FEATURES AND CONTROLS

All Wheel Drive (AWD) System

The All Wheel Drive system is

controlled by the AWD switch.

When the switch is on 2X4, the

ATV is in two-wheel drive at all

times. When the switch is on

AWD, the ATV is in all wheel

drive and the AWD indicator light

will be on.
When in AWD, the front hubs

will automatically engage any time the rear wheels lose traction. When

the rear wheels regain traction, the front hubs will automatically disen-

gage. There is no limit to the length of time the vehicle may remain in

AWD.

Tip: The override switch allows activation of AWD in reverse if the AWD switch

is on.

Engaging AWD

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 hubs are moving, the hubs 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.

NOTICE: Switching to AWD while the rear wheels are spinning may cause

severe drive shaft and gearcase damage. Always switch to AWD

while the rear wheels have traction or are at rest.
