Engaging 4X - Polaris Sportsman 9922551 Owner's Manual

FEATURES AND CONTROLS
All Wheel Drive (4X4) System

Engaging 4X4

The 4X4 switch may be turned on or off while the vehicle is moving.
4X4 will not engage until engine speed is below 3100 RPM. 4X4
remains engaged until the switch is turned off. There is no limit to the
length of time the vehicle may remain in 4X4.
If the switch is turned off while the demand drive unit is engaged, it will
not disengage until the rear wheels regain traction. Engage 4X4 before
getting into situations where maximum traction is needed. If the rear
wheels are spinning, release the throttle before switching to 4X4.
Switching to 4X4 while the rear wheels are spinning may cause severe drive
shaft and gearcase damage. Always switch to 4X4 while the rear wheels have
traction or are at rest.
