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
in the instrument cluster will
be on.
When in AWD, the demand
drive unit will automatically
engage any time the rear wheels lose traction. When the rear wheels
regain traction, the demand drive unit will automatically disengage.
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. See page 26.
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 AWD until the
engine RPM is below 3100. Once enabled, AWD remains enabled until
the AWD switch is turned off. If the switch is turned off while the
demand drive unit 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.
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.
