UNLOCKING THE DIFFERENTIAL (TURF MODE)
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 AWD on these types of terrain.
WARNING
Operating in TURF mode (if equipped) 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.
Press the bottom of the switch to unlock the differential and allow the rear drive
wheels to operate independently (1WD). When the rear differential is unlocked,
the rear wheels can rotate at different speeds. Unlock the differential to make
maneuvering easier and minimize damage to turf.
NOTICE
Damage to the differential can occur if it is engaged while the vehicle is
traveling at high speeds or while the rear wheels are spinning. Slow the vehicle
to nearly stopped before engaging the differential.
WARNING
Never operate in TURF mode (if equipped) while operating on a hill or other
irregular terrain. Always move the AWD switch to AWD before ascending or
descending a hill.
