12. Steering cylinder undersized or inadequate pressure; angle of articulation
excessive. Requires correction for safe driving.
13. Standard shift vehicle with “loose” driveline syndrome. Depressing clutch
while making very narrow radius turns may, on occasion, induce an
annoying driveline “cycling” condition in some standard shift vehicles that
have drivelines with higher degrees of “play” (looseness). Slower turning
speeds or clutching before the turn is made will reduce this symptom and
shifting into neutral will usually stop this condition.
14. Improper assembly of axle components; foreign matter in axle housing.
Check overall assembly of all axle components to be correct. Inspect for
any contamination and determine cause. Correct any problems as required.
15. High viscosity lubricant. Gear lubricant can thicken and cause sluggish
operation of the Powertrax No-Slip Traction System in very low
temperatures. For very cold weather applications, use the lightest oil the
axle manufacturer will allow. For extremely cold climates, use “heat
control” devices, or garaging, and carefully drive the vehicle for a few miles
on-road to warm up the oil before using the vehicle in more demanding
off-road conditions.
16. Improper weight distribution or overloading. Redistribute weight or
remove excess weight. Follow vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations
and conform to vehicle specifications.
