Operating the Traction Drive
CAUTION
If the traction drive is not properly adjusted, the
machine may move in the direction opposite of
what you intended, causing injury and/or property
damage.
Carefully check the traction drive and adjust it
properly, if necessary; refer to Checking the Traction
Drive Operation in Setup for more information.
Important:
If the machine moves when the traction
lever is in the released position, check the traction cable
(refer to Checking and Adjusting the Traction Cable) or
take the machine to an Authorized Service Dealer for
service.
Important:
To operate the traction drive, you must
operate the machine with the self-propel feature
engaged. Refer to Freewheeling or Using the Self-propel
Drive.
1. To engage the traction drive, squeeze the left hand
(traction) lever to the handgrip (Figure 34).
Figure 34
2. To stop the traction drive, release the traction lever.
Using the Wheel Clutch Levers
The wheel clutch levers allow you to momentarily disengage
the drive to one or both wheels with the traction drive lever
still engaged. This enables you to turn and maneuver the
machine easily.
Note:
Holding down the traction lever against the handle
engages the traction drive to both wheels.
To turn the machine to the right, lift up on the right wheel
clutch lever and squeeze it toward the handle (Figure 35).
Figure 35
Note:
This disengages the drive to the right wheel while
the left wheel continues driving, and the machine turns to
the right.
Note:
Similarly, squeezing the left wheel clutch lever turns
the machine to the left.
When you complete the turn, release the wheel clutch lever,
and the drive re-engages both wheels (Figure 36).
Figure 36
Momentarily squeezing and releasing the left or right wheel
clutch lever also allows for steering adjustments to keep the
machine going in a straight line, especially in deep snow.
Squeezing both wheel clutch levers simultaneously disengages
the drive to both wheels. This enables you to manually move
the machine backward without stopping to shift it into a
reverse gear. It also allows you to maneuver and transport the
machine more easily when the engine is not running.
Operating the Speed Selector
The speed selector has 6 forward and 2 reverse gears. To
change speeds, release the traction lever and shift the speed
selector lever to the desired position (Figure 37). The lever
locks in a notch at each speed selection.
