Differential Lock
On tractor vehicles
How to Engage the Differential Lock
Always stop the vehicle completely to activate
or deactivate the differential lock. Activate the
differential lock before running into slippery road
conditions. Ensure that the road is not slippery
and any wheel is not skidding or slipping.
What Are the Points To Be Considered
When The Differential Lock Is Activated?
You shall monitor whether the differential lock
is completely activated or deactivated from
the warning light on the instrument panel and
use the differential lock by considering the
necessary distance before entering to rough
road conditions. Vehicle speed shall not exceed
20km/h while the differential is active. Do not
use differential lock on paved roads, and never
perform turns when the locks are engaged.
CAUTION
Deactivate the differential lock when driving the
tractor vehicles down the slopes. Trailer may be
folded due to the loss of the vehicle dynamics.
How to Disengage the Differential Lock
Vehicle shall be stopped and differential lock
shall be disengaged after making sure that
the vehicle moved far away from the slippery
surface. Differential Lock shall be disengaged
when the warning light on the instrument
panel is turned off after you have pressed the
switch on the center console. Deactivation
of the differential lock is performed when the
warning light on the instrument panel is turned
off and this may take about 1 km sometimes.
WARNING
When the differential lock is active completely,
vehicle will have a tendency to move outwards
of the turn while turning. Always disengage
differential lock while turning. Otherwise, the
differential of your vehicle may brake and you
may require road assistance.
