For best fuel economy, place the hubs in the free mode and shifter in 2hi. To use the 4wd, turn the hubs to the lock position, and place the shifter in 4hi. 4Lo is for very low speeds when great power is needed. Chances are you will never need it. Make sure to always use take it out of 4wd when in dry conditions.
