This includes the application of basic vehicle recovery techniques and maintenance. 1. Plan for four wheel driving. 1.1. Determine structural and handling differences between a conventional two wheel drive and a four wheel drive vehicle. 1.2. Identify the purpose and use of front wheel hubs where appropriate, recovery points and mounting features. 1.3. Identify factors affecting tyre size, fitment, rating, and pressure. 1.4. Identify hazards associated with incorrect use of vehicle features or equipment. 1.5. Select equipment and check working condition according to manufacturer's recommendations and organisational policies and procedures. 1.6. Access relevant sources to interpret weather and environmental information and determine activity plan. 1.7. Determine food and water requirements according to principles of nutrition and contextual issues. 2. Perform pre-departure checks. 2.1. Perform routine pre-departure checks and take action to correct any deficiency. 2.2. Apply safe vehicle loading practices and secure personal items according to organisational policies and procedures. 2.3. Advise passengers of safety precautions to be taken when traversing rough terrain according to relevant legislation and organisational policies and procedures. 3.
