Driving Instructions

WARNING

•Operator must control vehicle speed when going downhill.

•Never shift the vehicle out of the FORWARD position while going downhill. If you do, you will not be able to shift into the REVERSE position or back into the FORWARD position until stopped.

DRIVE TRAIN OPERATION

The 4X2 vehicle features a drive train with a locking rear differential. The 4X4 vehicle also features an open front differential. In normal operation, the rear differential drives the two wheels at varying speeds as required. Under conditions with low traction, the differential lock may be engaged allowing both wheels to become locked and drive at the same speed. On the 4x4 vehicle, the front differential may also be engaged to provide additional traction in slippery conditions. See following WARNING.

WARNING

•When servicing the vehicle with part of the vehicle on jack stands, do not operate the engine with the Forward/Reverse handle in either the FORWARD or REVERSE position. The four-wheel drive system may engage any wheel(s), front or rear, depending on the mode selected. See (Figure 3).

•The diameter of all tires on the vehicle must be equal; otherwise the four-wheel drive system will not operate as intended and could result in severe personal injury or death. Never install tires of different diameters on the vehicle.

•Reduced steering control can occur when the front differential is locked.

STOPPING THE VEHICLE

To stop the vehicle, release the accelerator pedal and press the brake pedal until the vehicle comes to a complete stop.

See following WARNING and CAUTION.

WARNING

•Driving through water may affect the brakes. After driving through water, check effectiveness of the brakes by gently pressing the brake pedal. If the vehicle does not slow down at the normal rate, continue to press the brake pedal until the brakes dry out and normal performance returns.

CAUTION

•When stopped on a hill, use the brake pedal to hold your position. Do not use the accelerator pedal to hold position.
