EBU00062 NOTE: G When the switch is set to "LOCK", the differential gear lock indicator light will flash until the differential gear is locked. G When the indicator light is flashing, turning the handlebar back and forth will help the differential gear lock to engage. G Riding before the differential gear lock is properly engaged (e.g., when the indicator light is flashing) will cause the engine speed to be limited until engagement is complete. G When the ATV is in 4WD-LOCK, the maximum traveling speed is limited to 35 km/h (22 mph). However, if conditions require full engine power to be available, push and hold the override switch to disable the 4WD-LOCK speed limiter. (See pages 4-8-4-9 for a detailed explanation of this switch.) _ _ Throttle lever Once the engine is running, movement of the throttle lever will increase the engine speed. Regulate the speed of the machine by varying the throttle position. Because the throttle is spring-loaded, the machine will decelerate, and the engine will return to an idle any time the hand is removed from the throttle lever. 1. Throttle lever 4-13
