You can lock and unlock the differential when your vehicle is moving at a
constant speed of less than 25 mph (40 km/h) and while the wheels are
not slipping. Do not lock the differential when your vehicle is traveling
down steep grades and traction is minimal.
The differential lock and differential lock light automatically disengage at
speeds above 25 mph (40 km/h). The differential lock remains off until
either you restart your vehicle or you turn the differential lock switch off
then back on.
Turn the engine off and raise all drive wheels of the locker differential
axle in order to prevent your vehicle from moving when servicing the
wheels, tires or brakes. Axles equipped with a NoSPIN Detroit Locker
differential deliver power to both wheels even when only one wheel is on
the ground.
WARNING: Failure to raise all drive wheels with this type of
differential could cause the vehicle to move unexpectedly,
resulting in property damage, personal injury or death.
Take care to avoid sudden accelerations when both drive wheels are on a
slippery surface.
WARNING: Sudden accelerations on slippery surfaces could
cause the wheels to spin, the vehicle to turn sideways on a
crowned road surface or in a turn, possibly resulting in loss of vehicle
control and personal injury.
Fluid Temperature
Axle operating temperatures normally do not exceed 100°F (38°C). If
the operating temperature exceeds 230°F (110°C), the rate of axle
lubrication oxidation increases and shortens the life of the lubricant and
seals, requiring axle lubrication changes to become more frequent to
preserve the axle. Do not consistently run extreme pressure (EP)
lubricants above 230°F (110°C).
Axle Conversions
WARNING: When operating a loaded vehicle, the driver must
keep all adjustable axles on the ground at all times, supporting
their share of the vehicle's load. Failure to do so can overload other
axles, tires, wheels, springs, steering components, brakes and frames,
resulting in early component failure, loss of vehicle control, possible
property damage and personal injury.
