- Pressure ON/Spring OFF Type
4 Wheel Drive Operation
This clutch is of the 'Pressure-ON (4WD)/Spring-
OFF (2WD)' type. The clutch is engaged and
disengaged by introducing or dumping pressurised
oil behind piston C via a solenoid valve A. The
solenoid valve is operated by a switch in the cab.
When the switch is in the 4 wheel drive position,
solenoid valve A is energised. The energised
solenoid A1 causes the valve spool to move and
form a connection between ports 3 and 2.
