Longitudinal and transverse differential locks

– The longitudinal differential locks prevent individual axle lines from spin-
ning when driving on a slippery surface. With the 12 x 8 x 12 drive, the 5th
axle line drive is switched on and off at the same time.
– The transverse differential locks prevent individual wheels from spinning
when driving on a slippery surface.
Risk of damage to the differential locks!
Leave the transverse differential locks switched on only for as long as nec-
essary. Always switch off the transverse differential locks before driving on
a firm surface!
