Tilt Steering Wheel
The tilt steering wheel (optional
equipment) can be tilted up above
normal position to provide additional
room for entrance and exit as well as
selected driving positions below nor-
mal height. This permits individual
selection of the most natural position
for all driving conditions. On long
trips the steering wheel position can
be changed to minimize tension and
fatigue.
The tilt mechanism is operated by
lifting up on the small control lever
on the left side of the steering column
just below the directional signal,
moving the steering wheel to the
selected position, and releasing the
lever.
Positraction Rear Axle
The optional Positraction provides
additional traction on snow, ice, mud,
sand, and gravel, particularly when
one wheel is on a surface pro-
viding poor traction.
During normal driving and corner-
ing, the Positraction unit functions as
a standard differential. When one
wheel encounters a slippery surface,
however, the Positraction directs
driving force to the rear wheel having
the better traction.
CAUTION: with a Posi-
traction,

Occupant Restraint Belts
Lap and shoulder belts provide
added security and comfort for you
and your passengers. Proper use and
care of these belts will assure con-
tinuance of this security.
Lap Bells-After the front seat has
been adjusted to the satisfaction of
the driver, grasp the buckle end and
the Hat metal "eye" end of your indi-
vidual belt assembly and position the
belt across the lap as LOW ON THE
HIPS AS POSSIBLE. Insert the metal
eye into the open end of the buckle
until an audible snap is heard. Make
sure the connection is secure and
adjust the belt to a SNUG FIT by
pulling on the end of the belt protrud-
ing from the buckle. The snug and
low positions are essential in order
that the force exerted by the lap belt
in a collision may be spread over
the strong hip bone structure and not
across the soft abdominal area. For
retractor equipped belts, pull the re-
tractor half of the belt to a solid stop
to make sure that the belt webbing is
completely unwound from the retrac-
tor drum. then connect the belt and
