Using the Differential Lock Lever

CAUTION: Avoid injury! Chance of tipping the vehicle is increased when the differential lock is engaged. Do not attempt to turn the vehicle on slopes and hills. Do not operate the vehicle at high speeds.

The differential lock is used to provide better traction when the rear wheels of the vehicle start to slip. Engaging the differential lock lever locks the left and right rear axles together and causes both rear wheels to turn at equal speeds for maximum traction.

IMPORTANT: Avoid damage! To prevent damage to differential, do not engage differential lock when either rear wheel is slipping.

NOTE: Vehicle turning radius is increased when the differential lock is engaged.

To Engage Differential Lock:

• Stop vehicle.
• Pull up and hold differential lock lever in the raised position. Hold lever in the raised position as long as there is rear wheel slippage.

To Disengage Differential Lock:

• Lower differential lock lever.
