OPERATION

All Wheel Drive (AWD)

Locking the Differential

NOTICE: Damage to the differential can occur if it is engaged while the vehicle is traveling at high

speeds or while the rear wheels are spinning. Slow the vehicle to nearly stopped before
engaging the differential.

Locking the differential in slippery or low traction conditions helps improve traction.

Move

the rocker switch to the center position (2WD) to lock the differential and operate in rear
wheel drive. On 6X6 models, all four rear wheels will be drive wheels.

Press the bottom of the switch to unlock the differential and allow the rear drive wheels to
operate independently. This mode of operation is well suited to turf driving or whenever
aggressive traction is not required. On 6X6 models, the center wheels will remain drive
wheels.
