Four Wheel Drive Switch (Orange) (Optional)IMPORTANT: To prevent damage to the hydrostatic system, do not switch 4-Wheel Drive on or off while driving combine in third gear (road gear) at maximum travel speed. Move multi-function handle to less than half of maximum. When driving the combine in conditions which cause high pressures in the hydrostatic system and the combine slows down or stops, move multi-function handle to neutral and shift to a lower gear. Switch (A) controls 4-wheel drive. Push switch once to turn on and once to turn off. A lighted indicator (B) above the switch is on when the drive is engaged.
It is NORMAL for front wheels to lose traction and spin out before the rear wheels in most conditions. In extremely muddy conditions, it may be necessary to apply both brakes momentarily to increase hydrostatic pressure to the 4-wheel drive motors. When the drive is engaged, these approximate reductions in ground speed occur:

CAUTION:
Ground speed will increase when disengaging four-wheel drive and will decrease when engaging four-wheel drive.
