two-wheel drive to four-wheel drive and vice-versa.
Select the appropriate drive according to the ter-
rain and the conditions.
●
“2WD” (two-wheel drive): Power is supplied to
the rear wheels.
●
“4WD” (four-wheel drive): Power is supplied to
the rear and front wheels.
To change from two-wheel drive to four-wheel
drive, stop the ATV and push the switch in to the
“4WD” position. Then, the four-wheel-drive indica-
tor “
” comes on in the multifunction display.
To change from four-wheel drive to two-wheel
drive, stop the ATV and push the switch in to the
“2WD” position.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
All wheels turn at the same speed when the
differential is locked, so it takes more effort
to turn the ATV. The effort needed to turn in-
creases with the riding speed. You may lose
control and have an accident if you cannot
make a sharp enough turn for the speed you
are traveling.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Always ride at a slow speed when the ATV is
in four-wheel-drive differential gear lock, and
allow extra time and distance for maneuvers.
