Selector Switch (2Wd/4Wd); Differential Lock - Arctic Cat 2008 Prowler Owner's Manual

NOTE: The high range is for normal riding with light loads. The low
range is for carrying heavy loads or trailer towing. Compared to
HIGH range, the LOW range position provides slower speed and
greater torque to the wheels.
Always shift into low range when operating on wet or uneven terrain,
when towing or pushing heavy loads, and when using a plow. Failure
to follow this caution may result in premature V-belt failure or in dam-
age to related drive system components.
3. To engage reverse gear from neutral, move the shift lever to the left; then
rearward into the Reverse position.
Always come to a complete stop before attempting to shift from one
range to the other or into reverse. Always shift on level ground, or
engage the brake lever lock before shifting into another range or into
reverse.

Selector Switch (2WD/4WD)

The 2WD/4WD selector allows the opera-
tor to operate the vehicle in either two-
wheel drive (rear wheels) or four-wheel
drive (all wheels). For normal riding on
flat, dry, hard surfaces, two-wheel drive
should be sufficient. In situations when
additional traction is necessary, four-wheel
drive would be the desired choice.
To either engage or disengage the front
wheels, move the switch to the 4WD position or to the 2WD position.
Do not attempt to either engage or disengage the front differential
while the vehicle is moving.

Differential Lock

The differential lock allows the operator to mechanically lock the differential to
apply equal power to both front wheels. To engage the differential lock, lift the
handle to the LOCK position. To disengage the differential lock, lower the handle
to the UNLOCK position.
