TURF MODE (IF EQUIPPED)
When operating in TURF mode, the inside rear wheel will rotate independently
from the outside wheel during turns. Operate in TURF mode only as needed to
protect smooth, level surfaces from tire damage. DO NOT operate in TURF
mode when climbing or descending hills, when sidehilling, or when operating on
uneven, loose, or slippery terrain such as sand, gravel, ice, snow, obstacles, and
water crossings. Always operate in ADC 4X4 or 4X4 on these types of terrain.
WARNING
Operating in TURF mode when on sloped, uneven, or loose terrain could
cause loss of control and result in serious injury or death. One rear wheel may
slip and lose traction or may lift up and grab when it touches the ground again.
ENGAGING 4X4
The 4X4 switch may be turned on or off while the vehicle is moving. Initially, the
vehicle's electronic system will not enable 4X4 until the engine RPM is below
3000. Once enabled, 4X4 remains enabled until the 4X4 switch is turned off. If
the switch is turned off while the demand drive unit is moving, it will not
disengage until the rear wheels regain traction.
Engage the 4X4 switch before getting into conditions where front wheel drive
may be needed. If the rear wheels are spinning, release the throttle before
switching to 4X4.
NOTICE
Switching to 4X4 or ADC 4X4 while the rear wheels are spinning may cause
severe drive shaft and gearcase damage. Always switch to 4X4 or ADC 4X4
while the rear wheels have traction or are at rest.
