(2) Differential Lock

When resistance to the right and left tires are greatly different due to ground conditions or type of work, the tire with
less resistance slips and prevents the tractor from moving ahead. To compensate for this drawback, the differential
lock restricts the differential action and causes both rear axles to rotate as a unit.
When the differential lock pedal is stepped on, it causes the differential lock arm (6) and differential lock shaft (7)
to rotate, which will move the differential lock shift fork (8) and the differential lock shifter (2) toward the differential side
gear (9). The pins on the differential lock shifter (2) go into the holes in the differential case (3) to cause the differential
case (3), differential lock shifter (2) and differential side gear (9) to rotate as a unit.
Therefore, differential pinions (4), (11) are unable to rotate around differential pinion shaft (10) and identical
revolutions are transmitted to the right and left rear axle (1), (5).
