Right and forward and you are in 4wd Lo and the diff is still open. Move the shifter to the left and you have now locked the center diff with forward motion engaging Lo or Hi as described above. Under no circumstances should you drive around on dry ground with the center diff in the locked position. This should only be used in situations where traction is marginal otherwise you will do damage to the drivetrain.
I don't know what you mean by regular drive. Did you get an owners manual with the truck? If so, you should take the time to familiarize yourself with the unique features of your truck. Alternatively, take the time to peruse www.rangerovers.net.

i did not recieve a owners manual, i know it is full-time 4wd drive, that is my problem! the truck will not drive in FT4WD, the only way i can get the vehicle to move forward or backwards is with the shifter moved up and to the left 4lo locked with the light on, or down to the left 4hi locked and the light comes on. when im in regular full time 4wd drive the shifter should be over to the bottom right correct? 4wd hi, open diff is the normal driving position for the shifter, so i thought. that then becomes my problem, no movement, i cant drive it.
thanks, matt
