4 - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Differential lock system
The differential lock gives equal power to both rear wheels and is used in conditions where traction is poor.
NOTE: The differential lock will release automatically when the load on the axle is removed.
NOTICE: You can cause damage to the rear axle if you try to engage the differential lock when the machine is turning
or if one rear wheel is rotating faster than the other rear wheel.
NOTICE: You can cause damage to the rear axle if you
are brake steering with the differential lock engaged.
If operating through a soft or muddy area:
1. Make sure that the machine is moving in a straight
direction and that one of the rear wheels is not rotating
faster than the other rear wheel.
2. Push and hold the differential lock button.
NOTE: Use either one of the differential switches
shown.
3. After you have moved through the area, release the
button.
If the machine is stuck:
1. Reduce the engine speed and confirm that the front
wheels are not rotating.
2. Push and hold the differential lock button.
3. Release the button once traction has been regained.
