Differential Lock OPERATION Locking the Differential The rear axle is equipped with a lockable differential that allows the operator to choose between an open differential or a closed differential. Locking the differential in slippery or low traction conditions helps improve traction. Press the top of the rocker switch to engage All Wheel Drive (AWD). Move the rocker switch to the center position to lock the differential and operate in two wheel drive (2WD). Press the bottom of the switch to unlock the differential and allow the rear drive wheels to operate independently (1WD). This mode of operation is well suited to turf driving or whenever aggressive traction is not required. 2WD CAUTION 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. 57
