trailer and apply park brake. Select
    neutral in main gearbox.

    INFORMATION JUMP STARTING
    WARNING: Hydrogen and oxygen gases
    are produced during normal battery
    operation. This gas mixture can explode if
    flames, sparks or lighted tobacco are brought
    near battery. When charging or using a battery in
    an enclosed space, always provide ventilation and
    shield your eyes.
    Keep out of reach of children. Batteries contain
    sulphuric acid. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or
    clothing. Also, shield eyes when working near
    battery to protect against possible splashing of
    acid solution. In case of acid contact with skin,
    eyes, or clothing, flush immediately with water for
    a minimum of fifteen minutes. If acid is swallowed,
    drink large quantities of milk or water, followed by
    milk of magnesia, a beaten egg, or vegetable oil.
    SEEK MEDICAL AID IMMEDIATELY.
    To Jump Start - Negative Ground Battery
    WARNING: To avoid any possibility of
    injury, use particular care when
    connecting a booster battery to a
    discharged battery.
    1.Position vehicles so that jump leads will reach,
    ensuring that vehiclesDO NOT TOUCH,
    alternatively a fully charged slave battery may be
    positioned on floor adjacent to vehicle.
    2.Ensuring that ignition and all electrical
    accessories are switched off, that parking brake
    is applied and neutral is selected, connect the
    jump leads as follows;
    A.Connect one end of first jumper cable to positive
    (+) terminal of booster battery.
    B.Connect other end of first jumper cable to positive
    (+) terminal of discharged battery.
    C.Connect one end of second jumper cable to
    negative (-) terminal of booster battery.
    D.Connect other end of second jumper cable to a
    good earth point on the disabled vehicle (eg. engine
    front lifting eye, as shown in 10M0490),NOT TO
    NEGATIVE TERMINAL OF DISCHARGED
    BATTERY.Keep jumper lead away from moving
    parts, pulleys, drive belts and fan blade assembly.
    WARNING: Making final cable connection
    could cause an electrical arc which if
    made near battery could cause an
    explosion.
    3.If booster battery is installed in another vehicle,
    start engine and allow to idle.
    4.Start engine of vehicle with discharged battery,
    following starting procedure in Owners Manual.
    CAUTION: If vehicle fails to start within a
    maximum time of 12 seconds, switch
    ignition off and investigate cause. Failing
    to follow this instruction could result in
    irrepairable damage to catalyst, if fitted.
    5.Remove negative (-) jumper cable from the
    engine and then negative (-) terminal of booster
    battery.
    6.Remove positive (+) jumper cable from positive
    terminals of booster battery and discharged
    battery.

    INFORMATION FAULT DIAGNOSTIC EQUIPMENT
    TESTBOOK
    Land Rover Vehicles are equipped with substantial
    electronics to provide the best performance from the
    vehicle systems.
    Diagnostic equipment named TestBook is available to
    expand the diagnostic and fault finding abilities of the
    Dealer workshop. A diagnostic connector, located
    below the passenger compartment fuse box, is
    provided to facilitate the procedures. This repair
    manual is produced with TestBook in mind. Features
    of TestBook include:-
    ·Fully upgradable support for the technician.
    ·Structured diagnostics to accomodate all skill
    levels.
    ·Touch screen operation.
    ·Direct print out of screen information and test
    results.
    READING THIS MANUAL
    This manual is divided into sections shown on the
    contents page, alongside a range of icons, familiar to
    service technicians.
    Relevant information is contained within each of these
    sections. These are further divided into the following
    sub-sections which appear at the foot of each page :-
    Description and operation.
    Fault diagnosis.
    Adjustment.
    Repair.
    Overhaul.
    Specifications, Torque.
    To avoid repeating information through the sections,
    where part of the repair operation impacts on another
    section, a cross reference is given to direct the reader
    to where the information is sited.
    For example:
    The maintenance section states the need to renew
    drive belt. A cross reference sites this information in:
    Section 12 Engine
    - Sub-section: Repairs
    - Heading: Drive belt renew.
