Disengaging Awd - Polaris Ranger 4x4 700 EFI Owner's Manual

OPERATION
All Wheel Drive (AWD)
The illuminated amber AWD switch indicates
that the vehicle is in AWD.
When the AWD switch is on, the front wheels
will automatically engage any time the rear
wheels lose traction. When the rear wheels
regain traction, the front wheels will automati-
cally disengage.
There is no limit to the length of time the vehicle
may remain in AWD.
Initially, the vehicle's electronic system will not enable the AWD until
the engine RPM is below 3100. Once enabled, the AWD remains
enabled until the AWD switch is turned off. If the switch is turned off
while the front gearcase is moving, it will not disengage until the rear
wheels regain traction.
Engage the AWD before getting into conditions where front wheel drive
may be needed. If the rear wheels are spinning, release the throttle
before switching to AWD.
Switching to AWD while the rear wheels are spinning may cause severe drive
shaft and clutch damage. Always switch to AWD while the rear wheels have
traction or are at rest.

Disengaging AWD

Under certain conditions, it may be possible for the front gearcase to
remain locked unnecessarily. This condition causes increased steering
effort and some vehicle speed restriction. If the front gearcase remains
locked after following these instructions, return the vehicle to your
dealer for service.
1. Stop the vehicle.
2. Operate in reverse for at least 10 feet.
3. Stop completely.
4. Shift into low gear and drive forward.
