FEATURES AND CONTROLS

All Wheel Drive (AWD) System

Engaging the Front Gearcase

The AWD switch may be turned on or off while the vehicle is moving.

Initially, the vehicle’s electronic system will not enable the AWD until

the engine RPM is below 3100. Once enabled, the AWD remains

enabled until the AWD switch is turned off. If the switch is turned off

while the front gearcase is moving, it will not disengage until the rear

wheels regain traction.
Engage the AWD switch before getting into conditions where front

wheel drive may be needed. If the rear wheels are spinning, release the

throttle before switching to AWD.

CAUTION

Switching to AWD (or from TURF to 2X4) while the rear wheels

are spinning may cause severe drive shaft and gearcase

damage. Always switch to AWD (or to TURF from 2X4) while the

rear wheels have traction or are at rest.
