10 Learning Your Vehicle
MAgNA recommends that you contact your local ROXOR
authorized dealer for information about ORV training courses in
your area, or visit the Recreational Off-Highway Vehicle Association
(ROHVA) website (http://www. rohva. org). All operators should
familiarize themselves with the handling of the Mahindra ROXOR
Offroad Side x Side in a controlled environment before they go off-
roading. Find an area free of obstacles to practice and perform the
exercises listed below. And never perform these exercises with a
load in the cargo area or with a trailer attached.
Starting the Engine –
Depress clutch fully, insert the ignition key
into the ignition switch, then turn the ignition key to the
START position. Release the ignition key immediately when the
engine has started.
Do not hold ignition key in START position for more than 10
seconds at a time, as this can overheat the starter and damage it.
Improper use may result in a limited warranty claim being denied.
Never use an engine starting aid such as ether. Engine damage will
result which would void all of your warranty coverage.
If the engine does not start after repeated attempts, refer to
section 27 Troubleshooting.
Manual Transmission –
If you have never driven a vehicle with a
manual transmission, learning on the ROXOR while driving off-road
is not advisable. A manual transmission requires the operator to
shift gears themselves, with proper timing and coordination. This
activity must become second nature, in a controlled environment,
before operating on difficult terrain.
The clutch pedal is located at the far left and is required to shift
gears. Always fully depress the clutch pedal while shifting gears,
then gradually release the clutch pedal to engage the transmission
while increasing the engine idle to around 1500 RPM. Change one
gear at a time in ascending or descending order. As a general rule,
you should shift gears about every 10 mph increase or decrease in
speed. When switching from a forward gear to reverse, or from
reverse to a forward gear, come to a complete stop.
Never try to start the ROXOR without being seated in the driver’s
seat with the clutch pedal fully depressed and the parking brake
set to help prevent a runaway situation in the event the throttle is
stuck.
Turning –
Overly aggressive turning frequently results in accidents.
You should practice turning in both directions at various speeds to
experience the lateral force differences. Speed and steering input
will affect lateral force, and should try to minimize this force for
safety. Decelerate before entering a turn and accelerate slowly as
you exit the turn. You should also practice U-turns and turning
while driving in reverse.
